Kitchenette

Mayflower Construction Group

This large home had a lot of empty space in the basement and the owners wanted a small-sized kitchen built into their spare room for added convenience and luxury. This brand new kitchenette provides everything a regular kitchen has - backsplash, stove, dishwasher, you name it. The full height counter matching backsplash creates a beautiful and seamless appeal that adds texture and in general brings the kitchen together. The light beige cabinets complement the color of the counter and backsplash and mix brilliantly. As for the apron sink and industrial faucet, they add efficiency and aesthetic to the design.

Reforma Integral MC

Studio Nucli (Anteriormente C-Interiorismo)

La cocina se montó con muebles de melamina en combinación de blanco y gris, con un estante en madera color negro. La encimera es de granito en tonos grises; los tirados color negro para una apertura más cómoda de los cajones y los electrodomésticos sin panelar para conseguir el look industrial de este espacio. La cocina a su vez está iluminada con perfil led tanto en techo como bañando el aplacado de granito. El suelo de la cocina es gres porcelánico rectificado. El fregadero lo escogimos del material Silgranit para que pueda ser en color gris piedra y quede más integrado en la encimera, también posee escurridor incorporado para aprovechar la esquina de la cocina. Esta cocina tiene un plus que es la barra para desayunar, para diferenciar y darle un aspecto especial a esta zona se escogió un granito negro envejecido que forma parte del salón también. La cocina es cerrada para evitar los olores en el salón pero con una mampara de vidrio, de manera que se mantiene la continuidad de los espacios y permite el ingreso de luz.

Mereway Light Grey and Tyrolean Blue Kitchen

Alexander Kitchens

This kitchen is a recent installation from the Mannings Heath area and has been designed by Aron from our Worthing showroom. The kitchen is another great example of open plan design, with a breakfast bar and seating area making the most of the generous space available for this kitchen. To achieve the desired shaker look in this kitchen the Charnwood door from British manufacturer Mereway has been used in light grey and Tyrolean blue colours. The Charnwood door uses a defined shaker profile which teamed with a smooth matt finish in one of sixteen shades creates an impactful shaker door. To create an open and sociable space a Tyrolean blue island and breakfast bar have been incorporated in the centre of the kitchen. In one run a wine bottle holder and semi-integrated dishwasher have been incorporated using light grey Mereway furniture and in the other appliance housing has been used facilitate built-in appliances.

Kitchen with Granite Splashback and Grey Benchtop Design Ideas

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning your kitchen design. Where do you even start? Gathering some inspiration in a photo gallery is always a good starting point, as looking at different kitchen designs often brings up ideas you haven’t even thought of yet.

Browse Photos of Kitchen Designs for Inspiration and Collect Your Ideas

You can browse through photos of all kinds of kitchen styles, layouts and sizes on Houzz to get started before jumping into any design software or contacting a local professional for help. Here’s a few considerations to keep in mind when planning your kitchen.

1. What Makes a Good Kitchen Design, and Why is it Important?

For starters, you want to find a balance between aesthetics and function. You may have heard of the ‘kitchen work triangle’, which refers to the space between your fridge, sink and stove. You want everything within easy reach when you’re working in the kitchen and look beautiful at the same time. It’s a good idea to take note of both when browsing our photo gallery.

2. Consider Your Space to Determine Your Kitchen Layout

Firstly, consider the space you have, and the limitations that come with it. Do you have a small kitchen and need to maximise your workspace and storage? Can you allow yourself some more space and a big island with seating? Are you designing your kitchen from scratch or renovating an existing design? Which appliances do you already own and what are their measurements? Are there windows you need to take into consideration when planning cabinets? How do kitchen, living and dining areas connect? Depending on your space and needs, you want to use a shape that suits you. U, G, or L-shaped kitchen, with or without island or peninsula? Know your dimensions, plan cabinetry carefully and consider the placement of your appliances. You don’t want to end up with a finished design, only for your significant other to question where the fridge is supposed to go. Consider from the start where your fridge, oven, microwave and sink goes to save yourself from starting again from scratch - remember the kitchen work triangle! You also want to plan the layout of your cabinets. Maybe you’re planning for a pantry and can do with less storage space in your kitchen, so that your design can be one without upper or lower cabinets for a different look. A corner cabinet can be a smart storage solution if you want to keep the look clean and simple.

3. Decide on a Kitchen Style, But Don’t Forget Practicality

You want the style of your kitchen to reflect your personality and taste. We have curated a large array of kitchen styles here at Houzz, from traditional to contemporary to transitional and everything in between. Consider what your cooking style is for a start - Italy is known for its cuisine, so italian kitchen designs are generally popular. Also consider ergonomics - depending on how much time you spend in your kitchen, the height of your counters can make a big difference to your overall health. You also want to consider colour and finishes of cabinets, countertops and splashbacks. Which colour do you want your cupboards to be? Simple, timeless white or rather making a statement in black? Maybe rather a rustic wood? Also consider the colour of your floor - if you have dark floors, you may want to keep cabinets lighter. You could also go for an all-white look and choose black appliances for contrast. Once you know which style you fancy, don’t forget how you will be using the space. You want to keep cooking in mind, as well as how easy to clean and maintain the space will be. How many cooks do you need to accommodate? Do you have kids around? How much storage do you need? Maybe you want to go for open shelves rather than cabinets and allow for easy reach of key items you use when cooking. Again - remember the triangle! Lastly, choose lighting that both enhances the look of your kitchen as well as your cooking performance, providing light in all the right places.

4. Be Conscious of Your Budget

No matter what you plan for your kitchen design, cost is always a big factor. Be sure to plan with your budget in mind. It may make more sense to go for a modular kitchen design rather than custom build. You can save a lot of money if you get at least 3 estimates from professionals before locking in the job. And don’t forget to allow a 20% buffer for emergencies. Once you are ready to hire a pro, our directory will help you find one, no matter where you are. So whether you're looking for an Interior Designer in Melbourne or an Architect in Sydney, you can be sure to find a qualified expert for the job!
