Meet the designers - Michael Vore
Kitchen and bath designer, Michael Vore, has been in the construction business since his teenage years. "I grew up doing kitchens with my dad from an early age". After returning from college, he was a sub-contractor for several other kitchen dealers, but soon decided to do design as well. Naturally, the next step was to help open the showroom he is still working from today. He is a certified Formica and Corian solid surface fabricator and attends continuing education classes regularly through the SEN buying group to stay up to date on the latest industry trends.
Michael is married with four children. He is a member of Temple Baptist Church and enjoys playing golf, fishing and camping.
Meet the designers - Donna Vore
Donna Vore has been a kitchen and bath designer since 1999. "I became a kitchen designer because my husband thought I was a good salesperson. My background is in sales, so it seemed a natural transition for me. I love working with clients putting colors together and designing "different" things. My favorite look is contemporary, although it is really just catching on for our area. Jonesboro is still very traditional." Some of Donna's favorite projects are ones that offer the biggest challenge. "My favorite part of designing is seeing something on paper and then seeing it done in a clients home. The freedom to design an unusual project is also a big plus for me." One particular project, a client brought in the front of a magazine and said it was exactly what she wanted. "That was really fun because we got to track down the exact materials and had the freedom to add our touch to the project and because of budget constrants, that doesn't happen often". Donna has completed design courses through Kraftmaid University, Bertch Cabinets and participates in continuing education classes through SEN buying conferences.
When not designing kitchens for clients, Donna is a full-time sports mom. "All my kids are playing sports or have played sports in the past, so most of my networking is on the baseball and football fields. They keep me in a full-time second job for sure. We are also active in the Paragould chamber, Jonesboro Jaycees and Temple Baptist Church. My life is never boring, which is the way I like it."

Corian / solid surface counter tops
Solid surface is a very popular option for countertops. If solid surface is scratched or cracked, it can be fixed without having to replace the tops. We usually finish the tops to a "matte finish" meaning they are a bit shiny, but not overly shiny. Keep in mind, the shiny they are, the higher maintenance. If you like the high shine look, granite or quartz is a better option.
