The Basics: Firstly, the kitchen needs to function well for food preparation and cooking. Even a small kitchen, when well designed, can provide a novice home cook or a Michelin starred chef with a good workspace for meal preparation. The key aspects for efficient kitchen design are well known within the design community and include creating a ‘work triangle’ (between your refrigerator, sink, and cook top), providing adequate storage, and ensuring (when possible) a sizeable clear surface for food preparation. But we’re not here to talk about the obvious; We’re here to tell you what takes a modern kitchen design from “it works” to “it rocks!”
