Need Help with New Kitchen Remodel

Hi. I am looking to remodel my kitchen. We currently have white walls with white cabinets and laminated countertops with hardwood flooring which is faded and scratched up. (See photo below)


I am looking to do new Hampton Bay Cabinets with Lifetouch Vinyl Flooring (Praline Oak White) with Taj Royale Quartz. (AI Image below). What do people think of this idea? Open to any ideas and any suggestions for a good backsplash that goes with TaJ Royale Quartz


Thanks

    We need a to scale floor plan of the whole space you are planning to use for the kitchen . Use graph paper to make it easier to do a scaled drawing. Before choosing anything you need that plan. On the plan show every window, doorways where those lead and every measurement clearly marked Post the plan here in a comment in jpeg format DO NOT start another post .That AI kitchen is all wrong on so many leverls . We also need to measurements of all the appliances in order to do a plan.

    Why don't you refinish you current wood floors vs. replacing them with vinyl flooring? Do your wood floors run through the rest of the home? I would never install faux wood flooring next to real wood floors. Your real wood floors add value to your home - the new vinyl ones will not.


    You should add photos of the flooring and quartz instead of only showing the AI generated image. The flooring in the AI image looks like it has a pink tone to it - and your countertop looks very gold. I don't think that the elements you've selected work well together.


    Also, if you are going to add a tile backsplash - DO NOT let your countertop installer add a 4" backsplash piece. You should either have a tile backsplash OR a 4" countertop backsplash - not both together.


    I would ask for additional thoughts re: your layout - not just the materials. If .you are going to the expense of replacing cabinets, you should take this opportunity to make layout changes. Also, I'd make sure that my lower cabinets (including those in the island) are mostly drawers vs. door cabinets. Drawer storage works much better than regular door cabinet storage.


    Add photos of the entire kitchen - not just that one area. Also, if you provide a scaled sketch of you kitchen space (including dimensions for all walls/windows/doors/doorways/etc.) - without any cabinets - people will be able to help suggest improvements to your layout.


    Also, I would take this opportunity to run your cabinets up to the ceiling. You will gain extra storage (for lesser used items) + it will make your kitchen look much more updated.

    the Taj Royale countertop is VERY BEIGE.

    Why not something whiter than the Taj Royale or with more color?

    Laminate countertops have come a long long way since the 80's...

    Paint the cabinet and walls the same color and add interesting hardware

    Regardless of what countertop you choose, leave off the 4" curb backsplash on the back and tile up the wall instead.

    With your arched window, run the new cabinets to the ceiling so it is all on the same plane.

    I love a light wood flooring. Are you replacing all the flooring adjacent to the kitchen floor?

    You can paint the base of the island an interesting color to compliment the chosen cabinet color.

    the Hampton Bay Sinclair in Light Oak is nice

    A frameless alternative to Hampton is IKEA Vedhamn. Built with European Oak in Hungary. Blum hardware.
