You're a hero of the revolution, truly.<br /><br />Being able to ask readers what they would like has been inspiring -- isn't this a great time to live in? What I'm finding is myself saying, "Of course! Of course!" but I would have never thought of the ideas on my own.<br /><br />(Thank you too, Rich.) <br /><br />Sharon, that's an excellent point about the appliances. It's something that I've discussed with clients but remember for a book? Not a chance. So, thank you!Kelly at Kitchen Synchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14222988371455223006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-69097560924557182012010-04-06T11:40:33.871-04:002010-04-06T11:40:33.871-04:00thanks Paul for the coverage -- A book from Kelly ...thanks Paul for the coverage -- A book from Kelly sounds amazing and I too love her "take it to the streets initiative."<br /><br />If you had a chapter to handle -- what would it be?<br /><br />great one. jb @BMoxieBMorejbhttp://blog.buildingmoxie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-84993392986425619122010-04-06T09:53:53.364-04:002010-04-06T09:53:53.364-04:00Great points and they have the potential to become...Great points and they have the potential to become a chapter in and of themselves in Kelly's bookPaul Anaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777487147630173644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-48463982649594029732010-04-06T09:16:19.365-04:002010-04-06T09:16:19.365-04:00In my opinion, one topic almost always overlooked ...In my opinion, one topic almost always overlooked is designing kitchens for when kids are in the home. Through experience I discovered things in my past and present kitchen I would have changed if I could once I had a child. Example, wall ovens versus a range (being able to open the oven w/out having to shield the child at the same time). Another example, induction cooktops being safer for a kid helping cook versus gas (pots still get hot I know). Yes, kids grow up and will be gone in a few years down the road, but for many years they'll be underfoot.Sharon Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00374987332093426718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-43067488420956194122010-04-06T09:11:20.295-04:002010-04-06T09:11:20.295-04:00I agree wholeheartedly and I applaud Kelly's w...I agree wholeheartedly and I applaud Kelly's willingness to get some feedback to correct what ever she can't see for herself.Paul Anaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05777487147630173644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143843667296816868.post-75331475977455660422010-04-06T08:59:56.454-04:002010-04-06T08:59:56.454-04:00Kelly makes a good (and foundational) point, as sh...Kelly makes a good (and foundational) point, as she solicits fresh takes on tackling a kitchen design - so often we, in the biz, bring too much "past" with us when we look at the present. New eyes, unprejudiced perspectives can be invigorating and stimulating. The old "can't see the faucet for the Brizo"...Rich Holschuhhttp://www.concretedetail.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
