Modern Shaker Cabinets:

• A thinner style on cabinet doors adds depth and character without the heaviness of the traditional shaker door. It’s a subtle way to dress up your kitchen while allowing focus on other kitchen materials like countertops and hardware.

Creative Cabinetry:

• Bold colors and unconventional styles are becoming more frequent with clients, creating more interest that makes a statement. Bold and bright cabinetry finishes with a quirky tile accent or a balance of fluted cabinetry doors alongside flat panel drawer fronts help provide personality and flair.

Away With Upper Cabinetry:

• Minimizing the number of upper cabinets or not installing any at all is a top trend that showcases a kitchen full of light and allows for other statement pieces to shine through your design. If the additional storage uppers provide is non-negotiable, try isolating your upper cabinetry to one wall or substitute floating shelves for a more streamlined look and feel.

Natural Stone Slabs:

• Natural stone slabs don’t just stop at the tops. We’re seeing these unique materials continuing up the walls as a backsplash and even cascading down to the floor for a beautiful waterfall edge. Many clients are willing to invest more in natural stone materials because every piece tells a different story. By utilizing a waterfall edge and “high splash” with the same countertop material, you get a cohesive look while showcasing your one-of-a-kind stone selection.
