(I wish I could remember exactly how I stumbled upon it!) I never ever anticipated or even desired to build a house. However, the timing of my discovery was perfect because it was during our house build. Your kitchen remodel is going to be a serious investment of time and money, and we want you to not only have the kitchen of your dreams now, but enjoy it for decades to come.I’m so very thankful you started this blog 10 yrs ago, Michele, 🙌🏼even though I only just discovered it more recently. Whether selling your home is now on your horizon or you are simply wanting to love and utilize the kitchen you are in, these seven timeless design decisions are ones worth considering.

A separate station for your stove or your sink.Deep cabinets or drawers for small kitchen appliances, dishes or linens.Extra counter space for cooking and meal prep.An integration of workspace and dining space.When home shoppers in San Antonio look at kitchens, having a functional kitchen island can be a great bonus. Introduced in the 70’s, the kitchen island is one of the most sought-after elements of modern kitchen design. Sit down with a cabinet designer, see what new storage options are available and decide what works best for your space.
Cabinet manufacturers have you covered with a multitude of storage options - shelves and drawers have compartments that unfold, turn, extend, and slide for organized storage and easy access. All of this means less wall space and more stuff. San Antonio homeowners also are more apt to shop at warehouse stores both to stock up on staples and try out the latest in small kitchen appliances, cookware and accessories. Part of this is because kitchens are no longer a strictly utilitarian space and have become the hub of family life. Many families today a lot of their kitchen stuff outside the kitchen - in laundry rooms, basements, even outdoor sheds. The white on white color scheme ties them together and brings unity to the space. See in the photo above how the classic look of subway tile still allows for a beautiful mosaic tile behind the stove. This truly iconic look is part of the American design vernacular, and is destined never to go out of style.Ĭeramic tile in the kitchen excels as a backsplash, where it guards against moisture, is easy to clean, lasts forever, and looks classy. To make it even more enduring, keep it all one color and camouflage dirt with gray or other neutral-colored grout. Classic subway tiles are white, 3-inch-by-6-inch rectangles. Subway tile goes back to the early 1900s, when it was used to line New York’s first subway tunnels. If you don’t have the budget for marble, consider compromising with a relatively inexpensive laminate countertop now and then upgrading down the road.
