5 Tips when designing a real luxury kitchen

If you are a homeowner who loves to cook and prepare food, you might want to have a very nice luxury kitchen with all the storage and amenities you need. If you are designing, building, or remodeling a luxury kitchen here are some suggestions you may want to consider:

Know the difference between cabinets with overlay door and insert door

The higher end option for a luxury kitchen are framed cabinets with inset doors while the more common cabinets seen on the market are the ones with overlay doors. A lot of homeowners are not familiar with the difference.

Get a high-end refrigeration unit

A lot of luxury homeowners want to conceal the refrigerator behind cabinet panels to look just like an armoire or a luxury furniture.

Conceal counter top appliances

High end kitchens do not allow the possibility of clutter. You may want to ask your designer to have space so you can conceal appliances like toasters, coffee makers, and blenders. You can have a walk in pantry or have a big cabinet with pocket doors with internal tops which may have electric outlets. So concealment comes well with easy access.

Mixed counter top materials

Luxury kitchens will have a good amount of space so counter tops just using a single slab of granite or marble will look cold. You can use the best stone you want for the counters on the side while using a good wood for the island. This approach breaks the coldness of the area.

Do not use stainless panel for your dishwasher

Designers will agree that the dishwasher is not a pretty item in the kitchen so if even if you want all appliances to have that stainless steel touch, the dishwasher will not get any value out of it. The better approach will be to get a dishwasher which is fully integrated.

Lamborghini’s Latest Christmas Gift: Shopping Already?

Lamborghini’s Latest Christmas GiftChristmas is right around the corner folks and I have to say that this year is filled with luxury.  Lamborghini has just released their Christmas collection and I have to say that I have been waiting for this particular collection to be released.  This is a limited edition gift box that includes a slew of things … that look awesome.

For example, the Lamborghini actually has limited edition gift-boxed candles and as well as some ornaments that were both inspired by the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550-2 Valentino Balboni.  The color scheme for these little things is blue and white and really … it looks awesome.

However, if you are not a blue and white fan, they have tons of other colors (okay – eight colors) and if you don’t want this gift set, tons of winter clothing, t-shirts and calendars are in the works.

Karim Rashid Takes HUGO to the Next Level

hugo-man-exclusive-limited-editionFirst thing’s first: I just have to say, I absolutely love the smell of Hugo colognes. A much despised ex boyfriend of mine used to wear the original scent, and I love the smell so much that not even my loathing for him has changed that — how’s that for devotion?

Point being, I am extremely excited about the HUGO Man Exclusive, a limited edition that has the added touch of having its bottle and packaging designed by the innovative designer, Karim Rashid. HUGO Man Exclusive Limited Edition perfume is sure to be a best seller — and it will likely be a fast seller as well, because there are only going to be a thousand bottles of it available.

They will be available in a few days, on October 15. So, you better shop fast and start sniffing the bottles out now, because you will only be able to get them in one hundred outlets.
