NKBA & KBIS Jan. 31 - Feb. 2




We are kicking off 2023 by attending the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) Kitchen & Bath Business (KBB) Design Show In Vegas. We are excited and look forward to sharing with you the latest trends for kitchens and bathrooms when we get back. In the meantime here are 9 ways to improve your kitchen.


9 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR KITCHEN

1.

Prioritize what you need vs. what you want in your kitchen.

Start by identifying your needs and wants. Needs is something that is necessary to live and function and wants is something that can improve your quality of life.


2.

Make sure your expectations match the reality of the renovations.


Most of us want this and sometimes depending on the structure we can achieve it.


3.

Openly discuss all obstacles that could lead to problems.

We can encounter obstacles along the way. Some can be unforeseen but we must address the obvious ones and discuss a plan to resolve them.


4.

Have a design plan of action with solutions before you begin.

Always start with a layout plan that way all aspects of the design are covered and discussed.


5.

Change your mind set as to how you used the space prior.

Be open to change how you used your space.


6.

Keep a diary of your daily activities to reflect your lifestyle.

This will help to identify the flow and how you use the space and how to improve it.


7.

Then separate those functions into zones for your kitchen.

By creating zones each will have how it will improve how you use the space and keep your kitchen organized.


8.

Prioritize again which kitchen zones do you need vs want.

Put your needs first and the wants second.


9.

Ask questions stay informed and trust each step of the process.

NO QUESTION IS STUPID
