Granite Tile Countertops

Description

Filled with more than 500 inspiring photos, the Kitchen & Bath Idea Book is the ultimate source of design ideas for creating the kitchen and bathroom of your dreams. Today’s leading designers and architects offer inspiration for everything from cabinets and countertops to faucets and fixtures, lighting and flooring, and storage and built-ins. The kitchen is the true heart of the home, and homeowners spend a lot of time and money to make older kitchens less utilitarian and more creative, a place where people can congregate as well as cook and enjoy good food. This book helps you figure out what you really want and how to get it, whether it’s a contemporary, brushed-stainless workroom worthy of an upscale restaurant; a rustic, farmhouse-style great room with wood flooring and a couch; or an elegant, streamlined space for a small city apartment. For every style, for every budget, it's all here: new appliance technology and cabinetry, fixtures and faucets, doors and counter materials, sinks, pulls, built-ins, and bookcases. Using this idea book, you can create the kitchen of your dreams - regardless of style or budget. The bathroom today is getting more attention than ever for its value as a personal retreat and resale enhancer. Gone are the days of garish tile and fuzzy toilet seat covers. Now bathrooms are as much about taste and style as the rest of the house. Homeowners want bathrooms to be both beautiful and functional, and manufacturers have responded with many more choices in materials and fixtures. This book covers them all, with ideas for tiny half-baths, medium-size his-and-hers, and large luxurious home spas. Specifics on ventilation, waterproofing, faucets, showers, tubs, and more give you the knowledge to create a bathroom with all your favorite features. Two books in one, Kitchen and Bathroom Idea Book gives homeowners hundreds of ideas on how to make the hardest-working rooms in the house the most beautiful.

Description

Whether you're planning a full-scale remodel or simply upgrading and replacing cabinets or appliances, making decisions on how to renovate your kitchen can become a nightmare. And, once you begin, the problems seem to multiply daily: The workmen show up three months late, the doors on the cabinets hang at an unintentional tilt, and though you love that stone countertop, you find yourself working in the shadows because no one really thought about proper lighting. Help is on the way.Kitchen Redos will enable you to design kitchen layouts that let you move with ease, islands that do double duty as work and eating centers, cabinetry that looks beautiful and provides maximum, innovative storage, surfaces that shine with easy care and last a lifetime, and much, much more. Practical, inspiring, and hardworking, Kitchen Redos anticipates and instructs you on all the real-life issues that arise when designing and developing your dream kitchen.

A picture book this is not. Jan Weimer has created a rigorous tool and reference for anyone embarking upon a kitchen remodel--a tool to provoke inspiration, provide information, and produce invention. She tells the reader, "I believe hassles are avoidable if you do your homework, stay on top of the job and sever relationships as soon as you see they're not working." In the spirit of her very own words, Weimer then proceeds to convey the knowledge and foresight necessary to carry out such successful remodeling prerequisites, including everything from finding a designer to comparing cabinets, from lighting issues to dishwashers, and from icemakers to a sample contractor's contract. Again, it is not a glossy collection of other success stories, but rather a vehicle for creating your own.
