There are some of us who wish to have a kitchen that is professional, not only in usage but also in appearance. We want every aspect of our kitchen just like the way it should be and not the way our guests would love it. However, this does not mean disregarding the value of looks. We make sure that our kitchen has the perfect tip-top appearance along with as much professionalism as possible.
It can easily be said that as far as a professional kitchen décor is concerned, RTA kitchen cabinets play a primary role. Their customizable nature, small size, high durability, and varied styles and finishes make them a perfect addition to any professional kitchen space. Plus getting to assemble your kitchen cabinets yourself is always a rewarding experience. However, as they say about relationships, “it is the little things that matter”; and it is the same with your relationship with your kitchen as well.
Here Are 5 Little Things To Take Care Of In Order To Give Your Kitchen A Professional Look:
- Cabinet Hardware: This is an important thing to take care of. As kitchen cabinets are one of the most prominent aspects of your kitchen, any mark or fade in appearance is very much clear to the eyes. If need be, change the cabinet doors if need be to have an updated feel. To carry an overall appeal, try matching accent finishes with those of other rooms. You can also go for silver or metal finish for the cabinet knobs and pulls to provide a sleek modern touch.
Vintage kitchen cabinets give your kitchen a timeless appeal which can create a perfect transitional appeal for your kitchen when accompanied by a professional modern look. Opt for white or cherry color cabinets for a perfect vintage vibe.
- Artworks: Remember how in the movie Ratatouille, the Hotel Gusteau’s had a framed portrait of Gusteau’s up on the restaurant’s office wall? It was their reason for pride and their source of inspiration. In the same way, you too can put up a picture or artwork that inspires you. It will not only add to your cooking experience but also make your kitchen stand apart by making it a piece of art itself.
Complement your vintage kitchen cabinets greatly by putting up a B&W framed picture of your favorite actor or actress, on a wall that is empty for the most part. Or, go for abstract painting. Either way, it can work wonders for the professional look of your kitchen.
- Lights: A perfect way to reflect the professionalism of your kitchen is by the use of suitable light fixtures. Professional kitchens seldom have minimal light fittings that reflect modernism. You can do this with the help of minimalistic globe lights or pendant lights that have a warm white or yello w shade. Under-cabinet lights are also a perfect reflection of professionalism. Install a dimmer switch if you can to control the brightness. (A professional kitchen is always well-lit even when not in use. The dimmer switch will help save electricity while the lights are still on, and appear beautiful, especially at night.)
Vintage kitchen cabinets are perfect for having under-cabinet lighting, especially cherry or walnut finishes.
- Fill The Corner: If there is an empty corner in your kitchen that appears emptier than it is for real, turn it into a cozy corner with a throw pillow and a blanket. Opt for the same color as your vintage kitchen cabinets to get them perfect complementing look. A professional needs some rest too. Place a few books to have a perfect relax-time. Or if you have a table, add a small centerpiece using real, and not fake, fruits for a more inviting look.
- Clear The Clutter: Last but not least, a professional kitchen is always clean, no matter what. Store the less used essentials appliances in your cabinets and store the seldom-used ones below the counter for easy access.
Keeping these 5 points in mind will help you in giving your kitchen a professional look. A professional-looking kitchen not only makes it an easy-access cooking space but also gives it a modern stylish appeal, for your guests to stare at.
