The new solid wood slate-gray vanity features a Carrara marble countertop, chrome hardware and concealed adjustable hinges for a smooth look. “We liked the detail of this vanity,” Bero says. “It has an almost furniture quality to it. We wanted something that softly accented the floor and brought some color in.”
2. Drawers, Pullouts and Organizers Alfin is seeing more remodeled kitchens that have few or no upper cabinets. “Kitchens with no uppers are cleaner and sleeker,” she says. “But with fewer cabinets comes less storage.” The designer suggests making the most of lower cabinet storage by adding custom drawers and pullouts with built-in organizers, plate racks and spice racks.
Shoak Creek Addition (1 of 15) Transitional Kitchen, Austin TransitionalAustinWebsite By moving the exterior wall to the patio out two feet, we were able to create an open kitchen/dining/living space in perfect proportion for this mid-century style home. This extra space allowed us to transform the existing galley kitchen into a U-shape with a peninsula bar. The blue base cabinets pack a punch of color, while the white uppers and backsplash create a light and airy space that looks bigger than the actual square footage.
For the floor, the designers chose on-trend luxury vinyl planks that look like wood. The homeowners perused Houzz

7. Choose a water-spot-resistant glass coating for shower dividers. When I remodeled my own bathroom, the shower glass pros let me know about Clarvista, a protective coating for shower glass that resists water spots and is guaranteed for life. I still squeegee after every shower to keep things looking clean and use glass cleaner to give it a thorough cleaning about twice a month, but after eight months there are no signs of water spots.

Strickland Mateljan 5. Use a shower base instead of tiling the floor. Architectural designer Alison Strickland was not a fan of having to clean grout lines in the shower. So she used a shower base for the floor of her shower stall and designed the space around it. The ledge and the base seen here are made from a material called Krion from Porcelanosa.
