7 must-have design details for kitchen

The modern kitchen has become the focal point of the home. Bringing family and friends together for more than just meals, today’s kitchen needs to be as good-looking as it is functional. Here are seven must-have kitchen design features to inspire your own beautifully hardworking kitchen.

1 Contrasting Cabinets (460 Maple Slate & Painted Ember Glaze)

Why settle for one cabinet finish when you can have two? Great for an open-concept kitchen, two tone kitchen cabinets (460 Maple Slate & Painted Ember Glaze) provide interesting depth and define the perimeter of the space.

2 Ample Storage Solutions

Plenty of storage means a place for everything. Closed cabinets hide less attractive items while open shelving offers easy access, as well as a place to display treasured heirlooms. Incorporating organization solutions, like a drawer organizer, conveniently provides a designated spot for each piece of silverware or dish. 

3 Waterfall Island

Dramatic, stylish and useful, a waterfall island is the hat trick of kitchen design. It’s the ideal go-to hang out spot plus it has plenty of counter space for you to create a culinary masterpiece.

4 Layered Lighting

Mix it up! Not only do pendants, recessed and natural lighting create an abundance of light for everyday tasks, but they also offer an illuminating design impact.

5 Custom Command Center

From paying bills to working from home, a built-in desk with form and function makes multitasking, without ever leaving the kitchen, a breeze.

6 Herringbone Backsplash

A practical solution for the inevitable spills, a tile backsplash is easy to clean. Add personality to your kitchen backsplash with a pop of color or a subway tile backsplash in a herringbone pattern. 

7 Pot-Filler

A small but mighty detail, a pot filler is a luxury not to be discounted! Bye-bye back pain and spills. With an articulated arm that enables the tap to swing out to the burners, you can easily fill a large stockpot at its final destination on the burner.
