If you want to create an effective open-plan kitchen for your property, what should you consider? Well, there are a number of things to bear in mind, including:
-
Creating well defined zones- For an open plan kitchen to be effective, you need to use zones for different activities. For example, your food preparation area needs to be clearly separate from your seating, relaxing or dining spaces. For this, you can consider a range of design details including:
-
kitchen islands- kitchen islands can act as the perfect physical and visual barrier that divide one part of the kitchen from another.
-
Different flooring- another option that is more subtle is to use different flooring in the different areas.
-
Designing around focal points- for large open plan spaces, focal points can help give the space more grounding. Whether it’s a centre piece kitchen island, a stunning dining table, or stylish tiles, there are many ways to achieve this, and add personality and character to your space.
