Brisbane kitchens, like most kitchens in
the developed world, represents the heart of every home. For the most part,
this is where we perform the most essential task of life in the world, which is
cooking.
When we
transform raw elements of the earth and invoke the powers of fire, air, water
and earth itself, we perform the sacred ritual cooking which is essential to us
and our lives. The kitchen where we do this becomes a sacred place – the reason
why we put so much emphasis on our kitchenware and the interior design.
There
are some ideas swirling around that suggest the makings of an ideal and perfect
looking kitchen worthy of the things we do inside it. Here are some of them.
Lighting
The
main practical object of the use of lighting in your kitchen is to brighten up
the space and make it easier for you to find things you need. It also helps
building the environment that allows you to navigate around.
Adding
lighting to aesthetics can up the level of vibes in your kitchen space. You can
add LED lights under your cabinets and some pendant lights to add ambience.
Dinettes and breakfast nook
Breakfast
nooks are good additions to the kitchen space, the place where we start our day
right while enjoying a quick bite or a hot cup of coffee. These are typically
built in corners or near windows in our kitchen.
Dinettes
and nooks are convenient to have especially during house events. This is one
perfect spot to converse with our guests. It can also be used as a bar table, a
place for food and drinks in a buffet.
Customized cabinets
Through
effective cabinetry, storage organization is easily done. With custom-made
kitchen cabinets, everything will be in place. Most modern interior designs are
now suggesting the use of customized cabinets.
One
reason is that this maximizes space in the kitchen. It also helps to avoid
clutter because all kitchen materials are stored in their respective cabinets.
Industrial
grade kitchenware / quartz worktops
When you have
stainless steel kitchenware equipments, count it as an investment because it
can last for more years to come even under massive messy use. This is the kind
of equipment that is scratch-resistant and resists stains. The smooth surface
makes them less hassle to maintain.
Quartz
is not the most common of worktop material, and very expensive. However, it is
a non-porous material and has smooth surface texture that works against most
stains. This is one area bacteria cannot thrive.
The island
Into
all this is the installation of an island, the ultimate multitasking space. A
work zone and social hub, the island provides additional work surfaces and can
also include a breakfast bar. You can make it work harder by incorporating
sockets for anything that needs power in small packets.
Aside
from being the ultimate multi-tasking space, the island can also delineate the
kitchen zone without cutting it off, which is a big plus if you‘d like to
socialize with guests while cooking.
