Who said oak isn't in style? Well...they were wrong! Check out this beautiful kitchen with dark espresso stained cabinets. Oak doesn't always have to say "outdated". In fact, painted oak has made a slight rise in kitchen designing. Oak is both affordable and unique in its wood grain and color...

More often than not, we are seeing tall appliances being placed close to each other, since they are similar in size. This leaves the rest of the kitchen to be more open, and does not close off any spaces. More counter top space all around!

It is extremely important to leave landing space to the left and right of your cooking appliances. With all that counter top and beautiful range top, who wouldn't want to cook in this space?!
