How To Start a Remodel Project With Custom Painted Cabinets

When you're planning to remodel your kitchen, the number of choices you need to make just about cabinetry may feel overwhelming. From custom painted cabinets to floating shelves, your decisions can make the difference between an inviting kitchen and an uncomfortable space that doesn't fit your style. Start your kitchen remodel project right with attention to the design of your home and your personal aesthetic.


Why Select Custom Painted Cabinets?

Custom cabinets are an excellent choice for homeowners who want special features like a coffee bar or a corner cabinet with a lazy Susan. Custom painted cabinets offer a more comprehensive range of color and design choices. Professional cabinet-makers and suppliers can help you select the best combinations of styles and colors for your kitchen.


What Custom Painted Cabinets Should You Choose for Your Project?

As with any home remodel project, your first task is to visualize your kitchen wholly finished in the style you prefer. If you find it difficult to envision the finished product, search online for visualization tools to get a general sense of the overall picture. If you're uncertain about your overall aesthetic, visit various home design websites for inspiration.

Rustic or Country Kitchens

Country or rustic-style kitchen cabinets offer clean, uncomplicated lines without fussiness or extra decorations. You can layer your own personality on top of the simple designs. Farmhouse kitchens are more rugged in appearance, often featuring unpainted or clear-coated wood cabinet doors.

On the other hand, cottage kitchens may include custom painted cabinet doors in simple styles such as unornamented Shaker or painted flat-front doors. Highlight the rustic feel with iron or antiqued bronze handles and drawer pulls.

Modern Kitchens

Although a contemporary style, modern-style cabinet doors bring simplicity and elegance to both modern and period homes. Best suited for kitchens with lots of light, custom painted cabinets add depth and color to minimalist styles. Create built-in storage spaces and raise cabinets to the ceiling to increase the sense of airiness and calm.

In these kitchens, more light is better, so opt for multi-directional recessed lighting. Add visual interest with a dramatic chandelier and a few unique pieces to draw the eye and enliven the space.

Open Plan Kitchens

A freestanding kitchen is another option if you prefer more freedom in your design and feel confident making numerous choices. This approach requires you to select and purchase custom cabinets and worktops from a professional cabinetry company. Custom cabinets enhance the cohesiveness of your design.

While some manufacturers sell fitted kitchen furniture that appears freestanding, you may struggle to achieve the plan you have in mind. A better option is to combine custom painted cabinets with one-off pieces for a coherent design.
