The Necessary Island
If your kitchen is all about family, invest in an island. This long island features a stunning white quartz countertop, white and chrome bar chairs, and a dark wood base to match the mahogany floor.

Mix It Up
Two-toned kitchens are more interesting than one-toned. A marble island, different cabinet finishes and Art Deco tile make this Candice’s favorite Divine Design kitchen makeover.

The most glamorous of her kitchen renovation was this art deco styled kitchen. She used gorgeous marble for the countertops. The showstopper had to be the floors which I totally fell in love with – mosaic tiles in black and white in a simple repeating pattern.

Gray, white and black are really starting to grow on me for a kitchen. One could argue that gray is cold and uninviting but the right gray with white and black can really make a crisp and bold statement. Check out the back splash as well as the striped floor!

White cabinets in tradtional style.

Design your dream kitchen for durability. Three kinds of porcelain tile and carefully planned cabinet storage make this kitchen a stylish workhorse.

Dark wood kitchen open design, living place.

Integrate family rooms into the kitchen through color. Dark, espresso-toned cabinets coordinate well with this space’s black sofa and warm khaki walls.

Kitchen cabinets, breakfast bar and dining room.
Knock out a wall to add space to your kitchen. This kitchen seamlessly integrates with the dining area, using a buffet island to separate the two.

Candice Olson, a leading designer in the United States and Canada, began her career in commercial and residential design after graduating from the School of Interior Design at Ryerson University in Toronto. Candice received accolades and media attention for her distinctive and exceptional work before moving her design career to television. In fact, earlier in her career, the New York Times identified her as “one to watch.”

Candace Olson is a genius when it comes to total renovations and overhauls. When it comes to kitchens, she is definitely the queen. If I were to choose any designer to build my dream kitchen, it would Candace Olson hands down.
Her signature trademark for many of her kitchen countertops is quartz which is beautiful and more durable than granite. Granite will stain and so having really light colors for granite counter tops actually takes a lot of work to upkeep.

The kitchen was going to be yellow with green accents. The bathroom was to be painted green.

The way it’s been balanced with the white and the red makes it not too overwhelming, and the rug adds some nice color to the floor.

The yellow is very light and muted on this one, and the green they chose makes it feel like spring.

Yes, yellow tends to remind us of sunlight and friendship. In various shades, yellow can be either trendy or timeless. Brighter tones will tend to be more trendy and energetic, while softer pale yellows are more timeless for a kitchen setting. You’ll find several pictures of kitchens featuring yellow cabinets, as either the central color or as a contrasting accent in two-tone kitchens. Yellow cabinets require a moderate level of care and attention. Since dark stains and smudges stand out visually on a light surface, yellow kitchen cabinets may require more frequent gentle cleaning and dusting than wood cabinets. Knowing what to expect in advance can pay off with a lifetime of enjoyment in your modern yellow kitchen.

Perfect kitchen designs from thekitchn:

This tour comes from reader Daniel, who “inadvertently” started his own kitchen cure a few months ago. He wanted to just take care of one small problem: a cracked floor. Well, this repair ballooned into a much larger project, but the end result is a marked improvement!

Dale and Adam have lived in an early 80′s conversion for over six years and during that time they tolerated their hyper 80′s kitchen. Finally, they couldn’t take it anymore.

Instead of ripping out perfectly great infrastructure, Dale tried to keep as much of the original interior shelving as possible, replacing only the doors of the cabinets and their respective hardware. Major changes included the new viking stove, gorgeous carrera marble countertops, and a tiled carrera backsplash. [small kitchen]

The high-end kitchen, replete with enough stemware for an extensive cocktail party, is tempered by the drying rack. Dale incorporated a rack to accommodate multiple baby bottles as well as wine glasses as he knew both forms of drinking vessels were inevitable.

Brooklyn Kitchen is one of our all time favorite stores. From affordable vintage cast iron, to copper made in Brooklyn, not only do they have everything you’d need to stock your kitchen, but it’s that quirky mix of new and vintage items that keeps us coming back. We knew that co-owners Harry Rosenblum and Taylor Erkkinen had to have a pretty cool kitchen of their own, and we were right. This is a kitchen with some personality!

