'What would “Ripley” be without its transfixing style, from the palpable isolation of a squalid New York apartment to the shadowy charms of ancient Italian streets?

Writer-director Steven Zaillian’s acclaimed eight-hour Netflix series isn’t merely a new adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s enduring thriller about an American tourist in coastal southern Italy embracing deceit and murder: It’s a coolly gorgeous black-and-white pleasure bath of sights, shades and textures. Beauty with darkness. Modern touches in ancient spaces. Art for con artist’s sake.

To achieve his vision of a 1960s Italy that would sweep viewers away right along with Andrew Scott’s dangerously impressionable protagonist, Zaillian assembled a murderer’s row (ahem) of design collaborators: Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Elswit, who’d worked with the director on the miniseries “The Night Of”; production designer David Gropman, an alum of Zaillian’s 1993 film “Searching for Bobby Fischer”; and Italian costume designers Maurizio Millenotti and Gianni Casalnuovo.

Elswit makes no bones about how important everyone’s set contributions were to the look and feel of “Ripley.” “It was such a clear ensemble of decisions based on Steve’s original ideas that we pursued for the whole [show],” he says. “We wanted to underlie the drama, be part of the storytelling, part of the emotional life of it.”

The production design

“A dream job” is how Gropman describes working on “Ripley,” starting with what Zaillian’s 400 dialogue-sparse script pages evoked, and ending with myriad locations across New York, Italy and at Rome’s fabled Cinecitta studios.

Early research led Gropman to the kinds of images that called out to be re-created. “When you’re doing Tom on the train from Cherbourg to Naples, and you pull up David Seymour’s photograph of Ingrid Bergman going from Naples to Cannes on the Orient Express, you know exactly what that train car looks like in black and white.” Another inspiring source was Piergiorgio Branzi, revered for his naturalistic postwar pictures of life in Italy. “Any photograph of his would fill a moment in [‘Ripley’].”

Months of scouting the Amalfi coast for the sleepy town holding Dickie Greenleaf’s villa led Gropman to quiet but picturesque Atrani. Three elements cinched it: The views from the road above were stunning, the piazza charmed, and what would become something of a location star for rapt viewers, “the incredible network of stairs, alleys and passageways.” The actual villa, however, was discovered in Capri, and completely outfitted in midcentury furniture and assorted antiques and artwork.

You can get to 200 locations and sets easily when a character is constantly on the move, and the norm is to crib from many places to suggest one. “For the Excelsior hotel in Rome,” says Gropman, “the exterior was the Hassler, the lobby was the Plaza, and two suites were an amazing 16th century palazzo in the middle of Rome.” And where exterior period authenticity couldn’t be counted on, CGI filled out plenty of backgrounds. “Train platforms, views out windows, and ferry docks were all big visual effects set extensions,” Gropman says.

As for what was built at Cinecitta, two favorite sets for Gropman were Tom’s New York hovel and his well-appointed, furnished Rome apartment. For every set, though, walls were never moved for the camera’s sake, “so you’re true to the claustrophobia,” says Gropman, and in the case of the dingy New York SRO, “the meanness of that space.”

Props were nearly as important, and Zaillian spent two days looking at demos. One story item, however — a Murano glass ashtray whose importance won’t be spoiled here — had already been chosen. “The ashtray is on one of Steve’s side tables at home in California,” says Gropman, laughing. “That will tell you a lot about Steve, and his ‘Ripley.’”

The cinematography

“Steve is the most meticulous, focused, precise director you could ever work with,” says Elswit of his “Ripley” writer-director. “He had a very clear concept of shooting in black and white, making a designed movie formally organized around tonal structure and graphic images.”

Elswit, who’s previously worked in black and white (“Good Night and Good Luck”), explains why cinematographers love the monochrome palette. “You can exploit the extremes between the brightest white and the blackest black. You exaggerate the contrast in their faces. You can feel it. Sense it. You really do create tension and anxiety through lighting. It’s been done since the beginning of movies.”

