    One Oven, Endless Possibilities: Cooking Made Easy

    Appliances are one of the most important elements in a kitchen whether you prepare meals once a week or cook every night. One appliance you may or may not be familiar with the 5-in-1 Advantium.  This oven is one of the more versatile items I would definitely recommend and you will learn all about it as I chat with my guest, Julie Burns, Executive Director with Monogram.  The Advantium has 175 preprogrammed recipes plus storage for 30 of your own recipes.  It can be installed over the range, as a wall oven or in combination with a typical wall oven.  In addition, it is a speed oven, a true European Convection oven, a sensor microwave and a warming/proofing oven.

    Invisible Kitchens – Minimalism Meets Function

    Enjoy the Best of Home Design Chat with Nancy Minimalist design and open-plan living have been all the rage for the last few years, and I don’t see any signs of it stopping. Who doesn’t love a sleek look and a decluttered space, especially when it comes to the most used space in your home? An invisible kitchen, also known as a hidden kitchen, is a minimalist design that integrates kitchen appliances and storage into the rest of the home. The goal is to keep conventional kitchen elements out of sight so the room blends in with the rest of the space. Jan Rutgers, owner of Vestibule Designs and frequent guest on Home Design Chat with Nancy will explain several ideas to achieve the invisible kitchen idea in your home. Eliminate upper wall cabinets Install display shelf Create a hidden pantry Incorporate a row of tall cabinets integrate appliances with panels Use Sliding doors Hide the hood Avoid door & drawer hardware and many more ideas Why are these ideas taking off now?

  5. How to Remodel Your Dream Kitchen with Total Confidence

    How to Remodel Your Dream Kitchen with Total Confidence

    Remodeling a kitchen, as I have said numerous times, can be very overwhelming and stressful.  How can a homeowner feel less stressful and happy at the end of the project?  This is a common question among many other questions which is the subject of this podcast, a continuation of last week's podcast (October 13, 2024).  Gil Olachea, owner of Ceramica in Scottsdale, AZ, asked many questions during both podcasts, last week's and this week's, that are on the minds of many people.  Gil interacts with many professional designers and their clients so he has first hand-knowledge of the topics he brings to the table. Here are some of the questions that were asked: How can hiring a kitchen designer save money? Can a kitchen designer consult for a few hours? Does a kitchen designer work with the general contractor? How is the right equipment for kitchens, baths and laundry rooms determined? What should be considered in selecting appliances? What is the difference between buying plumbing at a specialty showroom and a big box store? If you have questions that were not asked or answered, don't hesitate to contact Nancy.

    Achieve the Perfect Kitchen Remodel Without Stress

    Gil Olachea, owner of Ceramic, an upscale tile showroom in Scottsdale has been on this podcast many times explaining everything about the different tile products, the characteristics of tile and the tile trends for each year.  Obviously, Gil is very experienced at being a guest but he thought it would be fun to put me on the hot seat and interview me.  We covered many topics about design, what the advantages are for using professional designers and why kitchen and bath designers would save the client money, time & stress on design projects. Homeowners have many questions when they are thinking of remodeling a kitchen and/or bath so hopefully we satisfied many of them, however, we found that we didn't address as many questions as we would have liked due to time restraints. We will continue the interview on the next podcast which will air October 20, 2024.  If you have questions about your remodel projects, don't hesitate to email me at Nancy@nancyhugo.com.

    The Hottest Appliances You Can't Live Without!

    Planning to remodel your kitchen or update your appliances?  When remodeling chose your appliances first because the size of the appliances will dictate your kitchen design and function of the space. If you are updating the appliances be aware of the sizes of the existing ones.  Once you know the purpose of each appliance on your wish list (size of the refrigerator, free-standing range, wall oven, microwave drawer) you then can research the brands and their benefits.  You certainly should be interested in what's new and what's out especially if you will be selling your home in a few years. This podcast is all about the newest and most popular appliances and what they have to offer.  My guest is Andy Welemin, an industry professional with decades of experience. Andy works with Arizona Appliance & Home and travels between their 3 Arizona locations when needed to meet clients.   Our talking points today: Induction cooking 48" French door Refrigerators New washer/dryer options Appliance colors Steam Cooking Smart Appliances This podcast sponsored by ⁠⁠Monogram Appliances⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Studio 41⁠⁠ email comments & questions to Nancy@NancyHugo.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/home-design-chat-w-nancy/support

    Exciting New Ideas that Have Replaced the Out-of-Date Designs

    Nancy is taking a podcast break so enjoy this previously recorded podcast recorded in February, 2024.  Summary of what this podcast will cover: Styles come and go constantly and so to ideas that have been used by builders for new construction.  Will those designs resurface?  Were they really popular?  When it comes to remodeling your kitchen and bath, there are certain ideas that builders incorporated into their houses should never be brought back.   Why did builders think putting a desk in a kitchen was a great idea.  Those wet bars from years ago were not functional.  I never saw 2 sinks in the kitchen when I was called in to remodel and update the space.   Bathrooms designed with tubs in the ground and then later put in a deck made it dangerous and impossible to use.  Make-up areas in the master bathroom was a total waste of space What’s popular instead of the above ideas? Desks in home offices or closets Wet bars turned in to Beverage centers Multi sinks that are well designed for task areas in the kitchen Bathrooms with free-standing tubs Mirrors with integral LED lighting over the vanities This podcast sponsored by ⁠⁠Monogram Appliances⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Studio 41⁠⁠ email comments & questions to Nancy@NancyHugo.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/home-design-chat-w-nancy/support
