Just as all kitchen and bath designers have their own "feel", so do Chicago custom cabinet makers. We have been in the design and build business for more than thirty years and, in those three decades, Kitchens & Baths Unlimited has narrowed our vendor options to the very best in the industry. Each one does, indeed, have their own flavor but all of them offer beautiful, high-quality and stylish custom cabinet options that we back with 100% satisfaction guarantees.
Farmhouse sinks are a wonderful choice for any Chicago Kitchen renovation. Previously thought of as a "traditional" kitchen accent, changes in material and style make it possible to add these large, user-friendly sinks in transitional and modern kitchens as well.
If you have ever poked around our Kitchens & Baths Unlimited Kitchen Portfolio, you may have noticed some of our photos are accompanied by hyperlinks that take you to more detailed descriptions if the fixtures and finishes installed in that particular kitchen remodel. By reading these descriptions, you'll notice certain manufacturers and vendors are featured more frequently than others. When it comes to Chicago custom cabinets, Grabill cabinetry is one of the KBU stars.
One of the newest Chicago kitchen design ideas to take off is the idea of adding a desk or a message center to the kitchen area. There are several reasons why this idea makes so much sense; open floor plans have traded "dens" or small office spaces for large open areas, kitchens are often the catch-all and drop-off station in the home (leading to cluttered countertops) and the kitchen space is typically one of the most-well lit and cheerful rooms in the house, making it a pleasant workspace.
Kitchen and bath design ideas move through several phases during a remodel. While idea books and aesthetics are certainly important, there are fundamental aspects of the planning process that are instrumental in producing a kitchen or bathroom remodel that serves your household well for many years into the future.
Kitchen islands have become a staple in Chicago kitchen designs. They work as food prep stations, dine-in eating areas and social centers. They also serve to enhance the stylish aesthetic of your design since their cabinet faces and countertops are a visual focus.
