## [Adding Farmhouse Style to Your Home](https://info.neals.com/adding-farmhouse-style-to-your-home)

The term "[farmhouse style](https://info.neals.com/homeowners-guide-to-kitchen-remodeling)" is a loose phrase that encompasses a collection of design principles rather than a strict list of must-haves. A handful of distinctive styles fall under the umbrella of "farmhouse", so it's easy to either follow one of those styles specifically or to grab components of several and still have your project result in a cohesive farmhouse style space. Keep reading for a look at some of the key style points behind a successful farmhouse look in your own home.

## [Project Tour: Kitchen Remodel in Evendale](https://info.neals.com/project-tour-kitchen-remodel-in-evendale)

We've watched over the past decade as white has made its way back as the queen of kitchen design. White has the benefit of being suitable for the full range of design styles, so it's no wonder that many new kitchens and [kitchen remodels](https://neals.com/kitchen-remodeling/) have relied on this versatile and timeless option. White can, however, become sterile or boring when it's just placed in a kitchen without ample consideration of the overall look, or when done in low-quality or builder-grade materials. This kitchen remodel in Evendale is an excellent example of how a dull and dated white kitchen can be transformed into a modern-feeling, interesting space without sacrificing the white backdrop.

## [Mixing Cabinet Colors in the Kitchen](https://info.neals.com/mixing-cabinet-colors-in-the-kitchen)

Over the past decade, we've seen a major shift in the way kitchen designers and homeowners consider [color options for cabinets](https://info.neals.com/4-color-trends-to-consider-for-your-kitchen-cabinetry) and countertops. In the past, the standard design choice was to select a single cabinet color and pair it with a single countertop color. Now, however, we're seeing the use of multiple cabinet door colors across the kitchen paired often with two different counter materials as a common design style. By using two or more cabinetry colors, homeowners are also able to include more than one cabinet style or play with different preferences, which gives the kitchen a more unique personality. Mixing colors creates a design story that is more complex even as all the elements mix together for a seamless look. Here, we review the most common combinations seen in our [Cincinnati kitchen remodels](https://neals.com/kitchen-remodeling/).

## [5 Ways to Improve Your Kitchen Pantry Design](https://info.neals.com/5-ways-to-improve-your-kitchen-pantry-design)

 Posted by [Christina Temple](https://info.neals.com/author/christina-temple) on Tue, Apr 14, 2020

[![](https://info.neals.com/hubfs/46151_pantry.jpg) ](https://info.neals.com/5-ways-to-improve-your-kitchen-pantry-design)

One objective of a [kitchen remodeling project](https://neals.com/kitchen-planning-resource/) is to improve functional food storage. A kitchen pantry, therefore, is often high on the list of essentials when homeowners remodel their kitchen. There are many design options for effective pantries, including dedicated spaces with shelving, cabinets with pull-out drawers, or combinations of solutions for different types of storage. The advantage of a pantry is the convenience of having dedicated, somewhat customized storage feature you can rely on.
