Houzz is an excellent source of information and ideas. We wanted to share some recent articles with you. “A U-shaped kitchen, sometimes called a C-shaped kitchen, comprises workspace on three adjoining walls of cabinetry, with an open end for access. In a small U-shaped kitchen, the opposing cabinet runs effectively become a galley layout, but with one end closed off. This galley format works for larger kitchens too, although if the opposing runs are too far apart, this can reduce the kitchen’s efficiency. Is a U-shaped layout the right choice for your kitchen — and, if so, how can you best make the most of it?” Click here to read the full article from...

Cabinet Doors – Today’s Best Look And Fit In January, we wrote about the surge in Shaker style cabinets. Defined as a full overlay or euro-style doors, they’re easy to personalize with a multitude of hardware options yet fit the trend towards simplicity and functionality. But let’s not forget there’re other options. Here we discuss the three major cabinet door mountings with some pros and cons of each. Cabinet Door Lingo As far back as the early 1900s, Inset Cabinet Doors were built into most kitchens. Held in place by hinges mounted on (or just inside the cabinet face frame), the door and drawer are on the same plane as the leading edge of the cabinet box. Usually, the hinges are visible when the door is shut. This style reduces cabinet space inside, and smaller drawers and hardware require extra blocking in the box. Price wise, it costs more than the others. However, this simple, traditional look is over 100 years old. Hardly a fad, Inset Cabinet doors aren’t going away anytime soon. Modernizing the inset door created Partial Overlay Cabinet Doors. Just as the name suggests, they partially cover the finished face frame. The ability to install more functional hardware allows a little more room for storage space over Inset Cabinet Doors. The problem is with the overall look. The space between doors and drawers gives the appearance of dotting, rather than defining the entire surface - diminishing their popularity. Full Overlay or Euro-style Doors are the latest and again, the name defines the style. Doors and drawers completely cover the box surface leaving very small gaps...
