Defining Modern Design
Modern design is an exciting hot trend that speaks to many of our clients that want bright open spaces. Modern design has its roots as a response to the detailed design eras such as the Victorian and the Gothic eras, which were characterized as extremely ornate.
Modernism is the result of a focused effort of clients to simplify their lives. When we complete a modern kitchen, our client benefits from our efforts to curate and specify meaningful fixtures, cabinets, appliances and other components of the remodel in a strategic way that results in clean space with minimal clutter.
Modern design often calls on the Weiler's team to do more with less. It requires observations, innovation and stimulation. Modern kitchen and bath design
is an exciting option, because it gives our clients and our team the opportunity to challenge themselves and their surroundings.
