It’s been said a thousand times, but it’s still true: the kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s where the family gathers to chat, eat or have coffee with friends. Memories are made in kitchens. Most people’s homes have a kitchen that was designed for and by someone else. A plain vanilla, ‘cookie cutter’ kitchen does not incorporate the features that would reflect the way the owner really lives. When many people do attempt to update their kitchens, the changes are only cosmetic: new paint or new flooring, perhaps.
How a kitchen really functions is the backbone of the kitchen. Changes require thought and consultation with the family. It’s likely that family members have unique ideas and desires that should be incorporated into a plan. Many homeowners need to figure out how to make limited space work better for them. Can two people share the space without getting in each other’s way? Is there room for an island? Would there be a more efficient way to lay out the appliances? Uncluttering a kitchen makes it seem larger; modern cabinets can be customized to offer storage for the small appliances and cooking equipment currently using up counter space.
New countertops are a major part of any kitchen transformation. Once again, consider function before aesthetics. It is very likely that the type of countertop desired will be available in the perfect color. laminate countertops are probably the type of countertop most people grew up with and are available in numerous styles and colors. Solid surface countertops are very easy to clean and resist stains. Granite countertops are incredibly tough. After all, this is a natural material that daily stands up to all weather conditions. The natural colors and veining add a luxurious look to any kitchen.
