7 Kitchen Renovations Where Minimalism Rules

No clutter in sight

Is bare better? For these homeowners, who all renovated with a Sweeten general contractor, the answer is most definitely, yes. They wished for kitchens where the color palette stayed light and bright, and the storage was both expanded—and hidden. Check out their remodeled cook spaces below.

A hidden range hood and refrigerator, plus deep storage drawers do the trick.

The biggest focus of this kitchen renovation? To make the kitchen look well, less like a kitchen. The custom cabinetry with built-in storage and a hidden refrigerator deliver.
