How to Choose the Perfect Cabinet Style for Your Kitchen
Shakers, flat-panel, inserts — oh my! Just like any phase of the renovation process, choosing the perfect cabinets for your kitchen can be an overwhelming task. With endless options at your fingertips, it’s important to boil your decision down to the essentials. Which cabinets will accentuate your style? How will you make the most use of your space? Not to fear: Redefined Cabinetry is here to help!
Aesthetics
No matter your kitchen’s aesthetics, your cabinets should blend in seamlessly with the room’s overall theme! If your kitchen has a modern, sleek vibe, consider flat-panel or slab cabinets with clean lines. For a more traditional look, raised panel or shaker-style cabinets might be the way to go. The key is to match the cabinets with the existing elements of your kitchen, including countertops, flooring, and appliances.
Materials
The material and finish of your cabinets can dramatically influence the feel of your kitchen. Here at Redefined Living, we highly recommend multi-layer plywood for your cabinets. Wood cabinets offer a warm, timeless appeal, while metal or laminate options might suit a more contemporary kitchen. Also, consider the color and finish — whether you want a natural wood grain, a painted look, or a high-gloss finish. Your choice will significantly impact the kitchen’s atmosphere.
Functionality
While aesthetics are important, functionality should not be overlooked. Consider how you use your kitchen daily. Do you need more storage? Open shelving might be a good option. If you want a mix of storage and display, glass-front cabinets could provide the best of both worlds. Think about your habits and needs to choose a functional cabinet style that will work for you.
