It is where we prepare food, wash dishes, eat and socialize. It’s the hub of the home, the nerve center if you will, and the place where everyone inevitably ends up, whether you’re hosting a dinner party or just a regular Tuesday dinner.
It is your kitchen and it should reflect your personality and tastes like any other room in the house. They say the kitchen is one of the most important rooms in any home, and it’s no wonder it’s the busiest, messiest, and usually the one that houses the most “stuff.” With so many options available, it’s hard to narrow down what you want in a dream kitchen, so here are some ideas to help.
A kitchen island can be a blessing, especially if you need more counter space and storage. An island can be mobile or fixed and can even offer a different space for your sink. They make great places to store items, great areas for a breakfast bar or a place to do homework, and they complete the look of the kitchen while being ultra-functional in the process.
Custom cabinets can make your space shine and use every inch of space you want as they are built on a project-by-project basis. If you want soaring cabinets that go all the way to the ceiling, that’s what you get, if you need a slim slider for trays and flatware that fits in just the right place, you can get that too. Everything personalized, everything just for you. A wonderful addition to any kitchen.
Sun Rooms are great additions to any kitchen, doubling as dining rooms or breakfast nooks. Imagine your kitchen flooded with light and with all that extra space for entertaining or just enjoying the outdoors from inside. Most of today’s sunrooms can be used year-round and add every important square footage to your home, regardless of where they are located. Since kitchens get so much use, it’s always a good plan to create more space in there.
New hardware. While it may seem like a simple thing, getting new hardware for your existing cabinets can make your entire kitchen look like new again. Going a step further and revamping the cabinets can also alter the entire look of the room, and getting new lighting fixtures and/or plumbing fixtures can also transform the look without breaking the budget.
