Bathroom Design is Going Back to Basics

Clean and simple are the major trends in bathroom design, but just because it is simple doesn’t mean it has to be boring. You can still add a little excitement to your bathroom, as long as you keep the overall look clean. Let’s look at the design trends that are making their way back into the bathroom.

Bathroom design trend — White and gray colors are dominating the clean and simple bathroom trend.

Clean and minimalistic design

Just like in the kitchen, light, neutral tones are still the most popular bathroom colors. You want your bathroom to feel clean, and working with white tones is a great way to do that. Adding a few softer hues to the white, like neutrals or grays, can break up the white so it doesn’t feel too stark. Just remember to keep the color scheme simple, so the bathroom isn’t too busy. If you’re looking to add a splash of color, think about getting some brightly colored towels and funky bath mats.

Matte hardware and fixtures

You can use your choice of hardware and fixtures to add some excitement to your bathroom. Instead of shiny metals for the hardware, look at matte brass to add a warmer and more rustic element to your bathroom. You don’t want the bathroom to feel cold, and using warmer hues can make your bathroom feel warmer and more inviting.

Open shelving

Simple bathroom design trends — Remember to add great lighting to your bathroom.

Gone are the bottom cabinets and medicine cabinets. They’re too clunky and take up too much space. Typically, the bathroom has limited space, so to open it up, think about open shelving instead of cabinets. By keeping your storage spaces open, you make your bathroom feel roomier. Of course, you don’t just want a floating sink, and having a cabinet fill the space under the sink is another great use of space. Modern bathroom cabinets will have clean, simple lines that will perfectly blend with the clean and minimalistic design style of your bathroom.

Great lighting

Think about having different types of lighting for all the different tasks that you perform in your bathroom. You can have simple overhead lighting for when you are just making a pit stop, but you also want to have some specialty lighting for when you need to apply your makeup, style your hair, or pluck your eyebrows.

4 Useful Remodeling Hints For Your New Kitchen

At The Kitchen Showcase, we encourage you to follow these useful hints, in order to make your new kitchen remodeling process easier and to avoid any setbacks in the process.

Hint #1

Look for an adequate and safe place in your home outside of the remodeling area, where you can place a temporary kitchen.

Hint #2

Look for a safe place to put your new kitchen cabinets and appliances once they have arrived. Make sure the place is enclosed, so the materials will be protected at all times.

Hint #3

When you pack your kitchen stuff make sure to label all the boxes, so as to save time when your new kitchen is ready and you need to unpack everything. Items that are fragile should be marked accordingly and stored in an area away from the construction.

Three Simple Steps to Keeping Granite Countertops Sparkly and New

When you get a brand new kitchen, it’s almost too beautiful to use. You don’t want to mess anything up. However, at some point, you’re going to have to start using your kitchen, and that includes getting the countertops dirty. Although there’s something cozy about a kitchen that has been through its share of dinner parties and bake sales, you can still take measures to keep your kitchen, especially the granite countertops, looking shiny and new.

Cleaning granite countertops — Wipe up spills and dry your granite countertops after use to keep them looking new.

Granite countertops are the number one choice

From the ancient pyramids to your new kitchen countertops, granite has stood the test of time. From the unique beauty of the natural stone to their durability, granite countertops continue to lead the pack. One of the biggest draws is that granite countertops are virtually maintenance-free – virtually.

Maintaining granite countertops

Granite countertops are made up of many different crystals that give it that distinct look that varies from stone to stone. The blend of crystals that make up your countertops is what gives each slab unique characteristics. Because of the blend of crystals, the first thing you need to make sure is that your granite countertops are properly sealed. Whereas most countertops come pre-sealed when they are installed, you will have to reapply sealant from time to time. If you notice that moisture is being absorbed into your countertops rather than beading up and remaining on the surface, it may be time to reapply another coat of sealant.

Removing stains from granite countertops

Baking soda is one of the most useful items that we all have in our kitchen. Plus, it’s a natural, non-toxic product that you can use to rid your countertops of unwanted stains and watermarks. Make a paste of baking soda and water and spread it over the stains. Leave the paste to absorb the stain. Sometimes, this method can take a few days. If you’re impatient, you can add a bit of hydrogen peroxide to speed things up.

Regular maintenance of granite countertops

Of course, daily maintenance is your best weapon against premature wear and tear. After each use, be sure to wipe down your granite countertops using water and a mild soap. Try to avoid acidic liquids, as these could damage the sealant. When you’re done, dry your counters completely and you’ll be rewarded with years and years of gorgeous granite countertops that keep looking as good as new.

