Kitchens Fit for the Home Chef

The experience of cooking at home is already sweet, let alone doing it in the high-end, classy kitchen of your dreams. Every home chef's ultimate desire is to cook in a beautiful kitchen where they can create delicious meals and entertain their guests. Your kitchen can have a unique atmosphere and aesthetic. To have the best finishes in your kitchen, custom home designers can help you. However, there are several finishing ideas for any home chef looking to upgrade their space and remodel their kitchen.

Kitchen Features to Consider

The Miracle of Countertops

Countertops play an essential role in high-end kitchens. The countertops' materials, features, and design style make your kitchen stand out. Stone elements such as granite, quartz/marble, and soapstone are the most widespread choices for classy countertops in a kitchen. In addition, stone countertops are clean and classic, pairing well with other materials in the kitchen.

Stone countertops present their beauty whether your kitchen design is contemporary or traditional. Modern and cutting-edge kitchens can be matched with glass, stainless steel, or concrete countertop materials. These materials also pair well with stainless appliances and are easily kept clean. In addition, Butcher block, travertine tile, and recycled countertops are high-end material options for both modern and traditional-style kitchens.

Luxury Appliances

Adding luxury appliances to your kitchen works well with other custom finishes. Choose appliances from the most famous luxury brands in the market, including Viking, Thermador, Miele, La Cornue, Gaggenau, and Sub-Zero/Wolf. More affordable brands that can still optimize your kitchen design include LG, KitchenAid, Samsung, Conclusion, Bosch Benchmark, and Jenn-Air.

Luxury appliances can upgrade your high-end kitchen to the next level and last many years. The truth is that no classy kitchen design is complete without the presence of sleek, gorgeous appliances.

Exquisite Cabinets

However you design your kitchen, cabinets are a significant component of the room. If you own a traditionally styled home, you may use traditional cabinets with a high-end gloss finish. Another option, using raised panel cabinets in a popular color, is a great option to take your older kitchen to the next level.

On the other hand, if your kitchen style is modern or contemporary, a good option is steel cabinets or ones with lacquered shiny and sleek panels. These materials are second to none for a seamless look and style.

Numerous Electrical Outlets

A high-end kitchen design must come with a plethora of electrical outlets. Home chefs are aware of the issues faced if there are not enough outlets in your kitchen for modern appliances. So install plenty of outlets in your kitchen, but keep accessibility in mind. For example, you can hide outlets in the kitchen island, inside cabinets, and your pantry to keep your counters clean while recharging gadgets or running your appliances.
