Ideal kitchen
DESIGNING a kitchen is no easy task and requires careful planning, time and money. In rushing to purchase a kitchen set when they come across something they fancy, some homeowners have experienced some of the biggest kitchen design blunders they have had to pay for or live with. Given that any kitchen purchase is a long- term investment, it’s critical to know what design mistakes to avoid: 1. Not considering your workflow When planning your kitchen, remember your kitchen's busiest areas ( known as the “work triangle”) – the sink, stove, and refrigerator. Make sure these areas and appliances are in an efficient location that is relevant to one another. 2. Insufficient counter space Having enough space to prepare food, cook, entertain or even place groceries are just a few instances where counter space will be important. More counter space isn’t a feature that’s easy to change or add on, so it’s worth giving it careful thought even if it is going to cost more initially. 3. Choosing the wrong materials/ finishes A kitchen made of high- quality materials and surfaces is very easy to maintain. Stay away from cheap materials offered during sales promotions. 4. Choosing the wrong design Kitchen design is something very personal, there is no right or wrong when choosing a suitable design. A good kitchen planner should take the time to discuss and understand your personality and daily activities in order to help you design a kitchen that suits your lifestyle, and not the standard kitchen modules they offer for convenience. 5. Forgetting your budget Try to get a good kitchen planner who can do good kitchen planning according to the customer’s needs. A clever design will lower the costs but fulfils all your needs. 6. Forgetting the big picture When you're planning your kitchen design, remember to consider every element, including walls colour, your backsplash treatment and flooring, and how it all ties together. You can gather ideas and information online, or from premium kitchen showrooms that showcase a variety of display and design inspirations. 7. Going at it alone Doing it all alone will increase your risk of making the wrong decisions in your kitchen purchase.
