50 Modern Kitchen Ideas You’ll Fall In Love With…
Jan
Kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s where family cooks, eats, spends time together, even entertain guests. Kitchen design is really important to women, and to some guys too, because they spend a lot of time there and they want to be in a functional, creative environment that is to their taste.
Your design, besides looking pretty, needs to accommodate all the activities that goes around, which is why kitchen remodels are very popular right now. Today, functional islands, farmhouse sinks and stainless steel appliances are common additions, while custom cabinets and countertops are important elements of any dream kitchen.
When you think about kitchen remodeling, there are several aspects to consider. A functional space is key — because you want to be able to move around well, to have enough space for preparation and cooking, and to have enough storage. You should carefully think about where to place your stove, refrigerator, island and cabinets to ensure plenty of space. Kitchens contain a lot of utensils, pots, pans and small appliances, so be sure to have enough space to store all your kitchen essentials at hand.
For small kitchens, a galley layout works great. Since you don’t have much horizontal space, use vertical – install cabinets and shelves high up on the walls. For larger layouts, try an L-shaped or U-shaped kitchen with a modern center island. It provides plenty of cabinet and countertop space, and on the other side you can add a higher counter and bar chairs for a little eat-in space.
If you want more storage include cabinets in your island, buy spice racks and hanging pot racks, or invest in a cart. Finally, your kitchen should look pleasing to the eye and welcoming to guests who visit. You should use quality materials and modern colors to make your kitchen warm, vibrant and inviting. You should also keep it clean and clutter-free.
