Bath Design, Geneva Cabinet Company, Remodeling

It is such an honor when the writers at Houzz hand pick our projects to be featured in their editorial ideabooks. Take a look at all of these relaxing baths and be sure to notice the special features we included in bath #9!

Best of the Week: 40 Indulgent, Relaxing Bathtubs

As part of a home remodel by Lowell Custom Homes, Geneva Cabinet Company was selected to design and provide cabinetry for the kitchen, baths and laundry of a lovely French Country style home.

In the master bath we feature an overall crisp white impression with luxury finishes and plenty of storage. The double vanity is created with custom cabinetry from Plato Woodwork, Inc using the Newport style door with concealed soft close hinges in an Arctic White painted finish.

Countertops are Carrera Extra Marble from Levantina in Bensenville, IL. The natural stone countertop and tub deck with a 3cm ogee edge was fabricated by Old World Stone in Huntley, IL. The most flattering illumination is provided by a combination of recessed lighting and shaded sconces mounted to the mirror. The gorgous tile is from Bella Tile & Stone, our neighboring showroom in Lake Geneva, WI.

While the master bath was showcased, you will not want to miss the rest of the cabinetry design in this lovely home.

Plato Woodwork, Inc. cabinetry is featured in the kitchen as well. We contrast the perimeter Dove White painted cabinetry with a walnut island. Difiniti Quartz countertops in the color Viarreggio were selected for the kitchen.

And the laundry room of this home is equally impressive. The same high quality Plato Woodworking products are used for durability in the hardest working room of the home. This absolutely bring beauty and impressive quality to everyday housekeeping and laundry tasks!

Designer Spotlight – Cynthia B Wilson Interior Design- Kitchen Remodel

Designer Spotlight, Kitchen Design, Remodeling

We are always excited when we have a design or remodeling project with Cynthia B Wilson, and this one is especially impressive!

Cynthia achieved a new look for this kitchen with the effective reuse of the existing high quality cabinetry. With an assist from Geneva Cabinet Company designer Natalie Spiniolas and our installation team, this kitchen is updated with the least amount of disruption and expense.

New countertops, modern hardware and a Bella Tile & Stone backsplash all create a fresh new look. New appliances update the function and efficiency while Wilson cleverly converts the pantry to a dry bar and adds a convenient niche above the range.

We think you’ll agree, stunning!

French Country . . . Is It Back?

Designer's Corner, Kitchen Design

In the past several years, kitchen design trends have taken us to a clean, shaker, predominantly white place. Possibly this streamlined trend is a response to the 80’s cabinets of golden oak, white Corian countertops (some with a wood inlay edge) and shiny brass fixtures, along with hunter green and mauve wallpaper in a paisley or floral print! You can picture it can’t you?

Kitchen trends have gone the opposite direction in recent years and some may say gone a little too far in that direction. White, on white with some gray thrown in! There is nothing wrong with white and gray and we are still seeing them as the predominant trend, sometimes paired with a dark or gray stained flooring. Rustic or reclaimed materials are being added to the white/gray mix. Metals, in rustic finishes or highly polished add another textural dimension to the layers. Satin brass accents are mixed with the warmer grays and sometimes blues and black. (Yes, brass is back…but in a satin or unlacquered finish that will patina with age and use). Floating shelves are still popular, replacing wall cabinets in some areas of the kitchen. Ship Lap is still popular, as are large pendant lights over islands.

In recent months, we are getting requests from clients looking for a more “French Country look”.

La Cornue

Which brings things to a whole other level….

French country can incorporate distressed woodwork, mixed patterns, carved furniture type moldings, soft color palette with warm hues, natural materials such as stone, brick and wood. Most French country kitchens incorporate a large island for guests to gather around. Farmhouse or apron front sinks are still common, along with pot fillers. Lantern style lighting is used due to the rustic, organic and hard -working aesthetic. Unique, decorative hoods are common, sometimes in a patina copper, or rustic iron finish. Exposed ceiling beams add to the warmth of the space. Antique mirror materials in cabinet doors or backsplashes are common choices. Natural stone countertops and floors with patterned or textured tiles on backsplashes.

James Martin

We have had recent requests for heavily glazed and distressed finishes, even crackle, and hand scraped painted looks. A more heavily textured, ornamented and layered look than before. More raised panel cabinet doors instead of the flat panel shaker style. More decorative toe kicks, corbels and corner posts.

