Kitchen Laminate Counters Recessed Lighting Design Photos and Ideas

The Anza Airstream was designed to feel more open than other trailers, with little upper cabinetry.
Pros: Laminate is at the low end of the price range for countertops, is scratch- and stain-resistant, and comes in a tremendous range of colors. It’s also easy to install, making it a viable DIY option for the handy crowd. 

Cons: Because laminate countertops are created by layering pieces of plywood and plastic, edges can chip off easily, and the surface can even melt if too much heat is applied directly.
Glass walls and sliding doors connect the first level to the lush yard and garden.
