The everyday gathering place
Kitchens
Make room for the way you cook, gather and live. A useful kitchen begins with the layout, then brings storage, materials and lighting into the same conversation.
A considered starting point
Start with what the
space needs to do.
A kitchen can need a better working arrangement without needing more floor area. Begin by identifying the crowded corners, missing landing spaces and items that never seem to have a home. From there, explore a coordinated direction for cabinetry, appliances and finishes.
Questions worth exploring
- What is difficult about preparing an ordinary meal?
- Which appliances and existing finishes should stay?
- Does the kitchen need seating, more storage, or both?
- Would moving a fixture improve the room enough to justify the added scope?
