Behind The Scenes

On A Photo Shoot

Last week, I went out on a photo shoot at a beautiful home in Walnut Cove, near Asheville, NC. We got so carried away with snapping pictures in the kitchen that I forgot to get a few with my iPhone, which I really like to do. I just can’t explain how much fun taking pictures can be when the lighting is just right. It saves us so much time during the processing phase because, after all, we are just amateurs.

Here is a close-up of the desk we did at Walker Woodworking. Yes, this finish is very detailed and requires precise attention to get it just right, but overall, it adds character to the desk.

This area was small and difficult to photograph. I was able to get a close-up with my iPhone – this antiqued glass is fantastic. It has gold and burnt orange coloring that looks great with the black cabinets.

Here’s a sneak peek of the kitchen – we will have these photos added to our website very soon.  You will be able to view the entire project and all the unique details our custom cabinetry has to offer.

It’s always a treat for us to get out of the office and see the final product of our cabinets in the setting of a beautifully furnished home.  We get to actually enjoy time with the homeowner in their environment, rather than in our office, always working and discussing details.

Coffee is a staple ingredient in the mornings for most people. We love the freshly brewed scent as we begin our day and rely on the boost it gives us to get the last of the sand out of our eyes and add a little bounce to our step.

While the kitchen may be the heart of the home, the bathroom is a place of relaxation—and the bathroom cabinet plays a key role in creating that peaceful retreat.

New materials are being paired together to create something unique and wonderful. One of these new combinations is metal and wood, specifically metal cabinet doors. While not the typical choice for kitchen cabinet design, this choice adds a new dimension to the overall look and feel of the kitchen.

Cabinet design encompasses many elements to create the perfect kitchen, including the cabinet door style, which offers choices such as inset, overlay, or even completely custom.

More and more homeowners are interested in using eco-friendly products and materials and designing their homes to minimize their environmental impact. This has led to a rise in zero waste kitchen concepts, with designers looking to meet their clients’ requests in a way that delivers a functional, environmentally friendly, yet stylish kitchen.
