Redesign my kitchenQuestions
How do I make a mid-century kitchen feel current?
Keep the counters and walls plain and use retro details in moderation: one colored tile, one lighting style and wood cabinets are enough.
Can I try several cabinet colors?
Yes. Generate the style, then use a follow-up edit such as changing only the cabinet color to compare options on the same photo.
