Ever give any thought to the design of your offices?

It wouldn’t be a bad idea. A little investment in sprucing up your office space can help improve productivity, employee retention and even your brand recognition. A well-designed office can increase productivity by about 20 percent, but most employers don’t consider workplace design a good investment.

We encourage you to reconsider that - invest in your office space and your employees at the same time.

Are you thinking about redesign in your kitchen? May we suggest thinking beyond the basic kitchen design... These days kitchens come in all shapes — from the space-saving galley to wraparound U- or L-shaped kitchens to cook spaces that are curvy, pentagonal, wedge-shaped or completely outside the box.

The Galley kitchen is perfect as a space saving option... What do you think?

Move over marble....here is another alternative to marble countertops that we are LOVING right now...

Wood Countertops...

Warm, timeless and versatile, like furniture, wood countertops can be designed from a variety of different species: walnut, elm, oak, pine, cherry, bamboo and hickory—or even reclaimed or salvaged materials.

Think.. rustically elegant and absolutely gorgeous.....

There's more to countertops than just granite or marble these days! This week and next I am going to offer some suggestions for alternatives that are trending in an amazing way!

Poured Concrete for example....

Poured concrete counters offer strength, style are seemingly timeless in appearance. They offer a natural, organic look for those who are wanting such in their kitchens. These counters need to be sealed well, perhaps more than once, to prevent staining. Poured concrete can be tinted to be any color you wish and can be designed to fit in any space.

Classic and timeless, the black and white kitchen palette will transcend trends forever...The styles may evolve, but the simple appeal of a black-and-white kitchen never dies. It's all about high contrast and sleek lines. Warm rustic hardwood floors are an effective counterpoint to sleek cabinet materials.
