- Creating a cohesive look in your kitchen can be achieved by using a bold color accent only on the island while keeping the rest of the cabinetry in a consistent, warm tone.
- When considering picture lights for a gallery wall, ensure the artwork is truly special and that the lights will enhance rather than detract from the visual appeal of the images.
- Opting for tile flooring in kitchens and bathrooms is preferable to wood floors due to durability and better contrast with wood cabinetry.
