Outdoor Kitchen Perks

The kitchen is the command center for home activity, so when summer rolls around make the swap to an outdoor kitchen for a refreshing change.  This upgrade will improve your attitude, and potentially your home’s value.

Increase Living Space

Often backyards don’t live up to their full potential.  Create outdoor rooms that will bring dormant property to life.  When planning, place the outdoor kitchen in an area that is easy to access from indoors.  For more tips see our Outdoor Kitchen Guide.

Fluid Space for Entertaining

Social events are more appealing when guests can flow between spaces.  An event that begins indoors suddenly becomes more relaxed as guests follow the sun.  Adding an outdoor gathering space expands your entertainment opportunities for more fun with family and friends.

Increase Healthy Outdoor Time

Spending time outdoors improves health and well-being.  Take everyday activities alfresco to boost your energy along with many other proven health benefits.

Energy Saving

Cooking outdoors will keep the heat out of the kitchen on a steamy summer day.  Save on air conditioning while the grill multitasks for meal preparation.  Plus, grilled food has its own deliciously unique flavor!

While the weather is pleasant, take advantage of every day with an outdoor kitchen surrounded with comfortable seating.  Adding a fireplace or heater will extend your seasons from the beginning of spring through the early days of winter.

Home Renovations Beyond Cabinetry

,

A space may be charming, but not living up to its full potential.  That’s when the experts at Geneva Cabinets Company work their magic.  Your home renovations will go beyond cabinetry when you look to Geneva Cabinets for a one-stop-shopping experience.

Before and after home renovations by Geneva Cabinet Company

It’s about more than replacing cabinetry.  Geneva Cabinets wants you to have an entire space that is beautiful and flows seamlessly from room to room.  New kitchen cabinets certainly improved the outlook for this kitchen, while our designers take it a step further reimagining the entire home.

 

Address the Space

When it comes to this home’s renovation, relocating the bath was a key decision.

Once the kitchen was open and spacious, the rest of the home was ready for a refresh.  This included lifting the ceiling, new windows, flooring, and lighting.    The kitchen roofline was raised into a gable adding visual space along with a series of sunny skylights.

New wood flooring extents throughout the home along with special ceiling treatments, updated woodworking, and lighting.

The cabinetry is custom from Plato Woodwork Inc.   Perimeter cabinetry is painted in timeless Essential White with an island in Blue Nose from Benjamin Moore .  Hardware from Schaub in Satin Brass is a nod to Lake Geneva’s nautical perspective.

In addition to being a fabulous workspace, this island is a natural gathering point with undercounted refrigerator, microwave drawer and plenty of storage.  The exaggerated thickness in the island’s Cambria countertop is our latest obsession.  It is such a modern statement that exudes luxury.

Beyond the Kitchen

A impressive part of this home renovation is the new flooring flowing into the living room, where molding details and hearth also receive an upgrade.

Guest Bedroom and Bath

Entry Hall

Upgrading the entry as part of the home renovation offers visitors a preview of the new sunny disposition.

Sometimes it’s the little things that make you smile. A guest bedroom doesn’t really need a dedicated closet, so some clever shared storage is included.  Contents are accessible from the entry hall or the guest room!

Attention to Detail

As with every kitchen and bath installation, the team at Geneva Cabinet attends to the little details.  The new wood floor deserves a perfectly set in air vent that blends visually without obstruction to the path of circulation.

For a seamless home renovation experience, start in our Lake Geneva showroom.  It’s bursting with inspirational product displays and a friendly team to guide you from design to installation.

Kitchen Design Secrets Revealed

,

A kitchen is never just about cooking.  Yet when a love for cooking combines with the great desire for comfort, a fresh kitchen concept is born. The kitchen is naturally the heart of any home.  Adding the seamless integration of lifestyle and architecture is the secret to creating an engaging space.

Before and After

A new design brings opportunities for greatness.  The spacious room with beautiful views was a good start.  However a central fireplace limited the natural flow of activity.  Removing the fireplace and borrowing space from the mudroom was a game changer.  Essential to the new plan is an inviting island with generous space for storage, meal prep, gatherings and dining.

Next Best Thing to a Sofa

Centerstage a supersized island-banquette offers true comfort.  Dining options include counter height seating on two sides as well as space to stretch out on upholstered lounge seating constructed by V Upholstery

Business in the Back

While the exposed side of the kitchen is all about comfort,  the interior of the island faces a run of cabinetry and cook space that is all business.  From the luxury range to double dishwashers, this prep area will accommodate team cooking efforts with ease.

The homeowner’s existing John Boos & Co butcher block table finds a built-in position for the serious chef business of cutting and chopping.  Throughout this kitchen we feature Shiloh Cabinetry in contrasting stain and painted finishes.

Hidden Secrets Revealed

But some of the best features in this kitchen are cleverly disguised.  Gliding doors are concealed within the full height Cambria backsplash constructed by Old World Stone where the homeowner can neatly collect a secret stash of spices.

And integrated into the countertop are “Chameleon” pop up outlets from S-Box. You only see them when you need them.

Accessible Storage for Clutter Free Space

In keeping with the focus on the view, this kitchen features countless storage options easy to access to help the space remain clutter-free throughout the day.  Countertop appliances are nesting together behind a cabinet door with glide up lift system for added convenience.

A coffee and snack bar is well situated in a special niche between the living room and kitchen for morning or mid day pick-me-ups.
