Countertop cabinets are having a moment, and we understand why! They bring storage down to where you actually need it while giving a kitchen that built-in, furniture-like feel. ✨

We love using countertop cabinets in our designs to hide small appliances, create a coffee station, or simply give everyday items a home without sacrificing more counter space than necessary.

Brown is back. Although, we’re not sure it ever really left. 😉

Thank you @hgtvmagazine for featuring our Maryland kitchen in “19 Brown Kitchen Design Ideas That Feel Warm, Rich and Timeless.” For this space, Nadia Subaran chose a rich brown stain rather than an opaque paint, allowing the natural wood grain to show through and bring even more warmth and depth to the cabinetry. Brass hardware adds a little polish, while black pendants give the palette just the right amount of contrast. 🤎 🖤

Wondering what colors are taking over kitchen cabinetry at the moment? 🤔

@thespruceofficial asked designers to weigh in on the shades they’re seeing everywhere, from warm neutrals and earthy greens to richer, moodier hues - and our very own Kelly Emerson gave her take!

One of our favorites: charcoal blue. Can’t decide between blue and black? Consider it the best of both worlds. As Kelly shares, the shade offers the richness and depth of a dark cabinet while still bringing the softness and versatility of blue. 💫

Thank you #thespruce for including Kelly and #AidanDesign in your feature! 💙 Visit the link in bio to read the full article.🔗

Not every inch of a renovation needs to be the splurge. 💰

At Aidan Design, we’d rather invest where quality, performance and craftsmanship make a meaningful difference, then make smart choices elsewhere. Custom cabinetry where it solves a problem. A beautiful stone where it has impact. Hardworking materials where durability matters most. A good renovation budget isn’t about spending equally. It’s about spending intentionally. ✨

Sometimes the best square footage in a renovation is square footage you steal from somewhere else. 📐A little-used closet, oversized hallway or awkward adjacent room can completely change what’s possible in a kitchen or bath. Before assuming the only answer is an addition, we look closely at the space already inside the walls. Your house just may have more room than you think. 🤔

Earlier this week, the Aidan Design team traded the office for a little trip to @subzerowolfcoveshowroommd with Amy Gaeta. We talked kitchens, checked out what’s new, and may have added a few things to our wish lists along the way. 😉

Thanks for having us, Amy! Always a fun visit.

Before choosing bathroom tile, we ask a much less glamorous question: What drives you crazy about your bathroom now? 🤪

Not enough storage? Two people competing for the sink? A shower that feels cramped? Nowhere to put a towel within arm’s reach?

Pretty comes later. First, we solve the annoyances. That’s how a bathroom becomes an upgrade to your actual morning, not simply your house. ✨

“But what about resale?”

We hear it. And yes, smart renovation decisions matter. But if you’re planning to live in your home for years, designing every room for an imaginary future buyer can leave you with a house that doesn’t really feel like yours. 🏡

So choose the bold color. Make room for the giant range if you love to cook. Build the coffee station. A well-designed home can be both a smart investment and unmistakably personal. 💫

We love a dramatic before and after, but the best transformations go well beyond new cabinetry and finishes. This Bethesda renovation gave our clients better flow, smarter storage, and a kitchen designed for the way they actually live. 💫

Swipe for the before, because this one deserves a double take. 👀

The prettiest part of your kitchen might be the part no one sees. Before we design cabinetry, we want to know how you actually live. Where does the coffee maker go? Do you buy in bulk? How many water bottles your kids have? How many small appliances are competing for counter space? 🤔

Good cabinetry isn’t measured by how many cabinets you can fit into a room. It’s measured by whether everything has a place once you move back in. 💫

If a new kitchen is on your 2027 wish list, September is not too early to start thinking about it! 🗓️

The part homeowners often underestimate is everything that happens before construction: establishing priorities, evaluating the existing space, developing the layout, cabinetry design, material selections, appliance planning, and countless details that need to work together before demo day. The best renovations start long before the first cabinet comes out!

If 2027 is your year to renovate, now is the time to start the conversation. Visit our website at link in bio to learn more about working with Aidan Design and book a consultation today. 💻
