'11 Kitchen Trends Part 1

Mike Dorrance - Thursday, December 01, 2011
  This past year we have seen an uptick in what we affectionately call “Grandma’s Kitchen.” What is a “Grandma’s Kitchen”? That doesn’t mean avocado and cream is back, the classic white inset cabinet. The women that choose this kitchen style go all out in the classic look with modern conveniences. Beautiful chrome pulls, soft close undermount drawer glides, finial hinges, glass doors and white subway tile backsplash are all details that do not go overlooked. There is also a newer granite called White Fantasy that emulates the classic look of grey marble but has the durability and family friendly features of granite. Clients have also been opting for 3 1/4” oak floors with darker stains. Now you throw in new built-in appliances and you have a streamlined modern kitchen that has all of the timeless character of Grandma’s. I think I smell some cookies!
