CCCabinet styles include:
Traditional
If you tell a designer you want a traditional kitchen, she will steer you toward cabinetry reminiscent of 18th- and 19th-century furniture.
Lighting is more functional than artsy, and accessories are decidedly not funky. Countertops are neutral, while backsplashes may be tumbled stone. Flooring is made of tried-and-true woods and patterns. Trimwork features flutes, columns, beadboard or, at the high end, a coffered ceiling. Blue Danube china feels right at home. Traditional can be Old World formal with cherry cabinetry or farmhouse informal with painted-white cabinets and rustic additions such as wooden countertops, scraped wooden flooring and farm sinks.

Transitional
"Pretty but simple" was Renee Bryant's dictate for her kitchen when she and her husband, Christopher, built a house in Hinsdale in 2010. The Bryants checked out kitchens in houses constructed by their builder, Oakley Home Builders of Downers Grove. "We said, 'We like that.' 'We don't like that,'" said Bryant. The result: a kitchen that designers call transitional, meaning it falls somewhere between traditional and contemporary.

Contemporary
The contemporary kitchen is uncluttered and unadorned. It appeals to people who like "clean and sleek," said Flaherty. Appliances are disguised as cabinets so the kitchen does not look "kitchen-y." Cabinets are flat-front wooden, steel or lacquered. Countertops are square-edged, often metal or underlighted glass. Light fixtures are works of art. Accessories are minimal.

Modern
Modern designed kitchen style, first coined in the 1950's, has evolved greatly over time, but typically consists of sleek cut lines, bold statement curves and creative reimagining of traditional materials and fixtures. Wood, manufactured or natural, acrylic and metals are often used, as well as atypical appliance placement with use of asymmetry.