Complete Custom Kitchen Remodel Project

We recently did a kitchen remodeling project with Warren Remodeling. Together, we created a dream kitchen for our customer, using the best brands and quality materials. Check out this warm and cozy rustic style kitchen project and get inspired to work with The Kitchen Showcase on your next custom kitchen remodel.

Custom kitchen cabinets

The biggest expense in a kitchen remodel are the custom kitchen cabinets. Since they take up the most space and make up a large portion of the overall visual, choosing the right brand, style, and color is important. Of course, style is just one design element. The other important design element is to make your kitchen functional. For a dream kitchen, customize your cabinets to meet every requirement for function as well as being a reflection of your personal style.

Briarwood cabinets for a rustic kitchen

The kitchen is the nexus of the home. It is the one room in the house that will see the most foot traffic, and serve many functions. Your kitchen should be fit for cooking, entertaining, lounging, and working. When we design a kitchen, we make sure to hit on all fronts, making your dream kitchen more than a kitchen, but a reflection of the entire home. This time, the customer wanted to keep her Colorado kitchen country, so we chose to use Briarwood Cabinets in Rustic Beech. The dark cabinets are warm and sleek – perfect for a rustic country style kitchen.

To modernize the rustic kitchen design, we went with a kitchen island glazed in black. A pop of color or a bold black island will make the kitchen feel more vibrant. If you make the design too uniform and consistent throughout, nothing will really stand out. You have to create a few wow factors. Another great contrast to make the kitchen more exciting is the white brick backsplash. The white color gives the kitchen light against the darker wood cabinets, and the brick keeps the design true to its rustic origins.

Remodeling a Contemporary Country Kitchen

Nothing is more classic than a white kitchen. By adding a few soft, neutral colors to break up the clean white cabinets, you soften the palette and make the kitchen warmer. White colors make a kitchen feel clean, thereby inviting guests to want to cook and eat, whereas warmer tones prevent the kitchen from feeling too clinical and cold. Our latest kitchen remodel project takes classic design elements and mixes them with a few modern touches.

Complete kitchen remodel

When we take on a remodeling project, we work with each client from the concept to the final installation of all products. The first step is to assess the space, and then we talk to the client to get an idea of their dream kitchen. Then the fun begins, choosing the perfect style of the cabinets, the countertops, the sink, the hardware, the lighting, and of course, all the fun aesthetic elements that will make this kitchen feel like home. For this recent kitchen remodel project, we chose to use a creative tile backsplash to add a little country charm to a contemporary kitchen.

Custom cabinets

The cabinets are going to be the biggest portion of designing a kitchen. They are the most visible, will take up the most space, and serve the biggest functional purpose. You want the cabinets to match your style, as well as be functional in storing all of your kitchenwares. Custom designing your cabinets will give you the best results, utilizing all the space and creating the perfect storage unit or display cases to fit your kitchen.

Raised panel cabinet doors

For this charming kitchen remodel, we used a raised panel cabinet door style. Instead of completely white cabinets, the cabinets feature a fine dark trim to give the cabinets a more rustic design aesthetic. Adding to the rustic theme, the cabinets are complemented with antique bronze hardware and knobs, which is both rustic and modern.

Quartz countertops

We’re big fans of quartz countertops. They’re durable, stain- and heat-resistant, and offer many more style and color choices than granite or marble. The only difference is that quartz is engineered, whereas granite and marble are made from solid stone. However, quartz can still give your kitchen an organic feel, adding to the theme of a contemporary country kitchen.

Tile backsplashes

We always focus on the cabinets and countertops when we’re designing a kitchen. However, when it comes to tying the whole kitchen design together, you have to think about the big picture, from floor to ceiling. Instead of white walls behind the cabinets and above the counters, we went with a more artistic and chic design choice and added a tiled backsplash. A tiled backsplash adds another textural element, making the design more exciting. By incorporating the colors and the tones from the quartz and the cabinets, we make the kitchen design feel cohesive and complete.

Recessed ceiling lights and a pop of color

Mixing and matching design styles can make for a more personalized kitchen design, so don’t be afraid to add modern touches to a rustic kitchen. For this remodel, we used recessed ceiling lights, instead of hanging fixtures. We painted one wall a vibrant deep blue to add a pop of color to an otherwise white and neutral kitchen.
