Have you ever walked into a friend’s “newly remodeled kitchen” and thought…
“That’s it?”
They spent six figures. Waited six months. Endured dust, delays, and decisions—and yet somehow, the end result feels… off.
It’s technically new. But it doesn’t feel right. The layout is still awkward. The cabinets don’t quite match the vibe of the home. And the one thing they were excited about? Already feels outdated.
So what went wrong?
Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
Most kitchen remodels miss the mark because they focus on style before solving the real problem.
Homeowners (and yes—some contractors) skip past the “why” and jump straight into the “what.” They choose finishes, cabinets, and lighting without taking time to ask:
“What isn’t working in your current kitchen?”
“How do you use your space today—and how do you want to use it in 5 or 10 years?”
