The Hallmarks of Good Kitchen Design

Written by J. Bryant Boyd | Jul. 09, 2021

Design-build firms love constructing new kitchens. This is because no two are exactly alike and a unique kitchen design can really be a true reflection of a homeowner’s taste and lifestyle. That being said, there are key features that every great kitchen has in common. Here’s what they are.

Smart Storage

A kitchen that does not have enough storage will not only look cluttered, but will be difficult to use. One thing that you need to remember is that what you are able to prepare in your kitchen is directly related to what you are able to keep in your kitchen. When planning for a new kitchen, be sure to think about smart and efficient ways you can store food, appliances and dinnerware.

Ample Workspace

Your kitchen counters will be one of the most important features of your new kitchen so be sure to pick them carefully right from the very start. Try to choose a material that is well-suited to the demands of your everyday life. For instance, if you live in a tight space where damage and chipping can be an issue, home remodeling services providers recommend a durable surface like granite or recycled glass. 

High-Quality Appliances

Major appliances such as refrigerators, dishwashers and stoves will be your kitchen’s main workhorses so try to set aside an ample budget for them. Skimping on appliances is a huge mistake many homeowners tend to make only to regret them immediately after. Not only will they last longer, but they will also make the kitchen workload that much easier.
