Introduction

If you are reading this book, you are most likely dissatisfied with your current kitchen. You have probably seen many beautiful kitchens in show homes, magazines, and books. And this book is no exception. Within this book, you will see many photos of attractive and stylish kitchens. However, there is one important difference. The kitchens featured in this book have all been outfitted with affordable stock cabinets that can be purchased from a local home improvement center and installed yourself. The result is that you save lots of money and end up with a fabulousbut affordablekitchen.

In the following pages, you will see the many styles that can be achieved with stock cabinets. Youll also meet several homeowners who have been through the renovation process and used stock cabinetry to achieve their goals. Youll see their gorgeous results and learn how they did it. Youll also find the story of a kitchen I recently re-built in my own home using stock cabinets. I think the finished product is beautiful, and it functions as well as it looks.

Before we go much farther, let me introduce myself. My friends call me Jon, and I am a cabinet and furniture maker. I have been involved in many new and remodeled kitchen projects over the years. I am also a licensed general contractor. In addition, I have even had experience owning a restaurant and seeing many of the special needs of a restaurant kitchenspeed, efficiency, and the wise use of space. Many of these ideas can be used to create a better home kitchen. So for this book, I have also solicited the expert assistance of my wife, Executive Chef Sherry Benson. She will be inserting her thoughts and comments in some boxes that well call Restaurant Lessons from a Pro.

Designing and installing a new kitchen can be a complex yet very rewarding project. Todays kitchen is not just a factory for the production of meals. It is often the family gathering place, the drop-off point for school backpacks and mail, the location for entertaining guests, the communications center where family members describe their day as they prepare the evening meal, and a place for solace and quiet at the beginning or ending of the day. So it is worth it to take some time to decide exactly what you want in your kitchen even before you call a designer, contact a contractor, or begin the job yourself. I hope this book will help you achieve that.
