  • Architectural Features to Consider for a Beautiful Nautical Kitchen

    Nautical inspired home design has been a part of traditional New England homes for years. Subtle references to the sea help create a look that is classic while also feeling fresh and new. If you’re hoping to create a nautical inspired kitchen during your home remodeling project consider adding the following:

        • Circular windows Installing a single circular window or several in a series suggests the idea of a ship’s porthole and can add a nautical feel to your kitchen. To add even more visual interest, consider adding detailed casements to the window that match the room’s trim.
