Planning a kitchen renovation?

Kitchens are traditionally considered the heart of the Quebec home, a place for gathering, sharing and cooking. Yet, for a wheelchair-bound individual, a senior facing a gradual loss of autonomy or a person with reduced mobility, this room can quickly become a complex and hazardous obstacle course. Counters that are too high, inaccessible kitchen cabinets and poorly positioned appliances can significantly limit a person’s ability to prepare their own meals, directly affecting their dignity and day-to-day independence.

It's the kind of thing that might seem like such a small detail during a major kitchen renovation, but without cabinet door handles, boy are you in trouble! Sure, there are some cabinet doors that don't require any handles to open or close. However, most often, cabinet hardware, either handles, pulls, or knobs is required to open cabinets and drawers. 

Thinking about adding a new backsplash to your kitchen to revamp your current, outdated design? Here are some ideas to inspire your next kitchen renovation project!
