Modern traditionalist with a hint of rustic. Heck, I don't know...design style isn't something I normally think about. :D

I can run with that...or if you are joking post a picture of your living room/dining room. BTW where are your counter top appliances?
 
I'd agree on quartz/granite counter top. Something light, not too busy.

Back-splash, agree with SD. Got to go. Might want to do some light grey, or white subway tile.

Might also want to look at painting the cabinets. I'm more of an oak/finished wood fan, but I realize that is considered "dated" these days. They look like they are an off-white, or "cream" color? Maybe something that contrasts with the counter top you go with.

Yep, in that pic the cabinets are an off-white color. They have since been painted white so they look much better..
 
Another condo 'mystery' question....my clothes dryer vents to the outside over about a 20ft run. I've noticed the last two times I've done laundry that after the dryer finishes (I think...maybe before it's done) that water is dripping from a spot in the ceiling where the vent pipe runs through. The exterior hole where the pipe exits isn't sealed very well at all. Is it likely the water is being caused by condensation due to the exterior vent hole not being sealed properly or is it likely a bigger issue?

Thanks!

Does it occur when it is raining? If not probably condensation since it seems to happen when the dryer is in use. You can seal the opening better where the surrounding air is mixing with the heated pipe. You can insulate the vent pipe. You can replace with double walled vent pipe. You can install a dehumidifier in the area if it is condensate from the interior air. Out of these suggestions the double walled pipe is the best fix but also the most dollar/labor intensive. Oh yeah you can hang your clothes on a clothesline also. Good luck.
