--insufficient lighting. Light the damn kitchen like a surgery. Put in a dimmer. When you need the bright arse lights (pulling pin bones out of salmon, deveining shrimp, trying to clean the crevices of the fancy trim), you'll have it. When you want mood lighting, simply turn the dial.



I'm with you on the lighting. My kitchen has tons of light.

I don't mind dark colored cabinets, but I'm not a beige or neutral person. My kitchen and house probably wouldn't appeal to everyone, but it only has to appeal to me. My kitchen walls are fire engine red with a lot of white cabinets. When I repainted the cabinets, you nearly needed sunglasses with all the lighting on at once.

I have NINE recessed can lights with ultra-daylight bright LEDs. White marble countertops, double wide window over the sink and huge double windows in the adjacent dining area. It's all about the light, to me.

+1 on smooth tile (or continuous stone, but that's pricey) backsplashes.

All white is a bit cold, I like some natural wood tones to warm up the cool colors. BUT NO BEIGES OR BROWNS. Gah.
