Kitchen Design Considerations - Top tips for designing your kitchen space

The kitchen in our Panama 275 Display features an enormous island bench with a stunning stone top with waterfall ends. The kitchen is the heart of our open living style home.

The kitchen is one of the most important space in a home. Here’s some things to consider when designing your kitchen space:

Ensure you’re allowing enough space between your island and any other benches in your kitchen. Chances are there’ll always be more than one person wandering around in the kitchen and the last thing you need is to be ducking under a hot fry-pan!

Ensure your appliances are suitable for the space. If you’re one of those french-door-fridge kind of people then you need to make sure there is enough room to swing those beautiful doors open without hitting or bumping into your beautiful new cabinetry

Position your cooktop is an area with less air-flow (away from the window) to ensure consistent heat when cooking. When thinking about your cooktop position remember that you’ll need to install a rangehood directly above it – so make sure there’s room!

Ensure the flow of your kitchen will suit your lifestyle. If you’re opting for an open-living plan (like Esprit is known for) then you want to ensure your kitchen is facing your entertaining area to keep the open flow of the layout. While you’re cooking and prepping you should still be able to converse with your family or entertain your guests!

Remember - the kitchen is the heart of every home. Careful design consideration is key to creating a space that flows and functions efficiently.
