Today’s modern kitchens are the epicentre of the home; a place where families gather and guests come to enjoy food and good times.

As the heart of the home, the kitchen needs to be an enjoyable space, as well as practical and functional. There are numerous factors to consider, from layout and storage to ventilation and décor – and so it’s a good idea to work with a professional company to guide you through your options.

The first thing to look at is the layout. There are several tried-and-tested configurations that will help you decide which best suits the size and shape of your space, as well as what fits your functional needs.

Lighting

Try to factor in as many windows as you can – natural light minimises the use of artificial lighting and saves on electricity. Plus sunlight helps to kill germs, making the environment more hygienic. Windows also ensure good airflow to keep the kitchen smelling fresh.