I had a homeowner request a French country farmhouse look, where they were previously considering a modern farmhouse style. This trend could be just the market we are in? Or are we part of a bigger picture trend to come?

As our team goes to KBIS in February (The industry show for kitchen and bath professionals), we will see what the kitchen and bath industry predicts as the coming trends, and if we are part of an emerging trend, or just witnessing a new niche in our Lake Home market? Never a dull moment in our industry, as trends come and go, we try to stay a step ahead by watching and learning about what is happening in design, not only in our industry, but other sectors as well. Furniture, cars, decorative fabrics and clothing all follow the design Trends in our world.

Is your Bathroom Boring? Don’t Throw in the Towel!

Bath Design, Cabinetry, Storage and Organization, Tips and Ideas

There is only so much you can do with a toilet and sink, but cabinetry will transform the style of your bathroom. Don’t let the design of this room be an afterthought. Browse the cabinetry and design ideas below and choose your favorites to elevate the style of your bath!

Double your pleasure

Storage is an integral part of functional design, and an absolute necessity in the master bath. This Craftsman inspired cabinetry provides ample storage for each partner as well as duplicate lighting and mirrors for no crowding during the morning rush.

Just Shelve It

Open shelving expands your storage without closing in the room with more cabinetry. This has become so popular because it pairs storage with convenience at eye level. Just add bath salts and towel rolls, you’re done!

Making It Modern

A long expanse of concrete-style counter with trough sink and wall faucets will make a modern statement. The deep finish on this floating vanity recedes to expand your visual space and simplifies cleaning day. Bonus opportunity for mood enhancing undercabinet lighting at night.

Overcome Pattern Shyness

Those who say neutral is boring obviously don’t know about blending pattern and texture. This bath keeps the finish and color selections on the light side while injecting pattern luxury with name-dropping (Ann Sacks) wall and floor tile.

Dramatic Reading

It may be the only time of day you have any privacy, so enjoy. The rich eclectic design of this powder room creates a true statement. And the furniture inspired vanity lends a sophisticated feel to the space.

Designed to Fit

Logic and simplicity drove the design of this clever hi-low cabinet. The comfort height of the vanity would have run smack into the window. But a slight modification by our designer allowed us to extend the cabinetry for additional storage.

We also like the efficient u-shaped drawer design in this driftwood inspired vanity. It works around pesky pipes to make the most of space.

Open and Shut Cabinet Case

Closed storage paired with an open bottom shelf offers quick and easy access to towels or supplies that can be stored in small hampers.

Here we do it again in natural wood with the addition of a towel bar.

Black and White and Style All Over

It is a classic color combination that features high contrast and endless attraction throughout all periods of design.

And just for fun, note the way designer Elizabeth Drake played with the black and white concept for the various showers in this home but by Lowell Custom Homes.

Finally in the 1-Hour Project Category . . .

This cabinet idea has gone viral on Houzz since we originally posted it in 2013. You can install a hair styling center or use the door mounted basket for shampoos and soaps. We have even seen it done with command hooks to be removable.

The best design ideas are at your fingertips when you browse through our past blogs and the product section page of our website.

And of course, we are always here to assist!

Back-to-School Tips Keep You Organized All Year

Cabinetry, Storage and Organization, Tips and Ideas

Back-to-School means back to sports, after school activities, and homework. Not to mention packing lunches, finding healthy snacks and planning the occasional sleepover. No time to spare! The key to a successful school year is advanced planning. Here are a few of our most helpful tips.

Let’s Start in the Kitchen

Large clear countertops are essential when it’s time to work on school projects, assemble lunch boxes and complete homework assignments. In this Plato Woodwork designed kitchen everyone can work together under your watchful eye.

Cabinetry with open shelving from Plato Woodwork is ideal for storing reference books, iPads and a basket filled with school supplies.

Dedicate storage space according to use. One pull-out bin for lunch supplies, one for snacks and one to stash extra school supplies will let you easily check inventory and prevent late night runs to the store.

Snack Center

This is all about making your life easier, so placing approved snacks together in an easy to access area will prevent whining during the late afternoon crunch time. It will also help you nudge everyone towards healthy food choices.

This can be as simple as a basket on the counter or as special as this Sub Zero refrigerator drawer. Here you can store beverages and chilled veggies for family self-service. Locate this on the outskirts of your kitchen work triangle for interruption-free meal prep time. For healthy snack ideas click here.

