This edition of Ask S&C was inspired by a question from Erika, who wrote:

Hi Steven and Chris,

I need your help. When I bought my house three years ago, I loved the fact that so much was original to the 1940s construction but now that I am ready to redo my kitchen, I'm not sure whether or not I should modernize. Can you please help me plan?

Thanks,
Erika
