Kitchen cabinet design provides you with a lot of options so that you can design a superb kitchen that is one of a kind.
Have you noticed that whenever you enter someone’s kitchen, the first thing that you notice are the kitchen cabinets? Or maybe you notice the cabinets and the kitchen counter tops as a whole.
The cabinets and the kitchen cabinet plans play an important role in the overall appeal of your kitchen.
There are so many kitchen cabinet styles to choose from and you can quickly narrow your choices down based simply on what you like.
You and/or your designer will bring your kitchen cabinet design together with the best choices to fit with your kitchen interior design.
One of your first choices is whether you want frameless kitchen cabinets or those that have a face frame. Frameless and face frame cabinets do have a different look to them.
The frameless cabinets have doors and drawers close together for a more sleek look while face frame cabinets show more of the stiles and rails that are behind the door and drawers.
Most people aren’t concerned about which they choose because they both look great. It’s a matter of what looks best to you and the style that you want.
The face frame cabinets are best suited for a classic look while the frameless go better with a modern style.
Not all cabinet makers produce frameless cabinets. If you want a frameless type for a contemporary kitchen design then the manufacturers are limited.
If the cabinet maker of the cabinets that you like only make a face frame cabinet, you may have an option to think about. Usually cabinet makers offer their cabinets in a “standard overly” as shown in the photo to the left.
They will often have a “full overly” as shown in the photo to the right for an increased price.
The full overly shows less of the stiles and rails behind doors and drawers and has larger doors and drawers as you can see.
This will give you a very similar appearance to the frameless cabinet if you like that look.