It’s even baked into Zaillian’s script. Ripley’s fascination with Caravaggio allowed the Italian master’s famed tenebrism — intense darkness and pockets of equally intense light — to also become a guiding aesthetic for Elswit. Caravaggio “was also obsessed with quality of light, its direction and the reality of it. Like a spotlight on what was interesting.”

Elswit says Italy’s very physicality lends itself to such extremes of light and shadow. “There’s so much texture when you’re looking at walls, streets, the surfaces of buildings, the cobblestones, stairways. It’s granite, plaster, rock, marble, whatever it is, and in black and white, it emphasizes the texture.”

Caravaggio and his era’s peers influenced the show’s look in another way. Elswit and Zaillian gave themselves an unusual rule in framing, to keep Renaissance and Baroque art’s straight-ahead perspective and avoid converging vertical lines, as would happen if a camera tilted up or down. It’s why so much of “Ripley” is a crisply edited procession of static shots, with only humans providing movement.

“That was built into every setup, indoors and out,” Elswit says. “We were going to have the picture plane parallel to the walls of structures we were shooting, always. The buildings couldn’t have converging lines. Steven wanted that formal graphic design.”

Zaillian also preferred overcast days, to avoid any sun-kissed hint of romance and warmth. But Elswit made great portentous use of a hot sky for when Ripley first encounters Dickie and Marge, lying on the gravel beach. “We had a high shot where we had Tom walk by them, and his shadow goes over them,” Elswit says. “I was thrilled. I’m not sure if Steve was at the time, but he ended up being happy with it. That was a wonderful advantage to a sunlit day!”

The costumes

Italy in the ‘60s may have been a fashion mecca, but that wasn’t how Millenotti and Casalnuovo saw the job Zaillian set out for them. “There was a focus on subtlety,” Casalnuovo wrote via email, speaking for the duo. “The costumes shouldn’t be flashy or distracting. Steve’s vision emphasized creating a sense of character and story through the clothing.”

Casting a wide net in their research — with a little over four months of pre-production time — the pair pored over photo books, archives, even vintage albums found in street markets, “searching for a nuanced understanding of the period,” Casalnuovo says. Their rummaging unearthed one socked-away trove containing unpublished pictures of everyday life in the story’s key cities. “This provided invaluable insight into the social fabric and atmosphere. This allowed us to create costumes steeped in authenticity and narrative depth.”

That meant capturing a moment when the world was turning away from formality, while areas like southern Italy still reflected class divisions. Lighter fabrics such as linen and cotton are presenting themselves, and yet the privilege Dickie Greenleaf (Johnny Flynn) represents hasn’t gone away. “Dickie’s wardrobe would be more tailored and polished. In contrast, characters of lower social standing would wear simpler, more practical clothing.”

With a black-and-white palette, however, certain scenes needed extra consideration, as when Tom Ripley’s swimsuit needed to set him apart at the beach. Highsmith wrote about a garish yellow/black checkered pair of trunks, but, says Casalnuovo, “a color contrast wouldn’t translate.” (As the final decision ultimately showed, an eye-opening fit and pattern humorously did the trick.)

Of course, when it came to Ripley overall, charting his sartorial trajectory, not surprisingly, was the designers’ most enjoyable project. “Ripley’s wardrobe is a chameleon’s act. Initially, his casual American style clashes with Dickie’s European flair. He subtly incorporates elements like polo shirts and loafers, mirroring Dickie to gain acceptance.” Getting from high-priced mimicry to Tom’s own personal style toward the end was a particular challenge, but the kind costume designers live for. “It was a process that demanded focus and a deep understanding of the character, but seeing it all come together was incredibly rewarding.”'

Versatile Dining Room Styles

Dining rooms can be used for a wide variety of purposes, so they need to be versatile. Choosing a color scheme and accents like curtains, rugs, and art can pull together a cohesive look.

Versatile Dining Room Design Ideas

The dining room of this Minnesota lake home tilts traditional, but shiplap walls and cane chairs loosen up the formality. A wood-burning fireplace warms up the space and doubles as a display for the homeowners' collection of pottery. You can make this happen when you buy a house with a versatile dining room design.

