KITCHEN
notebook
The kitchen is a focal point of
your home, so it’s important to
make it one of the best rooms in
the house.
• It is always important to ensure that you have the right
layout for your kitchen. However
it’s important to make sure that
not only does it work aesthetically, but practically as well.
• One solid bank of units can
ruin the appearance of a kitchen, so consider breaking your
kitchen into two with the use of
counter islands.
• Extractor fans can make a
statement, believe it or not.
Nesting your oven into a kitchen
island and putting an extractor
fan above it can do wonders for
the look of your kitchen.
• Don’t let your counter islands
go to waste! Consider putting
two or three barstools along
one side of the island to make a
breakfast bar of sorts.
• Every surface has storage
potential at the end of a unit. This
makes a perfect place for spice
racks, utensils and smaller appliances like microwaves or coffee
machines.
