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.

Isn’t a sink just a sink?’ But yes, I am serious — and my clients are often baffled when trying to choose from the available options.

If you’re thinking of remodeling your kitchen in Arizona, it is important to stay within your budget and have an appropriate plan before beginning. The most expensive part with any kitchen remodel will be the kitchen cabinets. Keep in mind the different cabinet types, as well as the option of refacing instead of replacing. Keeping Existing Cabinets When your cabinets are still in great condition, it may be best to keep them and just restain or repaint them. This will save you the most amount of money, and is generally used when the remodeled kitchen is putting more emphasis on new countertops or flooring. The cabinets are then restained or painted, or even refaced to match the new additions. Keep in mind that when refacing kitchen cabinet, 60-70% of the cost of the cabinet is in the doors. If you are going to be refacing too much, it may be best to look at the next option, new custom, semi-custom, or stock cabinetry. Custom, Semi-Custom, and Stock Cabinetry Custom cabinets are made exactly how you want them. Wood types, finishes, and cabinet accessories will all be custom chose how you like. In turn, this will be the most expensive option of the three. Semi-Custom cabinets can be adjusted to your kitchen’s specific size requirements, but may require spacers to fit. The wood types and finishes will not be as broad as custom cabinetry, the price will be lower. Stock cabinetry, also known as modular cabinetry, is the least expensive of the three. Because stock cabinets in Phoenix are mass-produced, they may not fit in your kitchen exactly how you...

We wanted to share some recent articles with you. “Color has a huge effect on the atmosphere of a space, and this beautiful kitchen in a Georgian house in London proves that sometimes it pays to be bold. The kitchen is outfitted with classic Shaker cabinets but wears a striking shade of flinty gray on the walls, cabinets and shelves, punctuated by a pale marble counter top. ‘It’s a very warm, atmospheric space,’ says Emily Rumble, its designer. ‘It’s a small room, but the color really makes it feel cozy and inviting.'” Click here to read the full article on Houzz....