Dining tables that extend allow you to seat more people for dinner or create a larger buffet for holiday gatherings and parties. Typically, these tables have internal storage where the additional sections are housed when not in use. Some even have hinges or a self-storing mechanism to make it easier to expand the table.

When shopping for a dining room extendable table, consider the amount of seating you need on a daily basis and how many guests you expect to host for dinner or holidays. This will help you select the right table size and style to fit your space.

Steel Dining Chairs for a Contemporary Design

For a modern look, opt for a rectangular table with geometric lines and a clean finish. The contrast between the sleek structure and the natural wood grain adds visual interest to the space. Pair this with steel dining chairs for a contemporary design. If you prefer a more rustic style, try a farmhouse-inspired table with natural wood finishes and a reclaimed or distressed base.

A coordinating set of dining chairs and table is an easy way to make a dining room look complete. Matching tables and chairs also help create a cohesive look, which can be important when your space is open and needs to be divided into different functional areas.

Color is another quick and easy way to give your dining room a design update. Deep blues and greens are sophisticated choices that work well in this type of room, as they help to create a moody backdrop for candlelit dinners or intimate conversations.

Creates a Unified Feel and Gives Dining Room

Don't be afraid to go darker with your wall colors. Dining rooms are usually dark and receive little natural light, which makes them a great place to experiment with deeper hues. For a more dramatic effect, paint the ceiling the same color as the walls. This creates a unified feel and gives your dining room an instantly eye-catching focal point. For added storage, add a buffet or cabinets to the dining area. Adding glass-door cabinets helps declutter and can prevent dusting, while closed buffets offer hidden storage for rarely used dishes.

The lighting you choose to hang above your dining room table is an opportunity to create a statement. For high-impact, look for fixtures that relate to the shape of your table and mirror the style of other dining room furnishings, like chairs or rugs. For a more flexible design, opt for a mix of pendants or a chandelier that can be changed out easily to suit your mood.

A well-chosen fixture can also enliven a neutral palette. Here, a pair of copper pendants adds warmth to this mostly neutral space without overwhelming it. If your room features a lovely view or other wall decor, choose a fixture that will not obstruct the feature. Open styles like this three-arm midcentury chandelier are a great option, or you can go for a more minimal look with a cage chandelier or clear glass shade. Sconces are also a smart choice for flanking buffets, mirrors or artwork. They can even add a modern touch to a traditional or rustic dining room.

How to Decorate a Small Traditional Living Room

Whether your living room is a formal sitting area or a cozy TV spot, it should feel inviting and welcoming. Use traditional decor ideas to make this happen, like symmetrical display of art and neutral shades.

Tips to Choose Soft Color

Wall color plays a huge role in the final look of a room. Consider using a gray that’s warm and inviting, such as Down Pipe or French Gray, as suggested by Ruth Mottershead.

Many traditional living rooms feature a large sitting area that comfortably seats multiple family members and friends. This helps create a warm and inviting space to relax and entertain. Moreover, this kind of room can also double as an office or media room.

While it's not uncommon to see a variety of colors in traditional living rooms, an all-neutral color scheme is a popular choice as well. A soft neutral like white, beige, or gray can help open up a tight space and provide a blank canvas for the introduction of personal identity through cloth and pictures.

Make a Cozy Small Living Room

Whether in chic wide stripes or rustic french ticking linens, striped fabrics can be a great choice for furniture upholstery and window treatments in a small traditional living room. They're versatile and come in a range of weaves, weights, and hues to match any decor scheme. Moreover, washable slipcovers keep upholstered furniture looking fresh and up to date.

In traditional rooms, comfort is key. That means cozy chairs and large sofas that can easily be repositioned for sitting, relaxing, watching TV or reading. Decorative accents and fabric details like florals or paisleys add softness to the room. A patterned area rug can add pattern and warmth without overwhelming the space.

Traditionally-inspired spaces often feature wood accents and symmetrical furniture arrangements, like the sky blue living room by Rinfret, Ltd. Despite being traditional, the tightly upholstered furniture and midcentury modern sputnik chandelier create a sense of freshness that makes this room feel current and timeless.

