Combining classic looks with contemporary styles
Classic Kitchens & Interiors of Hyannis has been helping homeowners through the design process since 1979. Whether it’s a single cabinet replacement, or an entire kitchen or bath, Classic Kitchens’ design team works with homeowners to help them create the kitchens of their dreams.
Rebecca Brown, the company’s design manager, offers her expertise to help determine the perfect design to fit any taste. “The styles today are leading toward more contemporary,” says Brown. “Homeowners here on the Cape will always like that classic Cape Cod design, with marble and subway tiles for the kitchen and bath, but the trend seems to be leading toward contemporary, with some people getting more daring with color.”
In its 4,500 square foot showroom in Hyannis, Classic Kitchens offers quartz countertops, a more contemporary option that still has elements of traditional style. “Quartz countertops are increasing in popularity,” Brown says. “Most clients are choosing quartz to mimic the look of marble and limit the maintenance.”
In the world of tile, Brown says customers have been opting for glass, with more and more homeowners choosing an iridescent, mother of pearl look, for both the kitchen and bath as accents. “You see the backsplash before you see the countertops,” says Brown, adding that this is a factor that should be considered when designing a kitchen. For bathrooms, she says rain showers and multiple showerheads are popular, as are walk-in showers without thresholds and rectangular bathroom sinks.
