And even when it\u2019s not mealtime, the kitchen often becomes a gathering place for snacking, doing homework and spending time together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does your current kitchen live up to your expectations and meet your needs? If not, it\u2019s time for a few upgrades. For inspiration, take a look at these trending renovation and remodeling projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Mix open shelving with functional hidden storage<\/span>.<\/strong> Open shelving is big these days, but it\u2019s not the best option for everyone. Mixing open shelves with hidden storage often makes more sense (especially if you have a lot of stuff to store). For the best of both worlds, consider pull-out drawers beneath your cabinets, revolving trays inside the closed-off areas, and tables with built-in storage compartments.<br \/><\/li><li><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Opt for bold colors on cabinets.<\/span><\/strong> White kitchens had their moment, but bolder hues are becoming more popular now. You\u2019ll probably start seeing more greens, purples and blues \u00e2\u20ac\u201d brighter and deeper tones that really catch the eye and show off some personality.<br \/><\/li><li><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Choose unique flooring.<\/span><\/strong> While sleek stone and tile will always be in, today\u2019s designers are also getting creative with unique flooring choices. They\u2019re mixing up light and dark woods, opting for herringbone patterns, and using reclaimed wood to add character.<br \/><\/li><li><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Go multipurpose.<\/span><\/strong> The kitchen isn\u2019t just for eating and cooking. For many, it\u2019s where we work remotely, log into virtual schooling, or even get our exercise in. Finding ways to make your kitchen more functional and useful to all family members is a trend that\u2019s sure to stick around.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Need more help deciding on value-building renovations?
