Deciding to stay in your Edmonton home for another year doesn’t mean you have to be stuck with your current layout. By renovating your kitchen, you can make the most of the space that you have. Does your space feel small or cluttered? Do you want a new home that speaks to modern trends? Design a new kitchen with Peak Improvements that optimizes your current square footage in terms of storage, functionality and comfort. Below are a few ideas on how you can renovate your kitchen this year. Choose your favourite ideas and let us know!
Make Your Kitchen Feel Bigger
Small kitchens aren’t the end of the world. With the right renovations, you can have a kitchen that feels bigger and looks amazing. One of the easiest changes you can do to make your kitchen feel bigger instantly is to remove any change in flooring between the kitchen and the rooms surrounding it. Consistent flooring that leads from one room to another will get rid of any illusion of division between rooms. Adding to this, Peak Improvements can knock down any unessential walls that box in the kitchen. An open-concept kitchen provides more room to move around and easier access to the rest of the home.
Another great option is to forgo walk-in pantries and instead use cabinet pantries. The added floor space you get from removing the walk-in pantry might feel small but it can be significant in changing how big the kitchen appears. Lastly, adding or enlarging windows brings in more natural sunlight and gives the illusion of more space.
Save Room with These Renovations
A beautiful kitchen is not the same as a functional kitchen. It’s easier to create an aesthetically pleasing kitchen, but creating a custom kitchen that accommodates storing your large countertop appliances within the kitchen can save you time running to and from your basement or storage room. Our designers at Peak Improvements will talk to you about which appliances you use and how often, and design custom cabinets for your kitchen renovation that allow easy access to all your countertop appliances. We work with you on your budget to design the proper kitchen renovations to organize the space you have.
Add a Touch of Modern
Navy blue and dark green are appearing left and right in homes all over Edmonton. If you’re looking to add a touch of modernity to your kitchen’s interior this summer, consider combining these colours with natural wood cabinets such as oak. Even simple changes like replacing hardware with gold hardware might be enough to update your kitchen. Or, go for some double-french doors to the backyard for added elegance. Any kitchen renovations you want, Peak Improvements can help with!
