What are the benefits of having a kitchen with glass cabinets?
- You can have your cake and eat it too: plays well with solid cabinets so you get to chose what you show and what you don’t show
- Beautifully fits in most kitchen styles and color palettes
- Creates an opportunity to display treasured glassware and dinnerware
- Improves the kitchen’s functionality by letting you find what you need more easily
- Glass inserts can be adapted to existing cabinetry for a budget-friendly quick kitchen remodel
What are the main options for glass kitchen cabinets?
- Types of Glass: clear, frosted (slightly opaque glass), textured (glass embossed with a pattern), seeded (tiny bubble-like features on glass), leaded (slightly tinted glass)
- Layout Options: installed throughout the kitchen, in conjunction with solid cabinets, as part of the kitchen island base, on a unique piece such as an armoire with interior lighting, on peninsula cabinets, on small top cabinets (between the upper cabinets and the ceiling)
- Design Ideas: mullion (cross, criss cross, medallion, bespoke), molding and trim variations
