When remodeling the kitchen, most homeowners often think about practical details like the layout and appliances. Prioritize adding character into the mix, as it helps effortlessly transform your space. The ideal kitchen should reflect your style. A character kitchen is a great way to achieve that.
To create a kitchen with character, you need a professional contractor who can make your vision a reality. Instead of searching online for a “kitchen remodeler near me,” turn to the pros at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Southern Rhode Island to help you design one. Check out these tips.
Introduce a Piece of Artwork
Introducing a piece of beautiful artwork is a sure way to add character to your kitchen. Whether you hang up a classical painting or a catchy poster, artwork can transform your functional kitchen into a comfortable and casual space. If you choose to place your artwork directly above the stove, don’t forget to add a protective covering and a durable frame that can withstand moisture.
Incorporate Textured Surfaces
To make your kitchen stand out, incorporate different materials like textured surfaces. For instance, a metal cabinet handle with an aged finish such as copper or brass gives your kitchen a timeless and classical look. Wooden countertops are another great solution to give your kitchen a characterful look. If you don’t want your work surfaces in wood, you can use a butcher’s block or bar stools to emphasize wooden accents. If you’re not sure which is right for you, we can help.

Show off Big Impact Pieces
Certain elements can single-handedly transform the overall feel of your kitchen. As such, consider showing off big impact pieces such as a range-style cooker or some freestanding furniture. A well-designed sink is another great feature to bring character into your kitchen design. Thanks to its industrial look and the way it sits with surrounding cabinets, a butler sink can always catch your eye. Copper faucets or designs in black or brass can also bring a personal feel to your kitchen.
Choose the Right Lighting
Kitchen lighting is not only for cooking and meal prepping but also for adding personality and character to the space. The right lighting has a major impact on the atmosphere and looks of the room, after all. Depending on your preferences, you can install bold, dramatic pendant lighting or subtle, romantic sconces. Unlike most rooms in your house, however, a single lighting fixture will not satisfy all your kitchen activities. For this reason, you need various types of lighting with different brightness and shades.
