Author: “The kitchen is one of the new American status symbols, and cabinets set what will be the theme of the kitchen and sometimes the overall look of the home,” said Connie Edwards, director of design for American Woodmark Corp. and author of the book “Beautiful Built- ins: Plans for Designing with Stock Cabinets.”
The demand for kitchen cabinetry in both new construction and remodeling fueled sales off.
However, kitchens are one of the rooms in the house that we can’t avoid and will inevitably end up spending a lot of time in. For this reason when looking around a flat or house, many people will consider the kitchen to be one of the major selling points or detracting points; particularly if they usually cook. In some cases a pokey kitchen can be instrumental in influencing the decision to leave in the first place. For this reason a kitchen renovation can be one of the surest ways to increase your chances of selling and to increase your property’s value. If you’re going to be spending the time and money on a redesign however then you’ll want to make sure you make it back in the sale, so it’s highly important that you design the new layout well and make a positive impact on potential buyers.
The first thing to decide when planning a kitchen renovation is what the basic layout of the appliances and kitchen cabinets will look like. For this there are essentially four options: the L-shape, the U-shape, the corridor layout and the island layout. These names reflect the arrangement of the cabinets and are fairly self explanatory.
