The slide-in range and continuous backsplash make the space feel longer. The microwave above the range allows for more space on the countertop. The laminate top looks just like granite at a fraction of the cost.

This older home on the Southside of Birmingham has an open airy look and feel. Removing the wall between then eat in area and working kitchen allows for a much larger kitchen. A desk area was added as the client works from home. Integrated appliances keep the cabinets front and center. The Chef's range is beautiful and sets in a very functional work space with plenty of room left and right for prep. The wide galley allows for the small peninsula and space for three to four seats at the bar.

If your family is like most American families, the kitchen is the heart of your home. It is where you gather for meals, to do homework, meet with friends, and, of course, sneak a midnight snack! Knowing that the kitchen is the center of your home, is the overall style what you want when entertaining? If the answer is no, but you don’t have the funds to do a complete renovation, you may be considering painting the kitchen cabinets. Here are three of the top benefits of making this choice. A Face-Lift – Kitchen cabinets are most likely one of the first things people notice when they enter a kitchen, as they take up a majority of the wall space. So if they are drab, dated, worn, or darker than you prefer, you may want to consider brightening up your kitchen with a professional painting of not only the wall surfaces but also the kitchen cabinets. If your cabinets are in fairly good condition, there really is no need to replace, but rather have the experts bring back the shine and new look to your kitchen through paint. Economical – Having a team of professionals remove, clean, sand, and paint your cabinet doors and the surrounding woodwork can be much more cost effective than a complete replacement of the cabinets. The average cost of revitalizing cabinets by painting is a fraction of the cost of both the labor and materials needed to replace the existing cabinets. Time and Convenience – Not only is the cost a factor when deciding whether to replace or rejuvenate your cabinets, but time and convenience should be considered as well. For most contractors, gutting and replacing cabinets will take approximately 3-6 weeks and will mean losing your kitchen during that time. In a fraction of the time, usually less than a week, your kitchen can look like new with a paint color that you have chosen.

Bedroom - small transitional dark wood floor and brown floor bedroom idea in San Francisco with white walls

The existing kitchen had a light makeover to brighten it up. We painted the cabinets a soft storm blue, accenting with a hand cast ceramic tile backsplash and polished dynamic black granite counters. The island was painted to match the cabinets as well, and accented with a fog grey quartz countertop. photography by www.tylermallory.com

I live for moments of grace, such as classical music, beautiful china, fine art, and textiles. This home is a testament of this philosophy, with an eclectic mix of the fine and the understated. Next to a work of irreplaceable fine art is hung a tapestry from Turkey, purchased in a market for pennies. On display, collections of fine Herend china and exquisite Limoges boxes sit alongside some of HomeGoods’ best ceramic offerings. In this home, I’m inspired by textiles and fabrics, different dimensions, mixes of color, history, and artistic focal points; but most of all I am inspired by the intangible feeling of a piece.
