When
remodeling your small kitchen, the main emphasis should be on the
utilization of the available surface area and thus create or freeing up
more space to allow a convenient installation, easy storage of necessary
kitchen appliances and for ease of movement. You must be able to perform all tasks in the kitchen without any obstacles.
To
begin with, deciding what type of cuisine you want modern or
traditional L-shaped or U, Galley Galley-shaped or bidirectional. Once
you have formed an idea of what you want, draw a plan of your kitchen
design and planning the space you need and the storage area. Think about where you want to the cabinets and how to use. Decide where you want to sink, the work table and the refrigerator. Keep in mind where you want to put the points of water, gas and electricity service. Take a look at the current kitchen in the planning of the new design and think about how things can be arranged in another way. You can also use a kitchen design software to assist with planning and drag and drop elements to get exactly what you want.
If possible, you can end up with a wall and create an open kitchen that extends into the living area. You can put in a kitchen island to separate the two parts. Instead of a particular island, you can get one that can be rolled up above as required. Islands
come in different varieties and shapes, so as it adapts to its overall
design, a rectangular, square, round or oval island can be obtained. If the island doubles as a space for storage or a countertop, even more, it is better.
Install
cabinets and drawers ranging up to the ceiling, this way can store away
your utensils of kitchen, cutlery, dishes, seasonings, vegetables and
other things. Put the menos-a items often used in higher cabinets and use articles common in the lower. If everything does not fit, could be added hooks to the cupboard doors to hang pots and pans from. You can also review all the things that has and get rid of things you really don't need. In any case, try to keep the clutter to a minimum.
Instead of a large dining table, go to a small corner table or drop table. Alternatively,
you can leave out of its scheme of tables and put in a counter built
into the wall, or build a meal table counter height preparation and
double as an eating area. Get more compact and small kitchen appliances. Installing a larger sink, so it is easier to wash.
Apart
from an optimum planning of space, you can create a spacious atmosphere
in your kitchen by a judicious use of color and light. Using
a wood color clear for your cabinets or paint them in a tone cake, for
example, will create a look more light in the kitchen. You can help this effect even more through the installation of glass with the face of the doors of the closet instead of solids.
Paint,
wallpaper or fragmentation of the walls of the kitchen, again go by
light, pastels, with, perhaps, touches of brighter colors. The general rule is to use three main colors and its various shades and nuances, but this is not a railway Convention. Go for bold small and delicate patterns. And the use of tiles of small size instead of the large or extra large. Diagonally installed tile also can help create the illusion of space. If your kitchen has good ventilation and allows plenty of natural light, that will be another advantage. Consider installing a skylight, if this is possible, and if you have Windows rather small.
Before
installation of artificial lighting in your kitchen, moves on his
kitchen floor and identify the main areas that require adequate
lighting. You can have a central light for all kitchen and lighting spot of kitchen and laundry areas. Install lights in closets and under counter storage areas, so you can search inside easily. Make sure that the kitchen lighting is both functional and aesthetic. A place well lit and well planned kitchen will be a pleasure to live.
