Gorgeous Ways to use Arches in your Plano Home Remodel

Whether your style is classic, contemporary, farmhouse, Mediterranean, etc. – arches are the perfect way to add character to just about any home. As you are thinking about remodeling your Plano home, take a look at these gorgeous ways to incorporate arches into your next project:

 

Bathrooms

Arches make the perfect focal point for bathtubs in master bathroom remodels. Freestanding tubs look stunning when highlighted with an arch overhead.

 

Room Transitions

Want an open concept Plano home remodel, but also want to preserve the feel of distinct spaces? Try putting an beautiful arch between the rooms to architectural separate, all while leaving the room wide open. This is a very popular option between living spaces and dining spaces.

 

Focal Point

Want to make a wall or transition stand out? Try using an arched wall - made out of a different material - to define the space and add character. We love using brick and stone to create transitions that pop.

 

Doorways

Front doors set the tone for your entire home. What a guest sees as they walk up to your Plano home gives them a reflection of your home’s style. Why not add a “wow” factor with a gorgeous, arched door? These can be used on the exterior or interior of the home.

 

Bookshelves

Think arches only belong in traditional style homes? Think again! Arches can add character throughout any home remodel, and another great way to use them – even if your style is more casual in nature – is to incorporate them into bookshelves. It’s a beautiful look for living rooms or home offices.

 

Windows

1990s arched windows are out, but full-length, full panel arched windows are very much in. Not only do they add a modern flare, but they also allow tons of natural light into your home.

4 Kid-Friendly Kitchen Remodeling Ideas - Pedigo Construction

For most families, the kitchen is the heart of the home. 50 years ago, a kitchen might only need to be functional for a wife and mother, as most kitchens were set apart from the living spaces and solely used for prep. Not so today. Kids and families all gather in the kitchen together, so why not make it kid-friendly? When doing a kitchen remodel in Plano, consider these kid-friendly remodeling ideas:

 

Refrigerator Drawers

Built-in refrigerator drawers are perfect for little hands looking for snacks or cold drinks. No longer should you think of your refrigerator as the sole place to keep things cold in the kitchen. Refrigerator drawers can be placed anywhere in the kitchen for food prep storage or easy assess for even the smallest family members.

Deep Storage Drawers

When children are involved, you may want to rethink the way you store your dishes. Commonly used dishes and silverware can be stored in deep storage drawers vs. upper cabinets for children to assess. And bonus – place the drawer next to the dishwasher and teach your child to responsibly unload the dishwasher and put dishes away.

 

Large Island

As the hub of the home, the kitchen tends to be the place for all family members to gather. You may want your children in the kitchen with you, but you may not want them under-foot when preparing dinner. Add a large island into your Plano kitchen remodel, perfect for children to do homework, eat a quick snack, or just visit. If done right, not only will it be functional, but a statement piece in your home.

Easy-to-Clean Surfaces

When children are involved, easy of use is top priority, and this is especially true of high traffic countertops. While that gorgeous Carrera marble may be tempting, opt for a quartz look-alike. Not only is quartz more cost effective, but it’s more durable and stain resistant than marble and granite, and more shock absorbent too.
