Wonder what’s cooking in kitchen design? Inspired Remodels, local Orange County general contractors, have been busy whipping up beautiful and functional kitchens.

The personal style of the homeowner gets baked into every kitchen remodel and renovation when Inspired Remodels is on the job.

Here is a look at what can happen in the kitchen in the hands of awesome general contractors with a design-build approach to kitchen renovation.

Turning Up the Heat on Functionality in Coto de Caza Kitchens

It doesn’t matter how great a kitchen looks, if it isn’t functional it isn’t a kitchen. Inspired Remodels created this dream Coto de Caza kitchen to work as well as it looks.

And it looks great! The soft green, gray, and white tones create a room that’s soothing to the senses. Ample drawers and cabinets offer storage space aplenty.

And this busy baker gets a workstation and storage for the essential Kitchen-Aid stand mixer.

This small touch represents the large amount of thought that goes into kitchen design when pro design-build general contractors do the work.

Take a step back and you’ll see the kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area. Now that’s an open concept that works beautifully.

Black and White and Style All Over

What’s black and white with style all over? Why another incredible kitchen renovation in the hands of Inspired Remodels!

A bar creates the transition from kitchen, to living, to outdoors. And La Cantina doors bring all three spaces together.

Bold black with gold accents goes big in the style department.

This kitchen renovation uses black and white to create a clean and classic style that endures. That little touch of black from custom cabinet hardware and the kitchen faucet are all this kitchen needs. Remember, hardware acts as jewelry for your cabinets. Every classic ensemble uses just a bit of jewelry, and every classic kitchen remodel does the same.

The same black, white, and gold used in the first kitchen come together for a completely different look. Same colors, used differently and you get a completely different look!

Orange County Flooring Contractor Floors Trends 2024

By / Bathroom Remodel, Home Improvement, Kitchen Remodel / Comments Off on Orange County Flooring Contractor Floors Trends 2024

Inspired Remodels, a leading Orange County flooring contractor, never stops looking forward.  Orange County homeowners thinking of new floors for the new year, should take a look at these trends for 2024. And when it comes time to hire a flooring contractor, don’t forget to look at Inspired Remodels.

Dark Floors

Dark flooring doesn’t have to be intimidating when it comes to interior design. Brightening up a space is as simple as using a lighter color scheme in other areas. If you’re installing black flooring throughout an entire room, for instance, a rug in a light color like beige, cream, or white would be a nice accent. This won’t take away from the floor, but rather add brightness to an otherwise dim area.

Paint walls a light color and instantly the room appears taller and more spacious.

Notice how light paint on the walls and light subway tile in the shower combine with the dark floor to make this bathroom appear more spacious and airy. You also enjoy a bit of drama with dark floors. Replace those dark floors with light tile and the drama melts away.

Timeless Stands

When a flooring contractor says “timeless”, they mean it. Some things really never go out of style.

What was timeless in 2014 stays timeless in 2024. Neutral tones rock floors through the decades. With beige, natural,  neutral, and grey floors you have a timeless base for building a variety of styles.

Walnut Wood Floors with step

Popular for Resale

Buyers want hardwood floors. Planks may get wider, but the demand for hardwood floors doesn’t fade away.

When it comes to recouping your money, wood flooring reigns supreme. Whether you go with the walnut featured above or pick a hickory or oak floor, you’ll make an investment in home value.

National Association of Realtors estimates that you recover 106% of the cost in added resale value.  That’s more than completing a kitchen or bathroom remodel. If you think selling your home is on the 2024 or 2025 horizon, add wood floors now and beat inflation. You’ll pay less now and get more in the future.

Stone and Wood

Natural building materials add timeless charm to any design. In 2024, both stone and wood play well together in almost any combination.

Stone on the wall and wood on the floor? Check!

Stone on the floor and barn door wood? Check!

No matter how you pair these two materials in 2024, you’ll love the results.

Does your kitchen provide space in the way you want to use it? Do you need space for entertaining but have abundant storage room?  Is it a kitchen built for one in a family of 2 or 3 budding gourmands? A kitchen remodel provides an updated look to the room and should also improve functionality.

In other words, when you plan a kitchen remodel, do you consider more than finishes and appliances?  You should. Inspired Remodels considers how the room will be used in the design phase. So, the entire kitchen remodel focuses on making the most of the space and making the space fabulous.

Creating a Hard-Working Kitchen

For some cooks, the most important appliance in the kitchen is the microwave. This is where they make the Easy Mac and pop the Orville Redenbachers. To a serious baker, you aren’t going to get between them and their convection oven. But, bakers rely on their Kitchen Aid stand mixer as the workhorse. From kneading dough to mixing batters and frostings to making meringues.

The Orange County Kitchen Remodel incorporates a Kitchen Aid station in the island. There’s room to store the appliance and attachments, as well as a sturdy work surface for when the unit is in use.

That’s adding functionality!

Creating an Organized Kitchen

Everything has a place, and everything is in its place.

Sometimes that’s easier said than done. Except somehow it is all a bit easier when Inspired Remodels creates your kitchen remodel design.
