By Inspired Remodels / Kitchen Remodel / Comments Off

When you start gathering custom kitchen remodeling ideas, most people go straight for the big elements. What cabinets will look best? Which countertop material is absolutely essential? Should you pick tile or wood floors?

Inspired Remodels knows that the little things add up quickly to make a big impact. That’s why they suggest remembering little things when you collect ideas for your kitchen remodel.

If you need a few ideas for your next kitchen remodel, take a look at these pictures from custom kitchen remodeling jobs in Orange County.

Hoods Are More Than Functional

Ventilation plays a major part in managing cooking odors, grease, and vapor. But just because a hood has a job doesn’t mean it can’t look great while doing it.

This Coto de Caza kitchen remodel incorporates ventilation in the form of a hood with architectural elements. Notice how the fascia matches the cabinetry? Graceful hood lines contrast nicely with the simplicity of the cabinets. This hood carries the industrial vibe that starts with the stainless steel appliances, cabinet hardware, and faucet. It marries marvelously with the gray and white marble counters too.

Accent Tile Backsplashes

Backsplashes create easy-to-clean surfaces where water and food splatter are common. But that doesn’t mean you must fall back on common tile.

These unique backsplashes make a statement heard loud and clear from every angle.

Subway tile provides the utilitarian area of the backsplash, but the statement tile behind the range does the heavy lifting. Neutral-tone greys and whites contribute just the pop of color the white and black palette needs.

This Laguna Hills kitchen remodel uses tone-on-tone tile to create a true work of wall art. Fanciful fans steal the show while pencil tile creates a faux frame.

Decorative Lighting

Everyone is incorporating an island these days. But Inspired Remodels incorporates decorative lighting so every island looks great and performs beautifully.

Pendant downlights chase away the darkness with a bit of country charm. The metal trim coordinates perfectly with the copper from the pot filler and simple clear glass globes. Who wouldn’t want to linger over breakfast here?

Teardrop lights bring tears of joy to this Orange County homeowner. Asymmetry makes these groupings special. No matchy matchy number of lights in each grouping and each pendant hangs at a different height.

Residential Remodeling Contractors Get Creative with Tile Backsplashes

By Inspired Remodels / Kitchen Remodel / Comments Off

Where some residential remodeling contractors in Orange County see a bare space to paint, Inspired Remodels sees a design opportunity. With so many options available, kitchen backsplashes deserve more than a coat of paint. Backsplashes provide a space to personalize, dramatize, and get creative.

See what these contractors have been up to in Orange County kitchens.

A Study in Contrasts

Who said you can’t have contrasting tile on your backsplash? Tell them they are wrong.

This kitchen clearly reflects the results achieved when solid white subway tile gets a little design assist with contrasting decorative tile.

What’s fabulous about this tile? Everything! To start, each individual tile is a work of art.

And it’s a complete work. So, you get the impact of mosaic design using fewer tiles and less grout.

The soft grey provides a complementary accent that pairs perfectly with the stainless steel finishes on the stove and other kitchen appliances. Notice how the stainless pot filler almost fades away?

At the same time, deep maroon tones playfully pick up the color from the stove knobs.

Talk about remodeling contractors that think of every little detail!

This kitchen would have been light, airy, and run-of-the-mill if the entire backsplash had been white.

But Inspired Remodels added drama and a touch as unique as the homeowner’s fingerprint to this kitchen. All with a little contrasting tile. Amazing!

A Study in Elegance

All while can be boring, But white done right is simply elegant. Jolly trim tile creates the frame while delicately etched tiles paint the picture. And it’s all done against a stunning white subway tile in this absolutely fabulous Laguna Hills kitchen remodel.

But all white isn’t the only way to achieve kitchen elegance.

Inspired Remodels added reflective tile to this backsplash to make the room appear larger and the result was entirely elegant.

As light dances off reflective tiles, it adds elegance with its sparkle and shimmer. Like the perfect piece of jewelry accessorizes an outfit, just the right decorative tile accessorizes the kitchen.

It keeps the dark countertops from overpowering the room and adds a bit of visual interest to an area that is generally boring, the backsplash behind the stovetop.

Now, because this glamour comes from tile, no splatter or spatter can break its stride. You get an easy-to-clean surface that will stay looking great for years. Now, you know you can’t say the same for a painted surface. Tile is simply superior.

Stunning and Chic

Sometimes the best looks happen when you combine two aesthetics into one. In this Orange County kitchen, you get a stunning and chic look. Let’s deconstruct.

Wood floors provide warmth to any room. They create a perfect foil to the cucumber cool cabinetry. Make custom cabinets or semi-custom cabinetry part of your Orange County custom kitchen remodel to maximize your storage and working area.

Shake up Shaker cabinets with recessed panels for a new take on an old favorite.

Speaking of contrast, check out the dark cabinets on the island and the lighter tones on the custom kitchen cabinets. Seems to go against the grain (pun intended) but it works! The white marble countertops complement the light cabinetry and contrast with the dark. No matter which way you go, you go in style. And the recessed panels make a return appearance here.

And how about these chic island cabinets? The herringbone pattern on the flooring adds interest and breaks up the straight lines found on the cabinets and countertops. Pure genius!

Splashing Color on the Backsplash

What makes an Orange County custom kitchen custom? Those personal touches add your signature style and there’s no better way to express yourself than with tile. Check out this Rancho Santa Margarita kitchen.

Neutral subway tiles receive an injection of color and pizazz with colorful decorative tile. Gray decorative tiles behind the stove play off the black countertops over the cabinets and the white countertop over the island. Geometric designs lend a timeless touch of customization to any custom kitchen remodel. And because tile is easy to clean, it’s the perfect material for the backsplash behind the stove area.

In this kitchen, mossy green glass tiles add a subtle splash of color to the otherwise neutral palette. In contrast to the Rancho Santa Margarita tile, which only added color behind the stove, this remodel used colored tile for the entire backsplash. It works because the tones are muted.

In this kitchen, the vibrant tones come from the cabinetry. So what better way to splash color on the backsplash than with geometric tiles in soft, grey tones?

The tile color reflects a keen eye for detail as it pulls together cabinet hardware, appliance finish, and countertop color. Just marvelous!
