Kitchen & Bathroom Design Blog

Whether you are updating your home to live in or preparing your home to sell, having a modern, functional, and beautiful kitchen and bathroom is critical. These areas are the most used rooms in a home, by family and guests. Therefore, it is important that these rooms reflect the personalities of those who live there.

In historic Newtown, PA, January tends to bring us cold and sometimes stormy weather.  The new year also offers the perfect time to reflect on our kitchen and bath design achievements from the previous year and think about our goals for the year ahead.  There’s no better way to kick off the year than by attending the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) held by the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA). 

our home should be a refuge, and leave you feeling comfortable in every room.  This means your home design must reflect not only your personal tastes, but also the functional needs of the household.  Every family is unique, and the requirements of the family members change over time depending on the stage of life. 

Have you found the perfect home in your ideal location and plan to stay long-term?  No more packing your life into boxes and moving?  It is exciting to get settled into a home where you plan to raise a family, see your kids move on as adults, and perhaps age in place.  Just like your family evolves over time, your home design must adapt to fit your stage of life.

The kitchen layout is the main starting point for any kitchen remodeling project.  You must get this piece of the design puzzle right first.  Understand your space, who will be using the kitchen and for what purposes, and design a layout that promotes an easy workflow through the kitchen.    
While today’s kitchen serves many purposes, the heart of the kitchen is still food – storage, cooking, and eating.  A key part of your layout is careful positioning of appliances to meet these needs.

We spend most of our time in the showroom and with customers.   This is where we put our kitchen and bath design expertise into practice by providing design solutions that enhance our customers’ lifestyles.   A few times a year, we take a few days away from the showroom to learn about the latest design trends and business practices, and to share knowledge among a network of kitchen and bath design experts from across the country.

The vanity is often a centerpiece of a bathroom design. Vanities come in all shapes, sizes, and styles to suit any type of bathroom.  They are an ideal way to enhance the style of your design while also creating valuable storage space.  One way to increase the available storage while also creating an eye-catching design feature is to include a multi-level vanity design.
