Molly Chandler , Designer at Willis & Stone unveils her expert insights on perfecting kitchen storage
Key Considerations : Everything in its place
The kitchen is probably the most hardworking room in the home , and we ask a lot from it , including the storage of a multitude of items and gadgets , from crockery and cutlery to bread makers and coffee machines . Therefore , it ’ s worth taking some time to consider the storage needs of your own family and lifestyle at the beginning of a kitchen project .
As a starting point , it makes sense to think about your current or last kitchen and what did or didn ’ t work storage-wise . Did you have enough space for storing awkward items such as tall pasta jars ? Was it a pain to get those weighing scales out from the corner cupboard every time you needed them ? Think about items you use regularly so that easy access can be factored into the design . Consider any particularly large items such as appliances , which may require tall housing units to be built into the plan .
Everyone uses their kitchens differently and storage needs for a keen cook or baker may be different from those of a busy family with young children . Therefore , lifestyle also needs to be factored into the decision-making process . A keen cook may decide on open shelving or dressers to store cookbooks , whereas a large family may need larger appliances
