If you open a book about kitchen interior completing studies, you will find out that the number of steps is large , such as to visit a professional. So, when you would like to decide the design of a brand new kitchen interior space for yours and your family, the importance is strongly increasing.
Professional kitchen designers generally charge per hour or as a percentage of total project costs, or act as reps for showrooms to supply the products.
Color combination
The colour palette you choose for your kitchen will go a long way in defining the space and its feeling. While white is always a go-to, undertones in other hues, such as brass, are having a moment and look divine alongside wood tones in kitchens.
Perhaps it goes without saying, but it is worth stating that, before settling on an open or more traditional, cabinet-storage scheme for your kitchen design, ask yourself this: will it drive you bananas?
Closed cabinets have a modest, clean, polished look that’s ideal for transition. Because they stay in the middle ground, they are easy to personalise with hardware and fixtures. Light grey cabinets are, for all of the reasons cited above, the ultimate in decor flexibility – you can make almost any mood work in any room given the right lighting and furniture arrangement.
Lighting
Lighting, overlooked though it is in the kitchen design process, is hugely influential in how the kitchen will live its life: on a practical level, it will enable intimacy and activity; and on an emotional level, it will create a mood for evening occupancy.
Striking pendant lights in this contemporary kitchen not only create visual interest over the island, they act as task lighting for cooking, The black colour is a nod to industrial design such as Jean Prouve’s purist masterpiece for Vitra of the 1950s (sold as originals on 1st Dibs).
When remodelling, plan your lighting scheme early, says Blake; consider installing LED strip lights under cabinetry and on shelf ledges. This is the most affordable way to convert a traditional kitchen into a stylish modern one, while also providing optimal visibility for the items inside.
Furniture
Kitchen furniture is a vital part of your space and it is important that you first consider the furniture that you will use in this area before building one. Since you will use your kitchen almost every day, it is therefore important that you will buy furniture that is strong enough and stylish. Make sure that your furniture will serve both its functionality and elegance. Also, consider using multipurpose furniture to also make your dining more convenient.
Black hardware is also fast becoming a top-du-jour in kitchen cabinet furniture design — it brings in an ultra-contemporary slim look, on its own or mixed as shown with light cabinets to add an elegant appeal; the way it is coupled with natural stone or marble countertops or back splashes cannot be overemphasised.
Strip ligthts can give nice ambient light in kitchens. They can be fitted under the cupboards, on shelves or on the floor to give general lighting. If you are going into the kitchen at night, it’s as if you have a corridor light, but the big advantage of strip ligthts is that you do not need to turn light on and off and save on electricity as you do not have to be turning lights to get something from behind the unit – an ideal option, but I suppose it’s not as atmospheric if you don’t fancy turning on all the lights when you are not.
Appliances
Appliances are key to a kitchen and key to its design, so they need to be worked out early, so that they can both work comfortably with the space and not take it over; because they will affect how many base and wall cabinets are needed.
Professional kitchen designers will be able to help you to determine which cabinets should be how high and how many, based on what appliances will fit in the space, and give you an idea of the best layout for the kitchen, with attention to how you and your family cook and entertain in your help to choose appliances that fit your budget.
An pay attention to what isiances so that the doors open the proper direction and do not interfere with the architecture of the space, such as a. They may even include electrical drawings in their architectural plans.
