This kitchen designer was recommended to us. Her instructions are to look through her portfolio of jobs and pick kitchens we like:
Now that's a fun assignment! It's so weird that we're doing two kitchens with different goals (or doing two apartments with different goals I should say). With the rental, we are focused on mass appeal and budget. For our kitchen, we're basically trying to get the sweetest kitchen possible with the budget we have afer everything else has been accounted for. Our appliances are the last item we're going to buy. ie - the price of our stove depends on where we are with our budget in three months. {man.. I really want that nice stove!}.
Feel free to chime in on your favorite cabinets!
I couldn't scroll through the portfolio on the site. For the rental, I like warm, brown cabinets and lighter countertops. For yours, I like the idea of the white w/wood accents. We're doing that in our office/landing area upstairs, so I'll send pics soon.
ReplyDeleteOf note... Our countertops from IKEA came from the same company as our kitchen supply/cabinet place and were a few hundred $$$ less expensive. It's the exact same product! We got our butcher-block countertop for upstairs from them too.
