As they say, “the way to the heart is through the stomach,” it becomes even more evident that kitchens are one of the most important aspects of any house. After all, who wouldn’t want to have a perfectly designed space to whip up some delicious meals throughout the day?
No matter how perfect the floor plans or the wall colors maybe, the first thing that draws any homeowner into a property is the kitchen. It’s a space to cook and eat and a place that brings friends and family together. Hence, when it comes to kitchen remodeling, Southwest Ranches has some of the best services in town. However, before we get into it, here are some ideas compiled to help your kitchen get the much-needed makeover.
Unconventional Shelving
Gone are the days when boring shelves and storage spaces dominated the entire kitchen. Adding unconventional shelving is a great way to elevate your kitchen’s functionality while livening it up on the whole.
A large kitchen calls for befitting cabinetry and hanging storage facilities. However, the same can also be implemented in smaller kitchens with limited space. Hanging open shelves allow you to further enhance the storage space without overloading the countertops and taking away that minimalistic kitchen look you have always desired. Additionally, you can also install a pantry room in the pantry area as you will be able to store your bulk purchases there instead of overwhelming the cabinets.
Tile Backsplashes
Cooking exquisite meals is surely a great way to bring your family together, but the sputtering and splatters can damage your perfectly clean, white kitchen tiles and wood panels in the background.
A tile backsplash, however, if placed right, can act as a layer of protection against grime and moisture. The best part about tile backsplashes is that they can be both pre-installed or used as temporary solutions while cooking, based on your needs. Moreover, you can also opt for removable ones to use at your convenience. Again, keeping your kitchen clean and shiny may require you to laminate or use wax to protect both your backsplash and walls.
A Hint of Metallic Hardware
There’s a certain amount of flair that metallic structures add to your kitchen. Whether you choose to go for a modern or a contemporary look, metallic hardware can fit into any theme.
There’s no doubt about how appealing a sink with a granite or marble finish looks. However, the way a stainless steel metallic sink goes with the appliances is unmatched. You can further enhance your kitchen’s aesthetic value by adding a stainless steel faucet.
Statement Lighting
To ensure that any space in your home gets a décor up to its valor, you must install the right lighting. It isn’t a place you can decorate with extravagant pieces of artwork when it comes to a kitchen. Sometimes all it needs is lighting and fixtures to complete the puzzle. Pendant lights are the ultimate “date night” lights you can consider installing to give your space a contemporary touch. On the other hand, adding too many decoration pieces will only take up space and get in the way when you move around the kitchen.
Kitchen Island
While slabs and countertops are useful, adding a kitchen island does wonders for your spacing issues. One of the best parts is that it opens your space up while maintaining the illusion of closed functionality.
This means that you can add more space for laying cooked items down as well as for seating. Moreover, it’s never too late to try adding open shelves on the side to help you store the cheese grater, butcher block, chopping board, and other small items.
Glass Doors
When you think of a contemporary kitchen, you immediately have an image of a minimalistic and open space that caters to all your appliances well. However, another feature most modern kitchens consist of is laminate or glass doors.
As opposed to what people commonly associate with a glass door, it isn’t always plain. You can put your penchant for art to good use and decorate the panel with simple designs.
