Traditional Kitchens
These kitchens have very traditional wood cabinetry and stone and/or wood counters. This is often the first thing people think of when they think “kitchen.” It is a classic way to redesign a kitchen and it has a long lifespan. Often if you go with a more traditional look it will stay stylish longer and does not need quite as much done to freshen its look later.
Modern Kitchens
All of the kitchens in this section have a similar theme- appliances are all stainless steel, cabinets are smooth, and lines are clean. Horizontal cabinetry and glass/acrylic doors are also popular new ways to add style to your kitchen, especially if you add stainless steel hardware. These tricks make for a very modern looking kitchen.
Eclectic Kitchens
Generally, these kitchens are similar to traditional kitchens; however they incorporate aspects of color and design that make them a little different. They can have a specific theme or even just an original style of cabinetry. Often there is something that stands out such as a vibrant backsplash or island. Sometimes the look is achieved by combining different textures like a blackboard, metal, and wood.
