Kitchen Interior Design
How to Design the Kitchen,
the Pantry and the Laundry
The kitchen is a workplace within the
housing, but for the housewife or househusband it’s also a place where to stay
for many hours. If the kitchen counts with a place for eating, it usually ends
up as a meeting place for the family.
How to Design a Kitchen
While designing a kitchen is necessary to
take into account the size of the family, whether the components are right or left-handed,
the height of the housewife or househusband and the suitable working height.
You should always match the height of work surfaces up to users to take care of
their posture; this is achieved by regulating the height of the baseboards.
The kitchen design should try to save efforts
and get a fluid workspace with sufficient freedom of movement. To optimize the
work carried out in a kitchen it’s essential that each job is rationally designed.
To ensure that the work can be done in the shortest possible time, cabinets,
work surfaces and equipment should be located in the proper sequence.
When designing the lighting in the kitchen,
it is important to avoid shadows on the working plane.
The Small Kitchen Design
Actually, the usable working area is more
important than the size of the kitchen, but the fact is that, very often, the
kitchens are too small. None of them should be less than 8 sq. m. If the width
of the kitchen is less than 2.40 m, it may be preferable to arrange the
furniture in just one side or adopting L-shape.
The smaller the kitchen, the more careful the
design. In smaller kitchens it’s important to select clear finishing for both
the ground and the walls.
The Kitchen Pantry
Kitchen pantries should be cool, must count with
easy ventilation and should have sun protection. Of course, they should have
shelves, preferably up until they reach the ceiling.
The Laundry Room
The laundry room is used for washing, as a storage room for cleaning utensils, for ironing and,
sometimes, for sewing. The laundry room must be designed with special attention for
the comfort of work.
