The Designers Guide to Beauty, Function and Low Maintenance

We all love a clean home but I don't know anyone who has the time to spend hours cleaning.

The trick is to design your home with easy maintenance in mind, unless of course you love to clean. Gil Olachea, owner of Ceramica, joins me in the topic of high design vs low maintenance.

We will give you ideas on what to substitute for the following high maintenance items:

Crystal and ornate chandeliers
High maintenance furniture
Open shelving
Cabinets not going to the ceiling
Complex tile patterns
Difficult to clean plumbing fixtures
Porous countertop materials
High gloss cabinetry
Gas stoves
Porous, rough-surfaced tiles