When we bought the house, the kitchen had an ugly but perfectly functional kitchen, with your standard issue Home Depot maple faced cabinets and your dark green laminate counter. we planned on replacing the counter, and relocating the upper cabinets, as they were positioned a bizarre 12″ up from the counter. When we removed the uppers, the screws just spunem-dashthere was no adequate support. ( (Read more at thekitchn )

Derek lives in a spacious brownstone with his wife and two children. The kitchen screams out ‘activity center’ and beckons one forth! A gathering place, a showcase, a place to experiment, a place to cook, and a place to eat, it is the hub of the home.

Derek, a green building developer, is not one to shy away from challenging tasks. With the help of an architect, he created a modern and industrial supply laden kitchen in a century old brownstone. The result is a bright, rugged, inviting place to create. His girls like to invent things and do homework sitting at the counter. The space behind the bar is great for displaying important notices and storing alcohol, and the space in front of the breakfast bar is an instructional chef’s dream arrangement.

By sourcing from lab supply companies instead of kitchen cabinet companies, longevity and resilience are the themes of this kitchen. Which is great from a sustainability perspective, and because it encourages plenty of use! (Read more at thekitchn, Images: Jill Slater)

The next type of wood is maple. This type of wood has a timeless quality to it that many people adore. It is also one of the hardest woods and is considered by many to be the second most popular wood for kitchen cabinets. It features elegant mineral streaks and many variations in colors and grains. You will find that this wood is very sensitive to light and the color will seem to change depending on how much light is shining on it. Birch is almost identical to maple, just slightly darker and with a tad more grain. However, because it grows at a faster pace then maple it is typically much less expensive, pricing much closer to Oak. This enables those on a budget to achieve the beauty of maple without the extra cost.

If you would like to use a strong but less expensive wood for your kitchen cabinets, then the recommended type of wood for you is natural oak. It is a very strong type of wood that has a wide range of color from pink to almost white. It has a very straight grain and has a course texture. Today oak is typically less expensive then most other wood styles because it has lost its place as the most popular choice. It is still a classic though, and widely used for a more traditional kitchen look. (author)

When choosing new kitchen cabinets or replace kitchen cabinet doors, it is important to consider the type of wood species that you will use. Below is the list of common woods available today in kitchen cabinet doors:

Alder – Very similar grain pattern to Cherry and Maple. Considered to be a hardwood but beware. Alder is light in weight and will dent easily, so you must be careful with it. It takes most finishes well including the dark ones.

Pine: Features swirling grain and random knots. Used in its natural state, pine lends itself to a lodge/cabin feel.

Cherry – Smooth even grained hardwood with a very elegant warm look. Have some variations with some blond, green and gray strips. Cherry darkens with age especially when exposed to direct sunlight. May contain small knots and pin holes.

Maple – Smooth, even and fine grain. is more uniformed and could have slight variations with mineral streaks which are common. Harder wood that is more wear resistant than birch.

Oak – Very strong grain pattern. Noticeable variations in color. Oak is one of the stronger hardwoods.

Pecan – A stronger hardwood from the hickory family. Very dramatic color variations when new that will become less apparent with age. Will have knots and pin holes.

Quarter-Sawn Oak – Straight grain with medium to coarse texture and evenly spaced pores. White Oak that ranges in color from nearly white to dark gray heartwood. Quarter-sawn Oak is cut using the heart of the wood as the edge rather than the center which create a rich look. Heavy, hard, strong and durable.

Birch: Featuring dramatic color variation, smooth grain and dramatic color and shade variation, birch is light in weight but strong. A popular choice due to it’s similarity to maple, but less expensive than maple. Birch works well in any type of setting.. (part from Wood Species Characteristics)

More tips

Kitchens tend to be affected by humidity and temperature and your cabinets need to adjust to such changes in temperature. Solid wood often expands and contracts when exposed to such humidity, leading to warping. It may be a good idea to consider using hardwood veneer and laminate alternatives.

Hardwood veneer is a thin piece of solid wood that is typically applied to plywood or particleboard with glue to give it strength. It cost less than solid wood, its uniform in finish and its grain is very consistent. Using wood veneer in cabinet doors provides constancy by minimizing its shrinking and expansion in climate changes which ultimately eliminates cracking and splitting. Also, a stain can be added to blend doors to the rest of the cabinet structure.
