Kitchen cabinets are the most expensive element in your kitchen and therefore require careful consideration. In spite of this, this doesn’t mean you can’t have fun with your design choice. Mission Viejo homeowners are enjoying the many trends and choices available for their kitchen space and are choosing to invest in the right design to upgrade their space. The details are what matter the most in this category and the right elements added to your cabinetry can make all the difference.
One trend that is adding a taste of sophistication to many kitchens is the plan to add crown molding to cabinets. Classic crown molding gives a more formal appearance and even adds shapely contrast making the kitchen appear larger. This is an outstanding option to choose when you want to upgrade the style of your cabinets while sticking to more traditional colors.
To create a clean minimalistic look that isn’t too cold, try squared-off, flat front cabinets with a glass front. The look is an Asian motivated design and works well with any finishing color. This look also blends well with kitchens that have a number of stainless steel appliances in it.
Many Mission Viejo homes are adopting a classic Tuscan style that is completely complemented by deep red cabinetry. Look into darker wood finishes, and mantelpiece style architecture to add an old Venetian style to space.
One rising trend is using upcycled wooden materials in cabinetry. Even if you can’t find rustic looking wood at an affordable price, using a varnish to create a worn down look is a smart option for kitchen cabinets.
If you are choosing glass front cabinets, remember not all glass is the same. More homeowners are choosing to include sandblasted glass into their cabinet designs to create a look that’s both modern and masculine. The elements over the glass are almost as important as the glass itself. Architectural molding over the glass can add a unique edge on the most classically designed homes without overdoing it.
The great thing about all of these options is the ability to mix and match them. Try using both open and closed cabinets, or combining the use of both glass and wooden front cabinets. The variety of design choices throughout the kitchen will prevent it from looking too sterile and can help add fluidity to the room.
