Tip: A broken L-shape is a great solution if you want to use a variety of countertop materials.

2. Flush inset or framed cabinetry. The type of cabinet construction can have a significant impact on the way a kitchen looks. Full overlay or frameless cabinets are associated with a more contemporary way of building a cabinet — the door overlays the frame of the cabinet, and you don't see any exposed hinges. Flush inset or framed cabinets are associated with an Old World way or furniture-style way of building cabinets. With this sort of construction, you'll see the frame around the doors, and the doors and drawers are set flush with that frame. You'll also see exposed piano hinges in silver, oil-rubbed bronze or even antique brass. 3. Glazed and antique cabinet finishes. Traditional kitchens often feature cabinet finishes that are glazed or made to look aged and distressed. Whether you're using antique white or a color like the island shown, a bit of glazing can add instant age and patina. Be careful, though. Some antique finishes look fake, so make sure your cabinetmaker has samples for you to approve before ordering.

The layering and mixing of finishes in this kitchen give it an old-world charm. Note the glazed blue-gray island and its relationship to the pendant above. The choices for a mahogany-tone wood countertop, dark trim around the windows and a custom hood surround in particular were all made during the process of designing this kitchen and impact the overall finished look and style. Tip: Order current samples of the materials you're considering. Get a door sample with your style and finish for final approval. Make sure you go to the stone supplier and view and tag the actual slab of marble for your countertops, and make sure to order a current control sample of tile for your backsplash. All these extra steps will cut down on costly mistakes.

Flush inser or framed cabinetry - the type of cabinet construction can have a significant impact on the way a kitchen looks. Full overlay or frameless cabinets are associated with a more contemporary way of building a cabinet - the door overlays the frame of the cabinet and you don't see any exposed hinge way or furniture-style way of building cabinets. With this style you will see the frame around the doors, and the doors and drawer are set flush with that frame. You will also see exposed piano hinges in silver, oil-rubbed bronze or even antique brass.
