Cozy Custom Kitchen for That "Inner Chef" in You

April 29, 2016

If you love to cook or you entertain often then you most likely desire a more efficient kitchen to fit your lifestyle. Unfortunately, the ideal chef’s kitchen is all about functionality and not aesthetics. However, you can have the best of both worlds – efficiency and a magnificent design that fits your personal style.

For a chef’s kitchen you definitely need convenience and functionality. These two features include proper storage, surfaces and materials, layout and sinks.

Layout

The ultimate cook’s kitchen generally features an open work triangle. The three corners of the kitchen layout should include the refrigerator, the cooking stove and the sink. That way, when you cook you can easily move around.

Surface and Materials

For serious cooks, convenience should be a main concern. And when comes to surfaces and materials, both functional and exquisite are important. Fortunately, you can have the best of both worlds. Granite is an extremely durable material but requires maintenance. However, quartz countertops offer style and less work than granite. Stainless steel is another great option. It is durable and simple to clean. Yet it does require some cleaning to keep it shining and without finger prints. These are just a few options for countertops. Just keep in mind that it is best to choose a material that is durable an easy to clean.

Sinks

Most chefs prefer a custom kitchen that has more than one sink. Some chefs opt for one large deep sink. Two sinks are ideal for multitasking – one sink is utilized for clean-up and the other sink is used for prep work.

The depth of the sink is also very important. The last thing you want is water splashing out onto the counter over the top of what you are preparing. For material, a stainless steel sink is usually preferred. Ceramic sinks are also a good option.

Storage

One of the most important elements in a custom kitchen is storage. A good design includes large cabinets and drawers that give you easy accessibility. There are also other storage features worth considering.

Stacked Drawers – these types of drawers take up little room but offer a lot of storage.

Built-in Shelves - the built-in shelf can be placed underneath the countertops. They add extra storage and are perfect for compact kitchens.

Hanging Pan Racks – this style is the ultimate chef’s dream. When pots and pans are hanging in the kitchen they are easily accessible when needed, As well, they add a nice rustic look and style.

Glass Faced Cabinets - this style of cabinet is simplistic yet elegant. As well, it makes it easier to find the items you need while you are cooking.
