Hot Kitchens

 

You probably spend a great deal of your day in the kitchen, so naturally you would want this area to feel warm, cheerful and inviting. Cabinets and countertops make up the overall personality of a kitchen. A simple cabinet upgrade or countertop replacement can make your kitchen feel entirely new. You might even want to open up the space in a more closed-off design by knocking out a wall and rearranging your counter layout to include a kitchen island. A risk-free way to plan a variety of design ideas and pick the right one is to use the latest in cabinet design software. This allows you to see your virtual kitchen as it looks now, and then make the changes to realistically see how your plans turn out.

 

Trendy Bathrooms

 

Cabinets, counters, mirrors and fixtures can all use some freshening up to turn your bathroom into a relaxation haven. The best thing about a bathroom makeover is that most changes are remarkably affordable, and even the simplest change can make it look like a whole new room. If you have the space, consider replacing your old bathtub with a roomy garden tub for those days when all you want is a nice long soak. Get rid of your outdated counters and cabinets in favor of the latest styles. Upgrade your old light fixture for bright and trendy track lighting above the sink.

 

Window and Wall Treatments

 

Sprucing up your walls and windows is one of the most affordable, yet noticeable, ways to make over your home. The white walls that were so in style a few years ago appear dull and old-fashioned today. Many modern homes sport cheerful or homey colors on walls. A lighter color, such as sunshine yellow or warm beige, can provide the finishing touch to a living room or kitchen. Your bathroom may look especially relaxing when the walls are painted lavender or sage green. You might want to try an accent wall in your dining room or living room to add richness, such as deep burgundy or a daring striped pattern. To finish up, most windows look great framed by light draperies or covered with wood blinds, instead of heavy curtains or flimsy metal blinds.
