The kitchen is one of the central rooms of the home, and good organization can make your daily life easier. Whether it's a small kitchen, an open kitchen, or a long kitchen, there are many solutions for creating a more functional kitchen. Discover how to make your kitchen more comfortable to use every day with our tips and tricks.
A suitable layout for a more functional kitchen
One of the first rules for a more functional and pleasant kitchen is to choose a suitable layout. The activity triangle allows you to harmoniously position the different activity areas of the kitchen to limit movement and make your life easier. It consists of placing the cooling area with the refrigerator, the cooking area with the stovetop and oven, and the cleaning area with the sink in a triangle shape to limit unnecessary movement.
Also consider the flow of traffic in your space. A kitchen cluttered with cabinets and units isn't pleasant. Small kitchens can't have a central island, as this could unnecessarily clutter the available space. Make sure you choose a layout that makes sense within your available space.
Finally, consider your lifestyle habits when positioning your kitchen units based on your personal use. A comprehensive consultation with our professional kitchen designers will help you clearly define your project and make the best layout choices.
What storage should you choose for a more functional kitchen?
After choosing a kitchen furniture layout that suits your space and your habits, it is necessary to choose
smart furniture and storage to obtain a more functional kitchen.
When renovating a kitchen, kitchen cabinets are a great way to store bulky and rarely used appliances. You can install fixed shelves or sliding drawers to make more efficient use of your space.
Drawers and drawer organizers are essential elements for a functional kitchen. They allow you to fully optimize your space and easily access the bottom of your drawer. Adapted to the size of your pots and pans, the drawer organizer is perfect for organizing your everyday kitchen utensils.
Display cabinets can also be used, provided they are well-organized and uncluttered. Shelves are inexpensive storage solutions, but they can quickly look cluttered if overloaded.
There are also many clever storage solutions that enhance the functionality of your kitchen. The English drawer allows you to divide your drawers for precise storage. Some cabinets have integrated recycling bins for a more eco-friendly kitchen and easier waste management.
Slim cabinets are perfect for storing your spices and optimizing small spaces. Finally, magnetic bars can help you organize your knives and utensils more easily.
