Do you ever find yourself wishing that someone would just tell you the right choice for every finish in your remodel? Between the tile, the fixtures, and the endless cabinet options, the sheer volume of decisions is EXHAUSTING.
Now you probably know me as the person who ALWAYS has options for you to consider. I like to offer alternatives, pros and cons, and let people tell ME what possibilites are landing best for them.
Options for the optimal layout. Options for tile color. Options for replacing or keeping your original windows. There’s a silver lining for every cloud and an advantage for every starting situation as I approach a remodel.
I tell my clients and students that there isn’t one “right” answer all.the.time.
Straight talk, tho?Â
I do have opinions.  Lots of them.
My friends and family know me as someone who will judge a poorly designed building harshly AND at length. Â
Let’s focus on the positive here, though.
Just for today, I’m putting aside the “it depends” caveats and giving you my unvarnished hot takes on THE CORRECT choices for a mid-century kitchen update.
