Task lighting provides the necessary illumination for the cook to work safely. But lighting from recessed lights or pendant lights doesn’t always shine where you need it to.

Enter undercabinet lighting.

This lighting provides the illumination necessary to chop, mince, measure, and mix accurately and safely. And after the kitchen closes, it provides soft accent lighting.

This kitchen uses recessed, pendant, and undercabinet lighting for the right light for any situation.

Two-Tone Cabinets

Mix it up and make color work for you. Whether you mix upper and lower cabinet colors or use contrasting cabinets for an island, two-tone cabinets create fabulous spaces.

In this kitchen, the white Shaker-style cabinets get a bit of warmth from the contrasting dark wood cabinets in the island.

But add a splash of blue and create an icy cool spot you’ll want to enjoy even on the hottest days.

More Than a Backsplash

Backsplashes provide an easy-to-clean surface between the countertop and the base of the upper cabinet. Traditionally, they are used where heat or water comes into play.

But why stop there?  Take tile and create a work of art that carries through the entire wall.

Whether it’s the herringbone pattern that gives this wall a bit of complexity.

Or, the subway tile to the ceiling that provides clean lines in this stunning white kitchen. Tile gives you unlimited creativity to create a space as unique as your style.

Vent Hood as Art

Where there is fire there is heat and often smoke. A vent above the cooking surface provides essential ventilation to remove smoke and heat from the cooking area. Ideally, the vent moves the air outside taking cooking odors and smoke with it.

No matter where it vents, there’s no reason your ventilation must be functional. Since many hoods are metal, they can be shaped creatively. Sure, you can go for a straight industrial-style hood but why would you?

A covered hood crafted to match the cabinet is timeless.

All hoods aren’t stainless. This rubbed bronze hood is the perfect foil for stainless appliances.

Flooring You’ll Fall For

A major part of any Orange County kitchen renovation is new flooring. Kitchen flooring must provide a durable surface that’s easy to clean.

That doesn’t mean it needs to be boring. Pick an Emser tile or hardwood flooring from Shaw and see your floor as a blank palette.

Use patterns to bring interest to your flooring.

Make the floors an accent piece by using a contrasting color.

Light floors and dark cabinets spell drama for this kitchen renovation.