Quiet Time

When quiet study would be more productive, create a customized corner in the den, family room or bedroom. Be sure to include ample counter space, storage and charging outlets.

Start the day off right

The Jack and Jill bath gets an update with this elongated bathroom vanity featuring a generous trough sink. Plenty of counter space and storage equals no waiting. We have more bath ideas for you right here.

Moving into the closet our favorite tip involves lots of storage drawers and bins, they are especially helpful with clothing for kids. A well fitted closet can also eliminate the need for costly bedroom furniture and keeping floor space open for play time. Click here for another crave-worthy closet installation! One last tip, keep it moving in the morning by planning outfits for the week in advance.

Drop Zone & Launch Pad

Heading out the door will be a breeze when the essentials are stored in the “ready” position. Built in lockers, benches and shelving are a streamline way to add storage to your mudroom or laundry. This style is from Shiloh Cabinetry and will save you hours throughout the year. No more last minute scrambling for homework or a missing shoe. Backpacks, jackets and sporting equipment will be stored where you can find them at the beginning and end of each day.

Now there’s time to take a break, maybe watch your favorite cooking show!

Browse through our Inspiration Gallery for even more cabinetry design and storage ideas. Then stop in to our Lake Geneva showroom to touch and feel beautiful cabinetry that will help you love your everyday routine.

Kitchen Remodeling Tips to Get the Kitchen You Want

Before and After, Kitchen Design, Remodeling

There are two types of kitchen people, those who love theirs and those who are under-whelmed every time they pass through. Shouldn’t you adore one of the most important rooms in your home? It’s possible to completely change your disposition with a kitchen remodeling assist from Geneva Cabinet Company, LLC.

We’re sure you’ve heard the advice, “start with a plan”. We like to simplify the planning process into tips that will change your BEFORE into an AFTER you love!

#1 Scrutinize your kitchen layout

What currently works and what just feels dreary? We recommend a comprehensive assessment to start you on the right track before you begin any kitchen remodeling project.

#2 Work with your existing footprint when possible

You’ll notice in the floor plan below that we opened up the space by moving the bathroom to the outside corner. A closer look reveals that the plumbing is actually in the same location. Any time you can renovate a room without disturbing plumbing you are on the side of savings.

#3 Consider traffic patterns and work flow to avoid bottlenecks

Yes, the kitchen work triangle is still relevant. Start by considering the choreography of people who are in the kitchen together. Don’t force everyone to wiggle around obstacles, and each other. Notice that the refrigerator in this AFTER plan has been moved to the outskirts of the work triangle to avoid a crash and possible burn near the cooking surface.

#4 Add storage not just space.

We’re not saying that because we sell cabinetry. It is more cost efficient to maximize storage space without adding square feet. We like to design with tall cabinets that reclaim wasted wall space. They are perfect for storing seasonal and rarely used pieces. For more storage ideas click here.

#5 Configure for Convenience

Doors or drawers? It’s important to know how you will use each area before you choose the type of cabinet storage. Drawers offer natural organization and easy access. Cabinets are ideal for versatility and storing bulky items.

#6 Keep It Open

You will use things more often when stored on open shelving for top-of-mind awareness. Even the interior of your cabinet door can be updated with visible storage for often used condiments.

#7 Divide and Conquer

Move over Maria Kondo, we have organization tools that will definitely change your life. Not only do door and drawer organizers keep you efficient, just opening the cabinet will give you joy!

#7 The Landing Zone

To keep the entire home clutter-free we love the idea of a landing zone, this one is just off of the kitchen. Dedicating a space to collect things like keys and jackets will keep your home tidy.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Schilthelm Builders on this kitchen remodeling project! Cabinetry from Plato Woodwork, Inc. was used in their crisp Arctic White finish on the Artisan style door.

Enjoy this kitchen from every angle right here in a video that walks you through Before, Elevations and After.

New Kitchen Island Transforms the Kitchen

Cabinetry, Countertops, Kitchen Design, Kitchen Island

We can all agree that this is a perfectly nice kitchen. But our homeowners were hoping to elevate their style while increasing storage and adding some much needed island seating.

Enter the talented kitchen and bath designer, Joyce Zuelke, ckd. She created a more functional space with the addition of a redesigned island. There is even a new Pinterest worthy coffee bar for good measure. Along with updates to the lighting and some stunning ceiling detail, this kitchen takes on an entirely new character.

