TIPS & TRICKS FROM OUR SHOP TO YOUR HOME

Compliment Countertops with Cabinets

Whether you are getting new cabinetry for your kitchen or looking to refurbish your old ones. There are many decisions to make. Does it match your countertops? Are you following the latest trends? How do you feel when you enter your space? 

The first decision you have to make when choosing cabinetry is whether you want to match your home decor or go in a different direction. Most home owners go with an overall design of the house. However, some choose to go in totally different direction to renew the entire house decor. 

There are many style options to consider, but the most popular fall into three categories: modern, traditional and vintage.

Modern Kitchens

When you are looking to create or build a modern kitchen, you will have to balance minimalism with practicality in order to get a functional kitchen. These days, we are seeing more technology in the kitchen. Your initial thought might be of those expensive refrigerators or smart homes but today you can have technology integrated to a faucet, to the lighting, or any appliance.

Traditional Kitchens

Traditional kitchens are the most popular kitchen style. It incorporates a variety of centuries, but is mainly a combination of comfortable furniture, classic designs and casual decor. It is characterized by warm colors and symmetrical lines. The traditional look allows homeowners to use some of their original appliances while updating the appearances with a new finish and hardware.

Vintage Kitchens

Usually vintage kitchens feature older appliances, dated fixtures, interesting floor material and are not a usual pick. A vintage kitchen could be one of the less expensive kitchen renovations. It is not about having a new kitchen, but  about playing with what you have to create a fresh look. A key factor of turning the kitchen from old to fresh and alive is to add plants, LOTS of plants.
