If your home had a heart, it would be the kitchen. So much more than a room for cooking, the kitchen is often the place where meals are shared, messes made, art projects attempted, and homework finished.
Because of this room’s importance, you should put a lot of thought into your kitchen remodeling project before changing a thing.

Lots of Counter Space
First things first: Pack your kitchen renovation full of the counter space you need for food prep. A large center island with a granite top is ideal, since it’s accessible from all sides, durable, and good for storage, too. Plus, the right variety of wood matched with an attractive choice of stone launches your kitchen to style heaven.

Storage Galore
A kitchen remodeling project that doesn’t create more storage is like springtime without flowers. Everyone knows a functional kitchen needs oodles of space for storing food, pots, pans, cleaning products, spices, tupperware, and everything else! Make use of your kitchen renovation to maximize storage by adding shelving, cabinets, and maybe even a freestanding pantry.

Functional Seating
If you’re like many homeowners, you probably eat more meals in your kitchen than you do in your actual dining room. There’s nothing wrong with that!
If you eat breakfast and lunch in your kitchen, create seating that works with these casual meals: maybe a few tall chairs or stools around your center island, or a banquette with a small dining table. Do what makes the most sense for the way you and your family share meals.

Durable Flooring
If any room is going to experience spilled juice or muddy cleats, it’s going to be the kitchen.
As a result, your kitchen remodeling project should include flooring that can hold up to abuse — and look great for years to come. Rugged hardwood floors are always a good choice, since they’re easily cleaned and very attractive, but a durable laminate floor can be an excellent selection for high-traffic areas.
Another great look at what can be done in your current home. Of course, we all live in different size homes, but we can make the space we have more functional and of course, beautiful! I can’t wait until next week to see more great ideas to enhance the beauty of our home.
