What are three factors to consider to ensure that my kitchen will still look good — not dated — 10 years from now?
“To help ensure that your kitchen renovation stands the test of time, the selections you make for your new kitchen should be consistent with the style of the house — e.g., the materials and style of the cabinets, countertops, architectural elements and other accessories should blend with the total home design. Second, consider refraining from the latest trend unless it’s exactly what you’ve been dreaming of, and choose materials that will hold up under the normal wear-and-tear of a kitchen so the space will always look new. Finally, vibrant colors or bold patterns in foundational elements such as cabinets, countertops, backsplash or flooring can date a space very quickly — it’s best to keep those strong elements to the fabric, paint and accessories, all of which can be easily changed/updated later.”