Smart Living Room Design

While many small living rooms are painted in light neutrals, a deep shade of green can add warmth and personality to the space. Choose a color that is not too muddy and pairs well with the rest of your home decor, like Joa's White or Stirabout by Farrow and Ball. Glass-fronted cabinets can hold antiques and family heirlooms in a subtle way that doesn't detract from the space.

One of the easiest ways to add a decorative touch to traditional living rooms is with printed curtains. The fabric brings a relaxed feel to the space and works well with patterned wallpaper. The curtains also create a proportionate balance with plain yet stylish furniture. Moreover, they are ideal for creating a balanced color scheme. If you are in love with a particular print but are worried about it overpowering the room, choose a coordinating trim like pom-poms or beads.

Another option is to go with a solid color and frame the windows. This looks great when the curtains are in a shade similar to the paint color of the walls. You can even make them look textured by opting for a velvet curtain with a pinch pleat. If you want to have a luxurious living room, you can visit the site property.thegardengranny.com.

Incorporating Coastal Style and Natural Elements in Your Florida Home

Interior design can be tricky regardless of where you’re located. When you choose to live close to the shore in a place like Florida, you likely love the beach and all it has to offer. However, decorating your home with coastal elements can be challenging to achieve a beach theme without it looking tacky. 

Among other interior designs, the coastal style is increasingly popular in Florida. Decorate your home to give off beach or coastal vibes in a tasteful way with these elements and design ideas. 

What Is Coastal Style? 

Coastal style is often confused with nautical style because when you think about the coast, you think about beach vibes which can lead to submarine-type thoughts. While a coastal look incorporates elements from the beach, it doesn’t necessarily portray a beach-themed design. A coastal interior design focuses on soft features, faded neutrals and natural materials. 

Decorating with a coastal style typically involves a neutral color scheme inspired by the shore. Think about natural elements by the shore and use those colors as inspiration like light blues, greens and beige tones. Draw inspiration from walking along a shore of a rocky beach and taking in everything around you from the fresh, salty air to the beach beneath your feet. 

A neutral color scheme is always a safe bet with coastal design, but you can add navy blue or sea green pops for a personal touch. Color combinations like pink and green and beige and turquoise provide a calm and tranquil vibe, which nails the overall goal of coastal style. Coastal design uses natural materials like wood, rattan and wicker for things like furniture and linen and cotton for natural materials. 

Coastal Design Ideas 

Decorating with coastal design doesn’t have to be a challenge. You can incorporate other popular interior designs in Florida into your coastal home. Interior designs like Modern Rustic Industrial, Minimalism, Scandinavian, Midcentury Modern, Contemporary, French Country, Boho Chic, Spanish Mediterranean and French Country are very in style right now. 

Midcentury Modern design is increasingly popular in many states and features furnishings from the mid-20th century that can easily be incorporated into the coastal design style. A bamboo end table built from walnut wood is a perfect choice for a living room decorated in coastal design. Modern ceramic vases would make excellent additions to a table or mantle in a room decorated in a coastal style. Some other coastal style ideas to consider are lighting, flooring, textures and decor.

Accent Lighting 

The coastal design aims for as much natural light as possible. A home built with interior design would typically offer large windows and framing landscapes to emphasize the natural light. Coastal lighting features clean and simple lines with nautical elements like you’d see in a lighthouse or submarine. Consider using lights with metallic or weathered finishes to add a nautical feel to your coastal design. 

Accent lightings like wall sconces and candles give off natural light and can add to the coastal vibe of your home. Hanging lights or pendants over a kitchen island create an airy and natural flow to the room that opens up the space. Tiki torches, lanterns and adjustable spotlights are excellent for an outdoor space that wants to incorporate coastal design. 

Flooring Options

If you’re renovating or building and you can choose the flooring materials, you’ll want to choose wisely. Florida homes, especially by the beach might require specific flooring. A high-traffic beach home will need something easy to clean and maintain, like ceramic tile. You can customize ceramic tile to fit your style, so it’s a versatile choice for any type of home design. Hardwood floors are also perfect for coastal design since they look stunning in every home. 

