You walk down the aisles of your local home improvement store, knowing exactly where to go to find what you need. As you turn the corner, you suddenly realize you might not quite be prepared to make such a big decision. When it comes to choosing the right cabinetry for your kitchen remodel, it’s easy to get lost in the endless designs, colors, and material options. You want to make sure what you select is durable, stylish, and within your home improvement budget. We’ve put together some helpful information so you can make the BEST cabinetry decision for your kitchen remodel.
To customize or prefabricate?
Having custom-made kitchen cabinets is a fantastic option for your kitchen remodel. You’ll meet with a professional who will draw up a plan and determine the best storage system for your space using corners and other areas to better serve your needs. However, it’s not as affordable as a prefabricated option. You can still find something you love with a prefabricated cabinet, and they are usually easy to work with — especially if you’re DIY-ing your new kitchen.
The Right Look
The cabinets are often the first thing you notice when you walk into someone’s kitchen. They almost always take up the bulk of wall space, and the color could be anything from stark white to rich cherry, or even glass-fronted doors. Choosing the right cabinetry for your kitchen remodel relies heavily on your personal taste. However, you’ll want to keep in mind the plans you have for the rest of the kitchen so that your design flows seamlessly. It may be helpful to research current popular kitchen trends in case you plan on reselling in the future.
Cool Cabinet Colors
Achieving a beautiful kitchen often comes down to color palettes. As you move forward with your home improvement, take note of the other colors in your kitchen’s space. If your walls, floors, and counters are similar colors and lighter shades, then having a darker cabinet helps to break it up. On the contrary, if your floors are dark and your walls are of medium brightness, white cabinets can be just the pop you need for a stunning color story.
The Big Finish
Choosing a finish on your cabinets is almost as important as the color. Selecting a glossy finish is perfect if you’re wanting your cabinets to be the main focus of your room. Or, you may decide on a matte finish, which allows them to not seem so prevalent and allows you to highlight other areas of your dream kitchen like appliances or countertops.
