Basement Finishing: Unlocking Hidden Potential

Finishing your basement can also significantly increase your property value. Not only do you gain additional living space, but you also create an area that can meet various needs. Whether you desire a playroom for kids or a quiet retreat for work, the possibilities are endless.

Kitchens remain the centerpiece of St. Louis homes, blending style and practicality. Here are the trends we’re seeing:


  • Grand Islands: Large islands with seating are perfect for meal prep, casual dining, or entertaining.


  • Contrasting Cabinetry: Mixing painted and stained finishes or warm wood tones creates a unique, character-filled look.


  • Black and Gold Accents: Matte black cabinet pulls and gold-trimmed fixtures add a modern, sophisticated touch.


  • Full-Height Stone Backsplashes: Extending your backsplash from countertop to ceiling forms a luxurious focal point.


  • Layered Lighting: Combine under-cabinet, can, and accent lighting for enhanced function and ambiance.


  • Smart Electrical Solutions: Hidden outlets in islands and backsplashes keep your kitchen sleek and clutter-free.


Every kitchen should reflect your personal style. Investing in these kitchen improvements not only enhances your home's aesthetic but also boosts its functionality and resale value.