High-traffic areas are no match for hardwood since they weather nicely and add a sophisticated look to any room. Installing hardwood floors should be the last thing on your renovation list so the wood can acclimate. The most important thing to note about hardwood flooring is that they can be easily affected by moisture. For this reason, the humidity level in your home should be below 50%. Vinyl is a perfect flooring option for a beach home since it’s waterproof and can withstand moist and humid conditions. 

Adding Textures

Textures play a significant role in interior design regardless of the style you’re trying to achieve. For example, the right area rug can transform a space and emphasize your flooring, adding to the room's overall feel. The right textures can make or break a space. Consider soft linens to accent the windows and allow natural light into the room. Incorporate natural elements such as wood and sand into your decor to create a warm and inviting feel. 

You want to try to recreate the feeling of your toes touching the sand when you arrive at the beach. Surround yourself with wood, rattan and jute textures to achieve that rustic feel with sophisticated and tasteful accents. Mix and match these textures to create vacation vibes that pull everything together. Coastal grandma style is a trend that incorporates Minimalism into its design by avoiding seashells and lending an airy, effortlessly chic feel. Use chunky knit accents, whitewashed driftwood, and brushed nickel hardware to achieve this look. 

 Wall Coverings and Decor

You’ll want to avoid a nautical design for your walls by avoiding stripes, anchors and seashells. Coastal design is about simple, clean lines that bring the outside into the home. Find pieces of art that involve water, clouds and other aspects of the coastline for a warm inviting beach feel without the outdated decor. Incorporate natural elements into your wall decor with wooden frames and wicker baskets hanging on the walls as decor. You can also elevate your space by covering your walls in natural elements like grasscloth wallpaper.

Find art pieces like photos of plants or other natural elements that resonate with your space. Add a rustic mirror or weathered wooden picture frames with family photos in them. Old window panes make excellent wall decor stacked or placed on a mantle. Natural wooden shelves with vases filled with plants or flowers can elevate your wall decor. Painting an accent wall to add a pop of color can also personalize walls within a space. 

Coastal Interior Design Style

Coastal homes are fun to decorate, but your home doesn’t have to be coastal to include a coastal design style. You can incorporate natural elements into any design style, like bamboo furniture, cotton accents and wicker baskets. Find your personal style and incorporate elements that resonate with you to achieve the perfect aesthetic for your Florida home.

Creating an Open Atmosphere With Open Shelving in Modern Kitchen Design

Display your favorite mugs and cookware on open shelves to make everyday items easier to grab. This kitchen from Next Luxury pairs wood shelves with sleek modern lower cabinetry for an airy yet homey atmosphere.

Streamline your aesthetic by continuing your backsplash tiling onto the shelving design to highlight color and texture. But beware of a cluttered look if you go overboard!

Sense of Openness

If you’re looking for a brighter, more open and airy kitchen, you can’t go wrong with open shelving. It’s a popular design choice that is equally at home in modern, minimalist and rustic kitchen designs.

However, the fact that everything is on display can be a drawback for some. If you are a stickler for cleanliness and hygienic cooking, then open shelves may not be the best option for you.

For those who love the look of open shelving but are not so sure about keeping all your kitchen items visible, consider introducing a mix of cabinets with opaque glass doors into your design plan as well. Open shelving can be an excellent way to add personality to your kitchen and to show off a unique collection like this wine bottle display featured on Omenga PLC.

Accessibility

If you love to entertain guests, a kitchen full of open shelves makes it easy for everyone to grab a cup of coffee or extra plates. Similarly, you won’t have to search through cabinets for the juicer you stashed away, as it will be prominently displayed.

Open shelving is also a great way to showcase your favorite china or pottery collection. When arranging your pieces, consider color and texture to add visual interest to your shelves. A mix of blue and red midcentury vases, for example, will look more interesting than a monochromatic set of white ceramics.

If you’re concerned about the safety of displaying fragile items on your open shelves, consult a contractor to ensure that your shelves are mounted securely to the wall. Additionally, be sure to install a range hood to suck up any airborne grease before it hits your countertops. This will keep your home and kitchen safer, especially if you have kids or pets.

