We know that renovating a kitchen is often a grueling process—trust us, we’ve been there. But it’s worth the effort, because a successful remodel not only adds value to your home but adds pleasure to your life. After all, kitchens are the hub of the home and if you love to cook, a great kitchen is not only life-enhancing but life-changing.
It’s no surprise that homeowners spend more money on a kitchen remodel than on any other home improvement project. But while we at Remodelista believe in the importance of high-quality materials and craftsmanship, as well as superior design and functionality, we’d never insist that everything must be top-of-the-line. Indeed, we’ve always taken a high/low approach to design, mixing favorite pricey things with accessible affordable ones. Basically, it all comes down to spending on the important things and saving where you can. And we’re here to help you figure out the difference.