Kitchen Island Update

The original kitchen was created with cabinetry from Bea Industries in Elkhorn, Wi. It had a user-friendly U-shape layout. While stylish and open, our homeowner was looking for an improved kitchen island that would step-up the function of the space.

Cabinetry from Plato Woodwork, Inc. was selected in a deep stain which enhanced the natural wood grain. This rich finish served as a distinct contrast to ground the bright white kitchen.

The island is topped with a lovely Cambria quartz countertop in the Ella pattern from their Marble Collection. Subtle veining reflects the warm island stain while soft white connects to the surrounding cabinetry. It works beautifully with the perimeter of granite countertops.

But it’s not just about having a gorgeous kitchen, the layout must be functional for a kitchen that is comfortable and convenient. Notice the 48 ½” clearance between the island and the stove for safe usage when the oven door is open. The close proximity to the island steam oven keeps the cooking zone tight and functional.

The island also features the secret to great cabinet storage, easy access pull-out shelving. They will keep everyday items visible and within reach to improve daily workflow.

Outdoor Kitchen Design Guide

Kitchen Design, Outdoor Kitchen, Trends

The key difference between an indoor kitchen and an outdoor kitchen is entertainment value. Cooking outdoors turns everyday meal prep into a special occasion. The variety of equipment for outdoor kitchens can take your weekend BBQ to the next level and provide culinary inspiration for entertaining family and friends. Keep our design guidelines in mind and create the perfect outdoor cooking venue for the upcoming summer season.

Choose the location with convenience in mind.

The best location will blur the line between indoor and outdoor space allowing you to move easily without wasted footsteps back and forth. Certainly your outdoor kitchen will be used for entertaining, but remember that often you will want to cook outdoor and bring food indoors to dine. When located close to your indoor kitchen, amenities for each area can be shared. This could add up to a substantial savings on the overall project.

Design for functionality

Outdoor kitchens come in all shapes and sizes to go along with your space and budget. The basic plan should provide an area for food prep, cooking and serving. Before creating your layout, locate the most direct access to gas, electric and water utilities. This will cut down on the additional expense of running services further than necessary.

Material Selections

Choose the materials and finishes carefully with respect to your climate. Cabinetry, countertops and appliances should be maintenance free. Include stainless steel, teak and concrete for long lasting waterproof design. We used Danver Stainless Steel Outdoor Kitchen Cabinetry in the featured projects to achieve high design, exceptional efficiency and lasting durability.

Beyond the Basics

The design options are endless, but once you cover your basic cooking functions it’s time to add even more convenience. A sink in the outdoor kitchen makes clean-up a breeze and storage cabinetry will keep provisions at your fingertips.

Refrigeration is a plus for self-service beverages and holding perishables before cooking.

Specialized Cooking

The latest specialized outdoor kitchens feature artisan pizza ovens, slow-cook grills, smokers, and stoves with infra-red burners. Any outdoor cooking enthusiast will love the restaurant quality options now available.

Protect yourself rain or shine

Protect yourself and your equipment with a little overhead coverage from a canopy or pergola. Nothing will spoil the fun like the typical midwest storm blowing through. Plan ahead so the party doesn’t become waterlogged or wither in the heat. While you’re at it, add air circulation with ceiling fans and outdoor lighting so the good times don’t end at sundown.

Stop by our showroom and take a tour of this complete outdoor kitchen. Designers Stephanie Nelson or Joyce Zuelke, ckd can answer your questions and walk you through the design of an outdoor kitchen where you can expand all of your cooking and entertaining possibilities.

Counter Intelligence – How to Choose the Best Countertop

Countertops, Kitchen Design, Trends

Ahh, the Pros and Cons list. An evaluation technique credited to Benjamin Franklin way back in 1772. While it may have limitations for making decisions of the heart, it certainly comes in handy when comparing your options for countertops. There are many attractive possibilities. So, how do you choose the best countertop for your home? Simple, just review our countertop Pros and Cons list and make your decision with confidence. A word of caution, we are biased in the direction of beautiful!

Countertop Pros and Cons

Quartz Countertops

We begin with Quartz because it is easily the most popular countertop today. It is often referred to as Engineered Quartz or Engineered Stone, and frequently confused with Quartzite (more on that later). The quartz mineral is fused with a combination of polymers, pigments and powdered or ground materials to form this extremely hard surface.

