Until not so long ago the option was do the upper cabinets go to the ceiling or do you leave a space above them. Now the upper cabinets can be same colour or a different colour, you can have open shelves, or nothing at all. I think the options are great! As mentioned previously if you are considering renovations and are concerned about the effect on the value of your home and the saleability do contact us and we can provide advise based on current trends and recent sales in your neighbourhood. Remember a very personal kitchen design away from the mainstream can be great but if it`s a personal choice it may not fly well with potential buyers. It`s also important to distinguish a new direction vs a passing fancy which will very quickly date your kitchen to 2004.
