The kitchen is the heart of your home. Families cook, bake, eat, entertain, hang out and even work in this busy space. Since you’ll be spending so much of your time in your kitchen, it’s important that you design a room you truly enjoy.
Have fun and take advantage of all of the possibilities that come with building a custom kitchen. Give your kitchen a style of its own.
Farmhouse kitchen: open shelving, wide sinks, classic flooring and a big kitchen table.
Rustic kitchen: timber, stone, brick, vintage appliances and fireplaces.
Modern kitchen: frameless cabinets, sleek and simple hardware, strong horizontal lines and a lack of ornamentation, with the natural beauty of the materials shining through.
Traditional kitchen: arches, raised-panel cabinets, a mix of antique finishes and furniture-like turned legs — even a chandelier.
Contemporary kitchen: playful in form and finishes, including elements of other styles and creating its own reflection of the times.
Craftsman kitchen: rich woods, built-ins, handcrafted tiles and well-made simplicity.
Cottage kitchen: Beadboard, soft colors, vintage hardware, wood floors and colorful accents and curtains.
