Kitchen design is complicated because it requires consideration of several factors. You want enough space to put all the furniture and appliances, but you don’t want to sacrifice aesthetics or efficiency. Today, our leading kitchen remodel experts share insights on what makes a well-designed kitchen.
Ample Storage
A kitchen needs to have plenty of cabinet space for cutlery, glassware and small appliances. You also need storage space for food products. A dream kitchen is also a versatile space, with plenty of storage for miscellaneous things such as charcoal (for outdoor grills) or even a first-aid station.
Convenient Layout
A dream kitchen relies on an efficient layout in order to give you the best kitchen experience. Everything you need on a regular basis should be within arm’s reach. Most kitchen renovation experts base their layouts around the concept of a kitchen triangle, where the stove, the sink and the fridge form a triangle for easy access. This not only makes food preparation efficient, it’s also safer since there are no obstacles to bump into when you’re handling food.
Great Design
There’s no such thing as an ugly dream kitchen — good kitchen design puts a high priority on aesthetics. From beautiful color combinations to the right cabinet trim, a dream kitchen not only works well, it looks amazing. Of course, the kitchen’s design should also match the rest of the home; even a beautiful kitchen will look out of place if it clashes with the rest of the home’s interior.
Energy Efficiency & Low Maintenance
Today’s kitchens have to be able to keep up with modern demands. This means efficient appliances and optimized lighting. Windows must be placed strategically to provide a good amount of natural light. This also means switching to low-maintenance options because nobody likes a good-looking kitchen that requires a lot of work to keep it in good condition. Countertops must be durable, and surfaces should be easy to wipe clean.