Functionality

When styled well, open shelves can be a stylish and functional alternative to upper cabinets. They’re especially useful in a kitchen with unique architectural details that wouldn’t work with cabinetry or in a room with a high ceiling.

However, if you’re not careful, your open shelving can become unruly and cluttered. You’ll need to suppress your hoarder tendencies and only display items that you use regularly. Additionally, open shelves collect dust more quickly than cabinets and need to be cleaned more often.

For a less messy and more practical option, consider glass-front cabinets instead of open shelves. They’re a great way to keep your finest mugs, teapots and plates on display but still have everything you need within reach. They’re also easier to maintain than open shelving because you can just wipe down the surface with a cloth. They’re also a good choice if you have children or pets who might accidentally knock over stacked dishes and glasses on an open shelf.

Visual Appeal

Aside from being a functional feature, open shelving is also a great way to add visual interest to your kitchen. It’s the perfect space to show off your favorite decorative dishes, pottery or even a collection of glassware. Just be sure to keep a clean and uncluttered look in mind when styling your shelves.

A neutral color palette will maintain a clean, modern look, but you can also introduce a variety of textures and materials like glass, ceramics or woven baskets to create a more eclectic appeal. Displaying a mix of vintage platters and wooden cutting boards can bring your style to life, as seen in this gorgeous kitchen by designer Mallory Kaye.

If you have children or live in earthquake-prone areas, it may be a good idea to keep heavy items like utensils, pots and pans off of open shelves or use them in cabinets to minimize the risk of breakage. Also, consider installing a range hood to suck up any airborne grease that may make its way onto your open shelves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I start when I want a new kitchen?

Start by making a list of all your needs and wants. This will help you communicate your needs to potential kitchen designers, remodelers, and contractors.

Budget: How much should you budget for your new kitchen?

– Size. How large is your kitchen. What size kitchen do you need?

Layout: How is your kitchen laid out? Will you need to change the layout of your kitchen?

– Appliances: What appliances do you want in your new kitchen?

– Storage. How will you store all your food in your new Kitchen?

– Style: Which style of kitchen do your want? Traditional, contemporary, rustic, etc.

– Colours: What are your preferred colors for your new kitchen design?

You can now start planning your kitchen remodel after you’ve taken into account all these aspects.

What are some common mistakes made when renovating your kitchen?

The wrong place could make it difficult to install a new kitchen.

The dishwasher should not be placed too close to the sink. This could cause wet floors.

If the fridge is placed next the oven, it can make opening the door difficult.

It can be difficult to have enough counter space.

Another mistake is not having enough storage. You should have enough shelves and cabinets for all kitchen gadgets.

It is difficult to choose the right appliances for a kitchen remodel.

They should be able to fit in the space and efficient on energy.

This is a mistake. A professional can make sure everything fits into the space and is accurate to scale.

Doing too much is a common mistake when renovating a kitchen. You must know your limits, and when to call for help. This is key to a successful renovation of your kitchen.

Not planning for enough budget is a mistake. Kitchens can be expensive so make sure you have enough money to cover all costs.

Uncertainty about what you want can lead to a disaster. Before you begin a renovation, you need to have an idea of the style, layout and finishes that you want.

These are just a few of the common mistakes people make when remodeling their kitchens. For these types of mistakes to be avoided, it is important that you consult a professional first before beginning your project. If you are careful about planning and execution, your kitchen renovation will be a success.

Can a stove and refrigerator be side by side?

You can have them side by side as long as there is enough room. This isn’t a good practice for kitchen design. It can create wasted space and make the kitchen cramped. It’s better to place the stove and refrigerator in different areas of your kitchen. This creates a more efficient workflow, and the kitchen feels larger.

Which layout is best for your kitchen?

If you have the space, an L-shaped Kitchen with an Island is the best.

Do I need a kitchen remodel?

A kitchen remodel can be expensive so you need to make sure it’s right for your home. You should consider many things when remodeling your kitchen. These include the age of your current kitchen and how it’s been maintained, your family’s lifestyle and budget, as well as your financial resources.

Remodeling your kitchen can make it functional and modern. If your family is growing, a remodel could provide more storage space and counter space. And if you’re looking to add value to your home, a well-designed kitchen can do just that.

