Designing a kitchen that you will love for years to come can be a daunting task for homeowners.
Determining the overall look you want for your kitchen requires some homework and often consultation
with an expert. Our kitchen showroom has everything you need to build or renovate your kitchen or
bathroom into the space that you have always wanted.
The age of your home can often be easily distinguished by the style and finishes of your kitchen and it
can bring the most value to your home when renovated. Choosing colors and finishes that you will be
happy with requires careful care and consideration. Here are 4 steps to help you design a kitchen that
you will love for years to come.
1. Start collecting photos, materials and finishes that you like. Take the time to do your homework
to help you define your personal style.
2. Find expert advice. If you have an eye for colour and design, then create a moodboard or
finishes board to take along with you when you shop. But if you are not savvy in this area, find
an expert designer, decorator or kitchen specialist, to help guide you.
3. Consider what you really love. If you love dark brown cabinetry but your designer is telling you
that you should go with cream, then consider their advice carefully. You can always hire another
expert for a second opinion, which will be less costly than installing a kitchen with finishes that
you do not absolutely love, and changing it again in a few years.
4. Remember the other elements in your space when choosing your kitchen cabinets. Your floors,
adjacent spaces and natural light are just a few of the things that come into the kitchen
equation. If you are choosing cabinets to work with existing flooring that may not be there for as
long as your kitchen will be, then this needs to be considered. When in doubt, a designer or
kitchen expert from our Langley showroom can help you to map out a plan for your custom
kitchen cabinets
