Kitchen and Bath Upgrades for 2023

Looking for kitchen and bath design ideas for the new year?

These high-use areas of your home may need a makeover! Switching out countertops, adding light fixtures, and replacing old appliances are sure to be the top of many homeowners’ lists this year.

Here are some upgrades you can make:

1. Lighter and brighter spaces: Huge windows, light hues, and reflective materials will boost the glow in your kitchen or bathroom. 
2. Family focus: Cozy spaces with enough seating for your family are more important than ever in 2023. Large kitchen islands double as a workstation, homework zone, or even for family game night allow you to spend more time with everyone you love!

Your custom design + build experts!

The hardest space to re-envision is usually the one you live in -- even for professional designers! Sometimes clients begin the design conversation by telling us, “I know there’s nothing you can do about this layout…” We prefer to begin with the assumption that there’s not much we can’t do. 

Our local know-how ensures a smooth process. Although Ann Arbor is our home, we’ve been working with building officials in jurisdictions from Jackson to Livonia since 1989. You can be confident that your project will be designed right the first time and will meet local requirements.

Eco-Friendly Home Renovation Trends for 2023

Want to go green on your next home renovation project?

As homeowners look to cut costs and make homes more eco-friendly, homeowners will look for opportunities to install solar panels, add insulation, and low-flush toilets.

Here are more ideas for eco-friendly upgrades:

1. Composite decking: Often made from a combo of wood waste and recycled plastic, this type of decking is strong, long-lasting, and won’t warp.
2. Use local materials: Try bamboo for flooring or countertops, and even concrete. Because these readily-available materials are sourced locally, they don’t have to travel on multiple tractor-trailers and save fuel. 
3. Solar energy: Solar panels can be expensive initially, but when you start using the energy they produce, you’ll save money in the long run.
4. Used recycled items: Whether it’s furniture, art, or anything else, try to buy something recycled or reclaimed rather than brand new. The fewer new things you buy, less ends up in a landfill.
