CANADIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP AND ITALIAN AESTHETICS AT THEIR FINEST
One of the aspects that make a kitchen truly functional is the appliance layout. Strategically placed appliances help you cook meals faster and more efficiently. Moreover, a well-planned appliance layout contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal of the custom kitchen, ensuring a harmonious kitchen design. But how do you arrange the appliances in your kitchen to achieve that balance of functionality and aesthetic appeal? Read our next blog to find out more.
Invest in stacked integrated ovens to create a sleek and functional aesthetic. Place a series of ovens in a row according to use such as steam ovens, microwaves, and so on. Lastly, make sure they are placed on or around eye level for easy access. Custom kitchen manufacturers, like Nima Kitchens, can tailor the height of the oven according to your preference.
Follow up on the integrated ovens with a concealed cooktop hood to maximize the sleek, modern aesthetic. Choose between ceiling hoods, canopy hoods, or one with downdraft extractors. If your cooktop is next to a wall, conceal the hood within the cabinetry and reap the dual advantages of a streamlined look and additional storage space.
Adding to the integrated ovens and a retractable hood, invest in an integrated refrigerator with a custom panel. A refrigerator is often the largest appliance in the kitchen, and a freestanding one can take up a lot of space. Moreover, it can clash with your kitchen’s design scheme. So choose a bespoke refrigerator that matches your cabinetry.
Oenophiles (wine connoisseurs) must invest in an under-the-counter wine fridge. Make your kitchen the center of attention with an easily accessible wine cooler. Keep it under the counter to maintain symmetry and sleekness of the kitchen. If your cooktop is on the kitchen island, place the wine fridge under the worktop facing the living room so guests can visually admire and access the beverages.
A simple but noticeable way to arrange appliances is to focus on symmetry. For instance, place ovens on either side of a stove or a sink. Keep it aesthetically pleasing yet practical as you can easily access everything during meal prep. Alternatively, consider placing all your tall appliances along one wall to maximize counter space elsewhere in the kitchen.
