An impressive chapter gives more than a dozen actual how-to projects for creating luxury kitchen features easily and with professional results. For example, ambitious readers will learn how to create a polished concrete countertop; how to measure, order and install granite surfaces; how to create custom cove lighting systems; how to install a deep-basin sink; how a self-venting fireplace can become part of a remodeled kitchen. Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Dream Kitchens will delight dreamers and doers alike.
