The one thing my rental apartment kitchen has going for it is that it’s new. When the old tenants moved out, a team of contractors came and removed the ugly floors, cabinets, and countertops and replaced them with new versions — but new in no way equates to modern or cool.
My kitchen looks, I imagine, about the same as many rental kitchens out there: beige and bland. If you’re faced with a similar dilemma (i.e., a perfectly fine rental kitchen with zero personality), there is an easy way to make it just a bit more stylish.