Pros

High Durability

Scratch & Stain Resistant

Bacteria Resistant

Easy to maintain

Non-Pourous ( will not absorb moisture)

Cons

Not as heat tolerant as Granite or Quartzite

Quartzite Countertops

This is the real deal. Quartzite is a naturally-occurring metamorphic stone and each slab will have the unique quality which is inherent to all natural stone surfaces. Quartz crystals formed from sandstone were fused together by nature millions of years ago. The super strong statement material is one that we have come to love and appreciate, especially for kitchen islands.

Pros

High Durability (harder than Granite and Quartz)

Scratch & Stain Resistant

Easy to maintain

Cons

This natural stone must be sealed

Granite Countertops

Granite is extremely durable and rarely scratches or chips. Every slab will have a visual quality characteristic to the region of origin. It is a porous surface that can come pre-sealed or should be sealed yearly.

Pros

High Durability

Heat Resistant

Scratch & Stain Resistant

Easy to maintain

Cons

This natural stone must be sealed and may require resealing

Could be susceptible to staining from oils, citrus and alcohol

Extreme hardness may cause breakage if something is dropped on it

Marble Countertops

The ultimate choice for classic luxury. It is a softer stone known for the rich patina developed over time. Marble stands up to heat but is susceptible to staining. The consistently smooth and cool nature performs perfectly as a pastry surface.

Pros

Will withstand some heat

Resistant to chips and dents

Smoothest surface – Ideal for pastry preparation

Develops a lovely patina

Cons

The porous surface may be susceptible to scratches or staining from acidic liquids

Sealing will need to be maintained

Solid Surface

Here we have your Corian, and other brands that started the solid surface countertop revolution. A wonderful variety of color and pattern is constantly evolving and improving. The molded construction allows it to take on many shapes and accommodate an undermount or integral sink.

Pros

Durable

Resistant to mildew, bacteria and stains

Seamlessly accommodates integral sinks

Easy to maintain

Repairs are possible

Non-Pourous (will not absorb moisture)

Cons

Heat sensitive

Possibility of scratching

Glass Countertops

Glass countertops are a unique combination of function and art for a modern statement in the kitchen or bar area. Custom designs will elevate your style with an open suspended quality. The material can be translucent, colorful or texturized to create special effects like you will see from our friends at Studio L Glassworks

Pros

Moderate Durability

Heat Resistant

Stain Resistent

Resists Bacteria – Extremely safe for foods

Cons

Susceptible to scratching or chiping

Stainless Steel Countertops

Add a Top Chef quality to any kitchen with the visual punch of stainless steel countertops. Super hygienic and durable, these countertops can be integrated with stainless steel sinks and backsplashes for a seamless professional look.

Pros

High durability

Heat Resistant

Germ Resistant

Easy to Maintenance

Will not stain

Cons

Susceptible to scratches-but they can be polished out

Soapstone Countertops

Your science class lab table is reborn! The sophistication of this natural stone is an up-and-coming look for modern and classic styles at home. The color ranges from light to dark gray. Like marble, the developing patina accounts for much of it’s appeal to the organically inclined.

Pros

Heat Resistant

Food Safe

Stain resistant

Develops a stunning patina

Cons

Occasionally require treatment to seal and maintain appearance

Slabs are smaller and may require seaming

Wood Countertops

The allure of natural products is growing in popularity, especially when it comes to wood countertops. We specialize in natural wood countertops from Grothouse Lumber because they excel in beautiful construction with a wide variety of wood species.

Pros

Moderate durability

Natural Luxurious Appearance

Warm Appearance and Tactile Quality

Develops a warm patina

May be re-surfaced to restore appearance

Cons

Low heat resistance

Maintenance is needed

Should be sealed with a food safe sealer

Mixing and matching is an option that we whole-heartily support! What better way to pair your favorite looks with the perfect functional application. This will help you create a style all your own!

Do we have a clear favorite? Actually, no.

Because it all depends on how the countertop will be used and where it will be installed. It is one of the details that we love to address when designing the cabinetry for your home.

It is also the reason we have so many different countertops featured in vignettes around our showroom. Here you can touch and feel the different options in materials to see how they look with various cabinet styles. You will experience first hand the beautiful colors and patterns offered by each of the brands we feature.

The countertops you choose will add the final style statement to your overall design!

Stop in to see us! We have great ideas for your home!
