Twinning never looked this stylish

Over the years there have been a numerous design articles and trends that explore different looks, styles, patterns, colours and textures. Whether it’s a mashup that blends much-loved family antiques with warm minimalism or contrasting stripes with florals, the art of mixing and matching involves combining to showcase personal favourites, palettes and philosophies. The goal, for many homeowners, is to give their spaces something eye-catching, unique and unexpected that reflects their personality. 

The true magic of creating a custom, personalized (and high resale value), space is being clever enough to select a collection of fully-integrated appliances to meet your needs.

This will not only allow you the option of selecting best-in-class appliances in each category, but will also provide you with considerably more enhanced design choices. By mixing and matching, you’ll be able to get away from brand aesthetics and opt for your preferred cabinet style, colour, handles (or handle free) and installation placement.

Plan to hide the master fridge, without compromising your chosen features, refrigeration quality or noise levels. And, why not also hide the dishwasher somewhere convenient where it won’t be noticed. Keep it out of sight and mind while keeping the noise levels low and seamlessly integrating it into your kitchen style. After all, you don’t get high resale by showing a black or white, or even a stainless steel dishwasher these days.

 You’re shouldn’t be locked into what everyday appliance manufacturers make to satisfy their economy of sale, production and pricing. Seek out elite brands that are proudly reliable, energy saving and offer state of the art  lifestyle features per product to meet your design vibe and your family’s requirements.
