EYE FOR DESIGN
Consider all the ways in which you use your kitchen . It ’ s not just for cooking , eating and storing food and equipment : Family members gather in the kitchen , pay bills , do homework , entertain and more . So you should consider all kitchen layout options before deciding what works best for your household .
If your family has multiple chefs , try placing appliances in a way that will create an efficient and adequate workspace . For the entertainer , a kitchen with an island may work best so you can prep and chat with guests at the same time .
Storage is one of the most sought-after kitchen design elements . Organizational systems , such as roll-out spice racks and mixer lift cabinets , provide quick and easy access to supplies .
Lighting is so important in a kitchen : It illuminates both your workspaces and your culinary creations . Layered options like general ambient lighting ,
