From bell bottoms and platform shoes, to acid washed jeans and big hair, we’ve all seen our fair share of trends come and go over the years. But like a finely tailored suit, the little black dress, and a killer pair of pumps, some things manage to withstand the test of time. The same goes for home decorating and Kitchen Design Ideas.
So if you’re considering giving your dated kitchen a little facelift, here are 5 remodeling decisions that will look as good 20 years from now as they will today.
-
White Cabinetry
White is still one of the most popular colors for kitchen cabinets. It reflects light, makes even the tiniest of kitchens seem large, and, because it’s a standard finish option for any manufacturer, it can also be a bit easier on the budget.
-
Hardwood Flooring
Though they may have been covered up by everything from shag carpet to linoleum over the years, hardwood floors are still at the top of most homeowners’ wish lists. Incorporating hardwood floors in your remodel will allow your kitchen to flow seamlessly from one room to the next. They can also take quite a beating and still look good as new with the proper amount of upkeep.
-
Carrara Marble Countertops
Carrara marble has been used in homes for thousands of years and remains a popular choice today. From traditional to contemporary, it compliments any design style. It’s also readily available and less expensive than other high-end choices, such as quartz, and requires only an annual sealing to keep it looking fresh and new.
- Farmhouse SinkA nod to kitchens of the past, a farmhouse sink is a classic addition to any kitchen. And because it sits closer to your body than a standard top-mount or under-mount sink, it’s more ergonomic.
- Subway Tile BacksplashDating back to the 1900s, subway tile is now an iconic choice for kitchens. It’s available in countless color options and compliments just about any design style.