On the other hand, a kitchen remodel is not always the best solution. If your kitchen is in good condition and you’re happy with its layout, there’s no need to spend the money on a complete renovation. Focus instead on small, affordable changes that will make the space feel more spacious.

So, how do you know if a kitchen remodel is right for you? Here are some questions that you can ask:

Is your current kitchen functional? Remodeling can be a great option if your kitchen is outdated, inefficiently stored, or not functional.

Is your kitchen in desperate need of repairs? You may need to remodel your kitchen if your cabinets are deteriorating or your appliances are out of date. To fix these issues, a full kitchen remodel is likely to be required.

Are you looking for ways to increase your home’s value? A kitchen remodel is a big investment regardless of whether you intend to sell your home in the next few months. A well-designed, attractive kitchen can make your house more appealing to potential buyers. It will also increase its resale market value.

What is your budget? A kitchen remodel can be costly so it is important to establish a realistic budget. Be sure to factor in the cost of materials, labour, and permits when estimating the total cost of your project.

A kitchen remodel may be the right choice for you if you answered “yes” to any of these questions. Talk to a contractor to discuss your plans and get started. You can create the kitchen of your dreams with careful planning and execution.

What is a reasonable budget for a Metro Vancouver kitchen remodel?

Metro Vancouver’s kitchen remodeling budget is reasonable at $50,000. This would include new appliances, countertops and cabinets, flooring, as well as lighting.

How long does a kitchen renovation take to complete?

Once the cabinets are manufactured, the process should take around three weeks. However, it can take months to design or manufacture custom cabinets. The entire process can take many months from start to finish.

Statistics

“We decided to strip and refinish our kitchen cabinets during a heat wave with 90-plus-degree temperatures and 90 percent humidity in a house with no air conditioning. (familyhandyman.com)

In large firms, the commission charged by the GC ranges from 15 to 25 percent of the total job cost. (thespruce.com)

According to Burgin, some hinges have this feature built-in, but it’s an add-on cost for other models of about $5 retail, adding up to $350 to $500 for an entire kitchen, depending on size. (hgtv.com)

This is rather grim, but according to Business Insider, 12 percent of couples consider getting a divorce while renovating their home! (familyhandyman.com)

Experts also recommend setting aside 20 percent of your budget for surprises, including unpleasant demolition discoveries. One is water damage, the electricity that is not up to code, or other budget-spiking gotchas. (hgtv.com)

Amazing Kitchen Remodel Ideas to Refresh Your Home

How To

How to design a kitchen you’ll love cooking in for years to come

Kitchen designs should be designed with functionalities, aesthetics, and practicality. So that your kitchen is a place you feel at ease, can cook delicious food and entertain friends and family, and where you can unwind after a long day, you should plan carefully.

Here are some suggestions to help you plan the perfect kitchen.

Determine the layout that best suits your needs. The three most popular kitchen layouts are L-shaped, U-shaped, and galley. L-shaped kitchens can accommodate multiple cooks and are ideal for entertaining. U-shaped kitchens are great for families who spend lots of time in the kitchen. There is plenty of storage space and counter space. Galley kitchens work well in small spaces because they are efficient and simple to use.

Look into different types of cabinetry options and choose quality products. There are many options depending on your budget. It will pay big dividends to invest in high-end cabinets. They’ll last longer, look better, and provide superior protection against moisture, humidity, and temperature changes.

Pick a color scheme to make you happy. No matter what color you like, you can find a color combination that will bring life and color into your kitchen. It can be bright colors and soft pastels. It should match the rest of your room.

Look for a harmonious balance between beauty, function, and style. It’s not necessary for your kitchen to be beautiful all of the time. Sometimes you need to focus more on functionality than looks. However, this does not mean that you shouldn’t include some decorative elements. You can create a unique focal point by using a combination of glass, metal, brass, ceramics, stone, wood, and other materials.

Create a comfortable environment. Comfort is key when designing your kitchen. You’ll spend a lot of time in this space, so it needs to feel inviting and welcoming. Consider adding seating areas and lighting fixtures to make it more relaxing after a hard day.

