The Kitchen Design

29 July 2011

Designing or renovating a kitchen is an exciting project. But the gap between cataloging and preparing the first meal, do not miss a few steps of reflection, otherwise unnecessary stimulation km kitchen evil practice. Here are the main issues to be clarified in order to complete such a project.

Planning
The first point in a redevelopment project is the investigation of resources and budget. A kitchen kit costs about 30% cheaper than cooking at the same turnkey delivery. You can create your own kitchen? There is also an economical option. A kitchen is not just consist of boxes of furniture and appliances should also consider the cornices, trim the sides, end spinners, banners, light cache, etc … In fact, people often underestimate the cost and not the budget that 60% of the cost of a kitchen.
Before you begin browsing the catalog, you have some time observing how you use the kitchen to spend. What you meals in the kitchen? How many people are atablees? Did you ever have four pans on the fire at the same time? Practice recycling? (I hope). What are the utensils you use most? We all use in our kitchen and good personal development of the furniture must match. Your kitchen should look like, and your life easier, take the time to conduct a kitchen to your pictures to analyze.
Selecting the style of your kitchen to start the catalog or browse the Internet. Kitchens Kitchens are often divided into three categories: modern, classic, traditional. It is easy in a kitchen, as proposed by the projected catalogs, but few of us, in a loft or an old renovated house with exposed beams and antique feel to live. It has been translated over from the dream and the style of the furniture in the room with the style and type of food that housing in general. Some examples of different styles

Measurements and drawings
First a sketch of the room by show of hands to pull, which we do not forget to get (to open and the direction) the position of doors and windows, the arrival and the elimination of the existing water supply to electric (or gas) to see existing and radiators.
Then draw up a plan for the kitchen scale is important to realize the place is a piece of furniture. There are software cheap (€ 10), which allows you to create your own kitchen in three dimensions. It is not clear, imagine what we see in 3D on a 2D plane. Software for kitchen design in 3D is a very useful tool and a great toy for your kitchen, in whatever form that allows your imagination to give.

Implantation
The type of location (I, L or U) depends largely on the game, but the arrangement of the furniture is flexible and should be carefully addressed. There are three main sections, each with one type of activity:
1st Preparation: It has everything here to a meal (food, plates) to prepare. It ensures that these elements are not removed from no more than two.
2nd Cooking: The area beyond the hob and oven. Are grouped near the stove, which is used as a hot meal (pots, dishes, spices and oil). All these elements must be on hand, preferably in drawers or cupboards under or beside the stove.
3rd Washing: This area is used both during preparation and after eating. It consists primarily of a sink and dishwasher often. The sink is used in the kitchen, access should be simple and comfortable, with room for spinning / drying dishes and pots. It is located in front of a window, a little profit from the ideal lighting. The dishwasher is so close, can be adjusted (often under the drip tray) to use the same pipes and sewers.
For the positioning of elements, we start with the least flexible: first, the sink (depending on the position of the tubes), according to the hob and the hood, pillars and furniture downstairs, and finally the high elements.
Some tips: furniture large lower drawers are handy for storing pots and pans. Put a group along the wall on small devices to connect. Lighting under the upper cabinets are very useful to have a direct view of the plan to have. Think of your back, put the stove on high and not the hob. I encourage you to practice the type of waste. Of the containers are now with more subjects, such as glass, aluminum and iron, batteries, compost available.
