Inspiration for your
kitchen style can come from interior decoration
magazines that show beautiful designer kitchens that
look so efficient and functional or a TV sitcom where
your favorite character play the host to his or her
friends and cook them a nice meal happily. Wide range
of option available for doors, worktops and interiors
can make a lot of difference to the look you are
trying to achieve. One has to remember that no amount
of storage space is useless while designing a kitchen.
On the other hand, clever storage solutions will
help you with better organization and assortment of all the
facilities you want in the kitchen in very small space. So, the cabinets and drawers should be designed
to make optimum use of the space and make things easier to find.
You may transform the style of your kitchen with some simple
changes such as self-closing cabinet doors with magnetic locks for
homes with kids, drawers that slide out smoothly, pull-out baskets
and pantries that can be adjusted according to their purpose,
corner units, recycling solutions, open shelves, chopping boards
that can be hidden, hinged countertops and breakfast tables and
utensil organizers. Other options include hanging rails to
accommodate large pots and pans and shallow depth mini-cabinets
customized according to the size of the kitchen.
Worktops should have ample strength and resilience
and should be easy to clean. Most popular worktops include the
solid wood or laminated surfaces. The versatility and warmth of
solid wood is quite welcoming while it looks quiet hygienic too.
It is also believed to possess anti-bacterial qualities and is
quite durable. Age only adds more beauty to it and regular
treatment with makes it more resistant to heat and moisture.
Laminated surfaces are inexpensive, easy to clean and have long
durability too. It can also withstand some spills, knocks and
scratches and come in variety of colors and designs and can give
an instant new look to your kitchen.
The material of kitchen cabinet doors can fit all types of kitchen
design styles easily and can make a great difference to cost and
appearance. They may be made up of solid wood that can take wear
and tear than many other surfaces, have warmth and last longer,
wood veneer which is cheaper but as stable as wooden cousin,
lacquer which is easy to maintain, economical and offer a wider
range of color and style, high gloss foil that reflects more light
and can brighten up a dark kitchen but is not ideal for greasy
cooking and glass doors that open up your kitchen and are
versatile enough to fit different styles.
