Which is the better floor for modern kitchen/living area?
Comments (4)I think for a contemporary more modern the really dark or a light floor both work. However, the light floor you picked is similar to ours and I don't think it goes too well with modern. Have you looked at bamboo? I think that would work really well as well as be a green choice. Light maple would be another one to look at. I think for modern you want something with more of a sleek look so that means less graining. I'll second the dark vs. light. Dark looks wonderful, but shows dust and scratches really well....See MoreWhich kitchen cabinet maker is better?
Comments (2)When I see "custom made kitchen", I think of cabinets mile mine - locally built by a cabinetmaker from scratch, in their own shop. Though I recognize that some cabinet brands can be custom sized. If you want custom, perhaps check out local cabinet makers in your area. Ours was fantastic, an not outrageously expensive....See MorePlease help! Which kitchen design is better?
Comments (16)Even though the cabinets are in production, you may still be able to make some changes if they haven't made those doors yet. All those 12" doors would drive me crazy. The KD probably felt that 21" was a little on the big side, which it is, but doable and so much better than all those 12". Not to mention that 2 cabinets probably would have been less expensive that 4. Is there a reason they couldn't put the range in the middle as you show? Maybe a stud in the way of the range hood? Waiting until it's installed to make changes is a bad option, IMO....See Morewhich kitchen lighting design is better
Comments (5)Exactly what kjs said ^^. Put the lights near your kitchen counters (lower right of the plans) with lights centered over countertop edges, and almost everything else as shown in the second drawing. The only thing I might omit in that case would be the "path" lights between the island and the dining area, at least on the side toward the range....See Morenarnia75
