Commandment III:
You shall not forget the kitchen as a primary entertaining area.
Your kitchen is the heart of your home. The party may start in another room but eventually the kitchen ends up as the main attraction. The Kitchen is the heart of every home and as the nucleus; it should have certain design features to assist you with harmonized systematic entertaining. The entertainer and gourmet in you have warranted a Women-Centric Kitchen.
Women-Centric Kitchen Design Ideas
1. Every good working kitchen should be open to the eating areas and the family room/great room. If this is accomplished you can entertain more effectively.
- One of the first things you should consider is removing walls to open up the space. We could take out a wall between the kitchen and family room providing you with space that is more open. Your guests or family will always be connected with you while celebrating, adding to the togetherness feeling. In addition, removing a wall and adding a bay window would provide more square footage.

- An architecturally designed island will allow you to enjoy views of an open kitchen nook, great room or fireplace and it strikes a comfortable balance between the various needs of the household. This island will serve as a food prep area, snack area or buffet area to serve all your guests and family.

- On a budget? We can provide you with an Extreme Makeover Kitchen that is budget friendly by Revamping your Existing Cabinets. Between cooking, dining, snacking and just hanging out, a kitchen probably sees more activity than any other room in a typical home. Unfortunately, all of that activity takes a toll on a kitchen’s appearance – especially on the cabinets, which become .dingy with use and age. So it’s not surprising that every year, millions of homeowners look around their kitchen and say the same thing: “We have to do something about these cabinets.”

- Every kitchen needs a walk-in pantry. Your kitchen may be outfitted with standard cabinets and not equipped for storage. We can provide your kitchen with the benefit of a pantry addition -- if only to corral the supersize packages of paper towels, pasta, and snacks many of us buy at warehouse stores. That is why your Kitchen Remodel needs to have the added benefit of a walk-in pantry, designed by us.

- What about a small pocket office off the kitchen? This isn't your typical home office, but it is a typical location where one is a good idea. You can look up a recipe, help your children with their homework or pay bills here. This is a place for your calendar, office needs and computer. A place where you can work or your children and still be close to your family. The kitchen is the hub of the house, and I know that when I'm cooking, I always have the TV on, music playing on my laptop, and my cell phone handy. It's just the way life is now—we're always "connected." So, rather than having all of these devices scattered about, creating an office nook for all your gadgets and the cords that charge them is a great idea.

- We can provide you with a Beverage Center/Coffee Bar design in or near your kitchen area. A Beverage Center/ Coffee Bar are places to store your entire beverage needs. It is placed near the kitchen to conveniently store soda, beer, wine and/or water. This way your drinks are more accessible and this will reduce the need to visit the refrigerator. Also, consider an area for a coffee or tea maker.
