Cabinet placement around decorative plaster hood
Comments (0)I am remodeling our kitchen and need some input on cabinet placement around the hood. The hood is 48 inches wide and we surround it in plaster and spanish tile. On one side of the hood there is a doorway leading into a laundry room. If I place an upper cabinet on that side (between the doorway and the hood) it will be a maximum of 10 in width On the other side I have approx 3 feet of upper cabinet space. I do not want to move the stove over any more than is absoloutly necessary.( I am attempting to keep the Stove and the island alligned) Do I have to place cabinets on both sides of the hood in order to balance the hood....See MoreWindow placement for flanking stove hood
Comments (47)smm - it's like you have ESP! The last 24 hours have been all about cabinets (even more than usual). At the risk of getting eggs thrown at me, I'm considering changing course on cabinets. I've been researching Cliq Studios cabinet company, and started talking to them today. I wore my contractor down, told him it's basically the same thing as his preferred cabinet supplier, but I like Cliq's options more. Although I'm sure Sophie et al. would say if it's Chinese they're all the same, I feel a lot more comfortable ordering from them (they have 50,000 facebook reviews, mostly glowing, 5-star rating with Better business bureau), and I think this is a step above other ready-to-assemble cabinets I've looked into. They're having a 40% off sale right now (I know that sounds so cheesy..."act now to get 40% off"). I'm impressed that Blum motion glides and soft close hardware come standard, they use I beams to strengthen the boxes, they're carb 2 compliant, it's comes pre-assembled with free shipping and...did I mention they're having a 40% off sale right now? We've got a pretty tight budget and can only change cabinet suppliers if the cost is comparable, which, based on the rough estimate I got last night on their website, I think it'll be. So, long explanation to say that I'm leaning toward an off-white color called "Painted Linen"....See MoreTile placement around bay window
Comments (15)I like trimming out the window with similar trim used in the rest of the house and then tiling up to the trim....that way no raw edges of tiling will show. But I do not like the edges of tiles to show but some people do...either way works just select what YOU like the best unless you like your designers ideas more than your ideas as you will be living with this a long time and you do not want to be annoyed every time you look at the window. That said I would personally prefer Damiarain's pictured look....See MoreThoughts about placement of Stove/hood in relation to island
Comments (14)The location of the range looks fine as it's drawn, and leaves a nice prep space between it and the sink. If you're considering putting the sink on the island, I'd suggest adding a prep sink there. Instead of prepping in the corner, you can prep facing the room. You haven't drawn upper cabinets, so having symmetry in those (if you plan to have uppers) would be the only reason to readjust the range location, IMO. Also, if you store dishes in drawers on the island, across from the DW, helpers can unload the DW or gather dishes to set the table, without entering either prep zone. The extra seat can go on the short side, where it makes conversation during meals easier....See MoreJen Hans
