The Kitchen Hybrid Effect

Today, hybrids are everywhere, from hybrid automobiles, trucks, and bicycles, to plants, puppies, people, and sports. Indeed, hybrids combine the best of two or three elements.

And with all the powerful combinations of kitchen styles, homeowners are discovering the myriad of reasons why a customized hybrid kitchen may be the perfect solution for their home remodeling project.

Are you wondering how to renovate a kitchen yourself? You can choose a dependable kitchen remodel company in Lehigh Valley, PA, and let the pros bring your vision to life.

Top reasons why a hybrid kitchen makes perfect design sense

But first, what is a hybrid kitchen? It is a design plan that combines two or more cabinetry processes, including refacing and customizing your kitchen cabinets.

Make it personal

A hybrid kitchen remodel may include custom-built cabinets, such as an island or pantry that perfectly match the refaced, existing cabinetry. The result is a highly personalized and transformational kitchen cabinet design.

Remodels like this will improve the aesthetics and function of a kitchen, while also increasing the property value should you decide to sell down the road. The 2022 cost vs. value report says that a minor kitchen remodel will return 74.7% of the investment.

How to hybrid: Big and small kitchen remodel ideas

Our Designers propose solutions for storage problems, addressing issues you didn’t even know you had. Stacked dry goods in the garage or mixed in with dishware do not present a functional and organized kitchen. Designated storage for dry goods, spices, cooking essentials, and other everyday items will unclutter the heart of your home.

Currently, hybrid kitchens are so popular that a majority of the newly remodeled kitchens by Kitchen Magic utilize a hybrid design model. And their designers don’t see the trend slowing down as the formula always suits a custom solution for every customer. Even with the pandemic in the rear-view mirror, many remodeling homeowners still have storage on their wish lists. 

Below are several of the most popular design scenarios for which a homeowner embraces a hybrid design plan.

Pass on the peninsula

Incorporate a custom-crafted kitchen island instead of a peninsula that’s more conducive to gatherings. More homeowners with older homes are bidding adieu to their kitchen peninsula, as the U-shape is a configuration that tends to “trap” people into a particular prep or dining area. Instead, allow your kitchen design team to create a kitchen island for increased workflow. The kitchen island is also a user-friendly layout for dining and social gatherings.

Stock up on storage space
