\"\"If you\u2019re feeling the squeeze in your kitchen space, you\u2019re likely looking for room to expand. If stealing space from an adjacent room isn\u2019t an option, Normandy Designer Vince Weber<\/a> says that adding more square footage by building an addition might be your best solution.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen considering an addition to create a larger kitchen, the first step is to determine how your family uses the room and then identify what your pain points<\/a> are,\u201d Vince says.<\/p>\n

Eat-in or eat out<\/h4>\n

\"TheThe way we use our kitchens<\/a> has evolved. They\u2019re no longer just a room for meal prep, but a gathering and entertaining space, as well. \u201cWhether or not to have an eat-in area in the kitchen is a big deciding factor on the room\u2019s layout,\u201d Vince notes. An island is almost a staple in today\u2019s kitchen, but the size and functionality are up to you. \u201cSome families opt to use a large island<\/a> as their eating area, while others may use the island for prep and maintain a traditional dining room, while also having a kitchen table for larger, casual gatherings,\u201d says Vince.<\/p>\n

Then comes the issue of storage<\/h4>\n

Lack of storage is usually a big pain point and a reason to consider an addition. If your cabinets are already filled with that beautiful heirloom china set, your stand mixer is likely creating visual clutter on your countertops<\/a>. Additional storage space can be gained from more efficient layouts, but there is a limit to what that can provide. \u201cSometimes, the only way to get more cabinets is to have more walls,\u201d Vince notes.<\/p>\n

One story, or two?<\/h4>\n

You may assume that additions are large in scale, but often a small addition can have a big impact. \u201cSometimes a 4\u2019 bump out<\/a> is all that\u2019s needed for a kitchen,\u201d \"Sidesays Vince. There are many examples where just a few extra square feet provided the right amount of breathing room that completely transformed the space.<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019re already adding on, take a moment to consider what\u2019s above the newly added space. Is it an opportunity for a larger primary suite? Both one and two-story additions<\/a> provide opportunities and challenges. \u201cIf you\u2019re going to keep the addition at a single level but live in a two-story home, there are second floor windows and roo<\/a>flines<\/a> to contend with,\u201d says Vince. \u201cA skilled designer will help you create an exterior that works well with your home and make the most of your addition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes, an addition will take longer<\/h4>\n

\"Sitting<\/p>\n

Pouring concrete, framing walls, and obtaining permits for an addition will take longer than an interior remodel. \u201cBut it\u2019s a very small price to pay for such a huge, positive impact on your home and the way you live,\u201d adds Vince. Given the numerous benefits and added square footage, many opt to move forward with an addition, despite a slightly longer timeline.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat really matters is finding the right solution for you,\u201d says Vince.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re considering building an addition to create the dream kitchen you\u2019ve always longed for, or have another home remodeling project in mind, schedule a time<\/a> to speak with Vince.
