How To Create The Perfect Kitchen Design Your kitchen can be
one of the most creative
rooms in your home. For a stylish and slick looking design, there are several
trends for 2020 that you can choose from. Read our blog to find the best
kitchen designs and how to create a design you love for your home. Heads
Apart offer
kitchen design, installation and renovation. Regardless of your current kitchen
style, we can completely transform the interior of your home or make
alterations to the existing spec.
Choosing Colour
Scheme & Materials The first
step in your kitchen design is finding a colour scheme and materials that you
love, which fit into your home. Whether you are looking to install a brand new
kitchen or just renovate your existing one, the colour scheme you choose can
make or break the final design of your kitchen. There are several combinations
of materials that you can choose in the design process:
Glass Granite Laminate Marble Porcelain Tile Quartz Soapstone Stainless Steel Stone Tile Wooden With so
many materials to choose from, you can choose a kitchen tailored to you, and
bespoke to your home. Stone finishes create a stylish and smooth look, whether
you go for marble, granite or another option. A wooden interior means a more
country or traditional style, whilst remaining stylish.
Your choice
of material can potentially limit the colour schemes available, however, many
of the products will come with different colour options so this can still be
styled to your home. You would want to make sure the colour scheme you select
for worktops fits perfectly with the materials for flooring, walling, cupboards
and cabinets.
Kitchen Cupboards
& Cabinets Kitchen
cupboards, cabinets and units are a key feature in kitchen
design . Once your
colour scheme and materials are chosen, you may wish to limit your kitchen to
just two or three colours around the room. This means that coordinating kitchen
cupboards to your worktops or flooring, will give it a sense of you and will
fit well with the other features in the room and around your home.
Similarly,
with kitchen cupboards you again have several choices for the materials and finish.
You will want your cupboards to be pleasing to the eye but not so prominent
that they stick out like a sore thumb. Handles for your cupboards can be
non-existent or made to be a feature, with cupboards opening from the top,
bottom or sideways. Either way, we can help to advise on what may look great in
the finished product.
Consider
Your Layout The layout
of your kitchen is very important and you must consider where you want each
kitchen feature to be installed. When choosing your design and colour scheme,
there are a number of stunning combinations that can be created which can
almost become a feature in themselves. But, you don't forget features such as
your oven, sink and stove, as well as appliances like dishwashers, washing
machines, toasters and microwaves - these finishing touches all add to the
final look; whether integrated or not.
These
appliances and features should be just as stylish to keep up the aesthetic of
your kitchen without having to completely redesign your kitchen around this. By
considering the layout of your kitchen, we fit every feature in, still
maintaining the desired style for your home.
Flooring, Walling
& Decoration Although
tiled floors and painted walls are often the most obvious choice, there are
other options for a bespoke interior design. Both wooden and marble floors can
create a fantastic style and appearance. Marble and tiling can also be on
walls, so when planning your design, consider the colour and style you want and
how to fit your kitchen together with materials and colours that complement
each other.
What we
would say, is to choose one or two feature points rather than making all
aspects bold. Whether this is using decorative laminate for your worktop
designs or having splashbacks around your sink and stove, these little
additions can really perfect the final kitchen design.
