 Today's Kitchens and Baths are no longer merely designed for efficiency: they have become
paramount to a home's comfort and style. In addition with the Kitchens as a focal point (of
the home) good design means the room must be both functional and a pleasure to be in, while reflecting the "feel" of the rest of the house. Dollar smart homeowners know that in cost versus value surveys Kitchens and Baths yield a very high
return on the original investment.
Will a professionally designed kitchen cost more?
No, it should actually be more cost efficient to use a professional to design your Kitchen. A professional can deliver a functional design perfectly suited to your family while respecting your budget and wishes.
Regardless of the feeling you want to create in your Kitchen, the traditional feel of hearth and home or the clean lines of contemporary design a professional designer should be able to give you the look you wish to create. In addition to giving your
Kitchen the ambiance you are after a professional Kitchen designer should be able to design a functional and orderly floor plan which utilizes smart storage.
Today's Kitchens incorporate a hierarchy of focal points. These visual elements are designed to enhance and not compete with each other: they are part of a "whole."
Before you even decide to meet with a professional Kitchen designer your first step is to organize your ideas about your kitchen and put them on paper. Then you must define your life style and your storage needs. Cutting out pictures can be very
helpful (to express your ideas). The old saying a picture is worth a thousand words is very accurate.
The classic "work triangle" with the refrigerator, sink and stove forming points of unobstructed traffic patterns is no longer the rule of thumb. The concepts of the working zones allow much more individualized, workable floor plans. This
is especially true when there is more than one cook working in the kitchen at the same time.