Don’t forget about storage. Storage space is essential in a kitchen. It should have enough storage for all your cooking and utensils. If you’re thinking of remodeling your kitchen, add more cabinets.

Include a pantry. A pantry allows you to efficiently organize and store food items. Plus, having a separate area where you can stockpile extra supplies will prevent clutter from building up around the rest of your kitchen.

Consider new flooring. Your kitchen’s overall appearance and feel will be affected by the flooring you choose. There are many choices. You can save space by using the same flooring in all rooms.

Plan for expansion. Insufficient space for future growth is one of the most common mistakes made when remodeling a kitchen. You should consider expanding your kitchen by installing sliding doors, adding another walk in closet, or increasing the counter space.

You should ensure that there is enough light. It’s the best way to appreciate your kitchen. Your kitchen should be used as a place to gather with family members.

Install energy-efficient appliances. Energy efficiency is one of the most important considerations when remodeling your kitchen. This means you need to replace older appliances with more energy-efficient models.

Be careful about what you spend. Analyze your financial situation before you start shopping for kitchen appliances and cabinets. Knowing how much money you can afford will help you narrow down your options and save you money in the long run.

Make sure you have a designated space for entertaining. Whether you enjoy hosting dinner parties or entertaining friends over drinks, a designated area for dining will allow your guests to socialize and gather.

An island can be added to your kitchen. An island is a great addition for any kitchen.

5 Modern Bathroom Design Ideas for Private Luxury

Modern bathroom designs are an underrated but integral part of your overall home décor. More and more people have expressed that they prefer a simple and minimalistic design for their bathroom. Bathrooms are domestic facilities that you would every day, hence designing with grandeur and panache doesn't suit the cause by any measure. Your bathroom must be designed with your needs and preferences in mind. If done correctly, your bathroom can become a refreshing and relaxing escape route from the external world's hustle and bustle.

Here are five modern bathroom design ideas that are perfect for private luxury.

Mid-Century Modern Style

Industry observers and experts have termed the mid-19th century architecture and interior designing as the midcentury modern style. Careful studying will show that most architectural examples from this era feature geometric shapes and straight lines, and natural colors. It's often considered fashionable and classy to go with the midcentury modern style for your bathroom designing. You can start with a focal point, a modern chair, a small sofa, in this instance, right at the corner. Then further complement that setting with midcentury setting and aesthetics. 

Minimalist Design

One of the essential elements that come to the fore when discussing modern design is simplicity and minimalism. Your best choice for modern bathroom designing must include an open bathroom with no clutter at all. It could feature build-in shelves and cabinetry to accommodate all your personal belongings, mainly your toiletries and novelty items. It must have ample clean spaces for relaxation. Additionally, it would be best if you steered clear of the urge to accessorize empty spaces as that would mean going against the modern design. 

Master Design

Extending the conversation forward, you can also consider a master design bathroom as an adequate private luxury representation. It won't be wrong to mistake a master bathroom for a professional spa center. It's crucial to mention that master bathroom designs are familiar with bungalows and penthouses because this kind of attachment requires big spaces. Such bathrooms are fully stocked with appliances and facilities such as a double sink, water closet, bathtub, and other high-end products.

Complete Setup Design

The next best alternative to a master bathroom design would be a complete setup design. Much like the name, this modern bathroom design is a total treat. They are primarily practical if you have a family, as only then you can use the available space justifiably. The full bathrooms often give people spa-like vibes. It's safe to claim that if any bathroom facility is missing the like basin, water closet, shower, and bathtub, that facility cannot qualify as a full bathroom design. 

Three Quarter Design

Lastly, there is the three quarter bathroom design, which marginally differs from either modern or full bathroom set up designs. This one is smaller in structure than most designs on the list. The presence of bold colors and eye-pleasing aesthetics make it seem significant. 

Three-quarter bathrooms are almost identical in features to just mentioned alternatives and offer a superior relaxation.

Conclusion

It would be best to consider the space available inside a bathroom while going through the designs. This way, you get to pick the ideal bathroom design option for your house. For further information, you must reach designer bathroom renovations Port Macquarie.
