4 Great Custom Kitchen Features

Custom kitchen features are what make a  home unique, and give it a personal touch. If you are working with a homeowner that wants to add a decorative element to their kitchen, but they aren’t sure where to start, offer the tips below.

• Wooden banquettes. In recent years, the kitchen has become a common hub for the home. No longer is it just for cooking and eating meals, but it may also serve as the common room to do everyday activities. A wooden banquette adds character and a comfortable place to read, eat or work.

• Butcher block islands. A butcher block island is a very practical addition to the kitchen. Not only does it serve as the perfect surface for preparing food, the natural wood material blends seamlessly with other counter top styles.

• Wooden architectural details. If you have already designed countertops and eating areas, no problem. You can still add a custom element to the homeowner’s kitchen with wooden architectural details. Corner posts add a decorative element that won’t require extensive construction.

• Efficient plan. Efficiency is a popular kitchen design trend. Before designing a kitchen remodel, divide the kitchen into zones, asses the homeowner’s needs in each zone and use natural materials such as wood to complete the renovation.
