Are you planning to renovate your kitchen to boost its functionality? If your kitchen needs more storage space or if you want to change the layout of the kitchen, you may want to consider YHIT custom kitchen renovations. To make your kitchen more functional, the following are some renovation tips you should consider:
Design the Kitchen According to the Work Triangle
The work triangle is a kitchen design guideline that can help you plan out your workspace efficiently. It dictates where the sink, fridge, and cooktop must be placed. Regardless of your kitchen’s size and shape, the guideline can help optimise efficiency. By incorporating it in your renovation, movement is reduced to allow access to all kitchen elements without moving a lot. The guideline ensures there is enough counter space between your major kitchen appliances and improves workflow safety.
Think About Your Appliance
Outdated appliances do not belong to a newly renovated kitchen and can draw attention away from the room’s new look. Apart from the aesthetic advantage of new appliances, they are also energy-efficient. Also, they provide more benefits and features that make using the kitchen easier, more fun, and more exciting. If you want your kitchen to have a streamlined design, think about a contemporary integrated-panel option as they ensure your kitchen appliances blend well with the cabinets.
Also, consider your small appliances. Ensure your kitchen renovation includes a space to accommodate these appliances and keep them out of sight. This way, you will have clear counters, which enhance your kitchen’s appearance.
Light Up the Space
Led technology makes it possible to illuminate the kitchen. Consider installing under-cabinet lights as well as lights inside cupboards and drawers. Optimising lighting makes it easier for you to easily find what you are looking for. Also, better lighting improves cleaning and cooking.
Make the Most of the Storage
Custom storage solutions such as pullout spice racks are a great addition to your modern and functional kitchen. You can also install ceiling-high cabinets for additional storage space. For a small kitchen, this can create an illusion of a big space by taking the eye upward. You can store cookware and serving dishes in these tall cabinets.
Add a Dedicated Workspace
If you tend to do some work in the kitchen regularly, it may make sense to add a dedicated workspace to it during the renovation. If you are not working from home, you can use this space for paying bills, writing out a recipe, or signing schoolwork.
