Design Mixer
Four steps: pick a room, pick a view of it, tap your choices, then save your mix with a short name. The picture changes on the spot, and a pick carries to every view of the room that has it.
What’s new
New on 13 November. The green Zelora herringbone (KB-38) now comes in four more colours, everywhere the green one is (every kitchen backsplash view and the bathroom shower walls): KB-49 chestnut brown, KB-50 coastal blue, KB-51 marine blue and KB-52 mint green. The near-black olive green with black pulls (WT-47) is now on the bathroom vanities and the linen cabinet too. On a phone, the picture and its buttons sit side by side, each row of choices scrolls sideways, and saving opens over the page.
The two bathrooms are here now. Pick a room above the picture. Each bathroom opens with a row of styles: a style sets the tile, the floor, the vanity and the fittings in one tap, in every view of that room, and you can change any of them afterwards.
New on 12 November. The island has its own row: it follows the cabinets until you pick something else for it. Two switches sit under it: Island front turns the fluted slats on in whatever colour the island has, and Island ends runs the counter stone down the ends of the island as a waterfall. Also new: white framed doors (WT-28), the framed doors with black pulls (WT-27), and the framed doors and the cream slab (WT-23, KB-43) in all five views.
Added that evening. Five backsplashes are now in every kitchen view: the navy (KB-1), the two charcoals (KB-31, KB-32), the greige (KB-36) and the veined slab (KB-37). Upstairs, the mirror over the vanity shows the shower tile you pick, for twelve of the tiles (thirteen since the green herringbone, KB-38, was added). The fluted island front now shows the island's own wood, and the inside of a waterfall end sits in the countertop's shade.
Lighter options, 12 November. The kitchen now has a Styles row. The first is a mid-brown mix (FL-36, WT-23, KB-41), then four lighter mixes to compare with it, and the dark start to go back to. New to build them from: four lighter wood-look floors (FL-39 to FL-42), five warm white and beige tiles (KB-44 to KB-48), and two more framed cabinet looks, natural light oak (WT-33) and warm greige (WT-34). The almond tile (KB-41) and the five new tiles are in every kitchen view.
Painted dark greens, 12 November. Five dark greens, in the Cabinets row and in the Island row: WT-41 leafy green, WT-38 forest green, WT-42 hunter green, WT-39 muted dark green and WT-40 near-black olive green. On the cabinets they keep brass pulls. Three of them also come with black pulls, painted matte black by computer: WT-45 hunter green, WT-46 muted dark green and WT-47 near-black olive green. Each is the greige framed doors (WT-34) re-coloured by computer to a paint colour close to a Sherwin-Williams colour. They are paint colours, not products, and they work with the fluted front too. (The three sage greens of earlier that evening read blue-grey and were taken out.)

Notes on the pictures
| View | What you can change |
|---|
- How it works. Every choice was drawn once from this exact camera with only that one thing changed. The page cuts that thing out and lays it over the base picture, so several changes can sit in one picture.
- The island. It follows the cabinets unless you pick something in the Island row. Any cabinet look can go on the island alone.
- The fluted front. Upright rounded slats, an inch and a half wide, on the side of the island where the stools are. They are not drawn by the image tool (its slats came out uneven and shimmered on screen). They are placed by geometry from the camera position of each view, so they are even. Their light and shade are laid over the island front as each cabinet look draws it, so the grain and the colour are that look's own. A framed door look shows on the fluted front as its wood or paint only, without the frames.
- Waterfall ends. The counter stone turned down at the ends of the island, as deep as the countertop. Every view looks at the island from the stool side, so what you see is the edge of the slab and the piece of it that stands out past the cabinets. The piece that stands out past the cabinets is seen from its inside, under the 13.5 in of countertop that overhangs the stools, so it is shown in the countertop's shade. Drawn in four views, and once per counter on the sink wall and in the working corner. The dining view shows neither end of the island, so nothing changes there.
- Backsplash beside the front door. That piece of wall has no upper cabinets, and the image tool stopped the tile at a different height each time. Every tile there is fitted to one field that ends 51.5 in above the floor, the height the dining-window view shows for the same wall. The fit stretches or squeezes the pattern in height, by up to three tenths.
- The bathrooms. Upstairs has two views (shower, vanity). Downstairs has three: the sink and toilet, and the two walk-in shower layouts, DB-2 (full length) and DB-3 (smaller, with a linen cabinet). There is no tub in either. A pick carries to every view of the same room that has it: the floor you choose at the sink is the floor beside the shower.
- Styles. The ten combinations (BC-1 to BC-10) and the three kept looks (BL-1, BL-2, BL-6) are styles of the upstairs bath. The NS and DN styles are new and follow where the kitchen has gone: the charcoal and the green herringbone, the taupe tile, the cream slab, framed and fluted fronts. The kitchen's styles are a mid-brown mix, four lighter mixes made from the options found on 12 November, and the dark start. A style is only a starting point.
- The mirror upstairs shows the shower. Twelve wall tiles are drawn in that reflection: the dark ones and the coloured ones (UB-1, UB-2, UB-3, UB-12, BL-1, BL-2, BL-6, DS-4, DS-6, KB-39, BW-5, BW-7). With a pale tile, or a tile that goes on one wall only, the mirror keeps the pale tile of the starting picture. The two tall mirrors show the tile you picked. The two round mirrors were drawn with their own reflection, which stays pale.
- Fittings. Nickel, brass and chrome change the shower fittings, the faucets, the pulls and the towel bar. They are cut out tightly and laid on top of everything else, so on a pale vanity a pull can show a hairline of the old black one. In the small-shower view the pulls of the linen cabinet stay black whatever you pick.
- Drawn and tinted. On the sink wall the cabinet looks WT-1 to WT-16 are each their own drawing. In the other four views the tones (WT-1 to WT-5) are the walnut picture re-coloured to match the drawn tone, so the grain stays the walnut's. The six chocolate variations (WT-17 to WT-22) are tints in every view. White oak (WT-15), the framed doors with brass pulls (WT-23), the white framed doors (WT-28), the framed doors in natural light oak (WT-33) and the framed doors in warm greige (WT-34) are drawn in all five. WT-33 and WT-34 are looks, not products. WT-27 is the WT-23 drawing with its pulls painted black by computer, so the wood is the very same picture. The other looks (grain, gloss, Shaker, smoked oak, and WT-24) are on the sink wall only.
- From pictures. KB-36, KB-37, CT-1, CT-2, FL-31, FL-32 and the cabinet looks that say so are drawn from pictures, not from products. They show the look.
- Real products. KB-38 to KB-48, CT-3, CT-4 and FL-33 to FL-42 are things you can buy, each drawn from the shop's own photo of it, and each has a shop link. KB-49 to KB-52 are real too, the same Zelora tile in other colours, but re-coloured by computer from the green one (KB-38) rather than drawn. Each floor is drawn through the arch. In the three other views with a floor, nine of them (FL-34 to FL-42) are a drawn floor re-coloured to that floor's colour, so there the plank width and the grain are the drawn floor's, not the product's. FL-33 is through the arch only.
- Where each thing was drawn. A choice shows in a view only if it was drawn there. A pick you make carries to every view that has it.
- Reflections stay put. The shine on the floor and the counters still shows a little of the original cabinets and tile. Look at the surfaces themselves, not their reflections.
- The plain backsplash is a stand-in. The pale tile in the starting picture is not one of the choices. It is only there so the wall is not bare.
- A screen is not a sample. Colours here are close, not exact. Get the tile and a cabinet door sample in your hand before you order.
