Cabinetry / Lighting – The quick essentials!

July 12th, 2010

What does custom cabinetry have to do with lighting – EVERYTHING!
As designers and manufacturers of custom millwork, we KNOW that our product shows best under the proper lighting conditions. We can build lighting into our built ins or decorative cabinets in kitchens but just as important is a properly planned & executed lighting plan for the entire living space.
Today’s living incorporates sustainable and green alternatives in support of energy conservation. For this, there are options to utilize LED lights. Accent lighting over kitchen islands that use less energy consuming bulbs rather than incandescent light bulbs are an option that doesn’t compromise the look of the fixture. Dimmer switches are also now utilized to modulate brightness and keep down energy usage. Using dimmers creates the ‘look’ and ambience one desires to affect mood and environment. Automatic light controls turn off when needed.
Misani Custom Design has the technical expertise on staff to work with contractors to ensure your home is prepared, ready and shows off your renovation in its best “light”.

MISANI WINS GOLD !!

March 17th, 2010

Spring is upon us – we know this because Home Show season has begun! Participating in the Ideal Home & Garden Show this past weekend at the “new” Careport Centre in Hamilton was a blast.  Enough can’t be said for the organizers at Continuum Productions as well as the people who attended from Mississauga all the way to Fisherville! A real buzz could be felt all weekend.  With over 200 exhibitors, the best BUZZ is  Misani Custom Design won Best 10ft Booth for the entire show! I couldn’t wait to get back in the shop and share the trophy with our staff.  We take such pride in the quality workmanship of our product which our clients reinforce regularly but it’s always nice to be publicly acknowledged for the work we do!  Thanks Dwayne and your staff at Continuum for hosting a great show, we look forward to the Fall Home Show circuit!

Testimonial Advertising – PRICELESS!!

March 2nd, 2010

February 2010 – Now that the kitchen renovation is completed Jeanne & I feel that we must write and express our thanks properly for a job extremely well done.  It has been an extremely enjoyable experience working with you, your staff and contractors.  We first met Teresa at the Burlington Home Show and we were impressed by her presentation at that time.  This was reinforced when we visited the Misani showroom to discuss the project, when we were given a guided tour of the production facilities.  Clearly, a great deal of thought was put into finding the right design for us, which maximized our storage capacity.  Everyone who has visited since the completion has been very complimentary about the design and the overall appearance.

The renovation started as promised, an unusual event in this day and age and was completed with as little delay as possible.  We were pleased with the flexibility shown by Misani when minor complications resulting from the design were discovered, none of which could have been foreseen.

The contractor you used, Rick Tanner, was very professional and his choice of subcontractors was excellent. The workmanship of those contractors and the cabinet installer could not be faulted.

We believe that the price was very competitive for the quality of the cabinetry and workmanship.  We would recommend to anyone that they discuss their kitchen renovation project with Misani before committing to an alternative supplier.

Thank you again and please do not hesitate to use this as a letter of recommendation.

Yours truly,

Barrie and Jeanne Montague

Starting Point: THE FLOOR

January 8th, 2010

Yes, we design and manufacture custom cabinetry and have you ever stopped to think what goes under the cabinetry??  In the kitchen, den or bathroom — the anchor to the space is the flooring!  Whether your ultimate choice is a vinyl tile with an aged look to appear like Limestone or Slate or solid hardwood which can provide a dramatic look and warmth, it all starts with the floor.  As custom cabinet makers, we know our clients often feel overwhelmed at first with the initial daunting task of starting a home improvement project.  Our goal is to educate and reassure our clients that our ability to match and/or compliment any colour or species is where we really shine.  Our experience tells us most people are visual so we provide samples as starting points.  Sourcing flooring is a challenge for sure, throw in counter options, backsplash, light fixtures, hardware finishes….and you’ve got a recipe for stress.  Our job is to guide and recommend choices that suit your practical needs, personalities and achieve the look and feel in your home that exceeds your expectations.
