Repaint, realign and generally revamp your cabinets and storage spaces is the message for kitchen DIY enthusiasts.The Sunday Telegraphs home design team questioned the need for full kitchen overhauls, identifying plenty of tips for sprucing up all-important cabinets and cupboards and giving the kitchen an entirely new feel in the process.Old, tired doors on cupboards were singled out as a target for revamps, with a lick of paint in contemporary colours the remedy proposed.Sleek modern tones such as pale grey, eau de nil and taupe were recommended in order to create a more pleasant focal point below or above the kitchen sink, while cabinets were also said to be well-served by a high quality spray-on satin finish.And when it comes to knobs, kitchen DIYers were advised to steer clear of plain round items that emphasise the mass-produced look of cupboards, being advised instead to seek out unusual handles that will add interest and character.People often install their own cabinets above the countertop level to create extra space and when doing so they are often advised to ensure enough distance is left for the potential installation later on of high taps such as the Gessi Oxygen Swan Neck.
