Proyecto casa unifamiliar en Bellaterra Disponer de espacio resulta un gran lujo y ofrece la posibilidad de imaginar múltiples distribuciones. En estos casos, un proyecto de interiorismo trabaja diferentes opciones para encontrar la que mejor se ajusta a las necesidades y peferencias del cliente y a su vez, sacar el mejor partido del espacio. Nuestras actuaciones en esta vivienda de reciente construcción se han centrado en transformar la planta baja en un único espacio conjunto para sala de estar, comedor, cocina y recibidor. Distribuido por el mismo mobiliario, en buena parte de diseño propio, el espacio interior se asoma al exterior a través de los grandes ventanales y puertas correderas que lo conectan con el exterior. Precisamente en esta conexión entre el interior y el exterior hemos participado con la instalación de una coraza motorizada sobre los grandes ventanales superiores para poder calibrar la entrada de luz solar del exterior. Así mismo, nos hemos encargado del ajardinamiento de una parte del exterior donde hemos montado una cubierta remobible con una parte motorizada, ganando espacio habitable para los meses del buen tiempo. Partíamos de una cocina cerrada con falso techo para esta y el recibidor. También teníamos una chimenea central en la sala de estar que servía de separador con la zona de comedor. Nuestra concepción del espacio como un único conjunto abierto requería prescindir de todos estos elementos. Si hacemos el recorrido desde el recibidor, encontramos un mueble distribuidor a dos alturas que sirve de apoyo y almacenamiento, además de parcelar visualmente el espacio. Con un gran ventanal a mano derecha, tenemos aceso directo al conjunto del comedor y sala de estar dejando, detrás del mueble, el conjunto de la cocina. La cocina consta de dos grandes islas con almacenamiento y una de ellas habilitada para servir de comedor diario. A su vez, el conjunto de nevera y horno queda empotrado en la pared trasera que conecta las dos islas. Sobre la cocina hemos reinstaado un volumen a modo de falso techo para la instalación de luminarias y aire acondicionado. El comedor parte de una mesa de diseño propio, con sobre de piedra y patas de madera que esconden espacio de almacenaje. Con las sillas y las luminarias, resulta un conjunto central que ayuda a distribuir el espacio y zona ideal para reunirse con amigos y familiares. La sala de estar, con tres piezas básicas, reproduce el mismo estilo que la mesa comedor y el resto de mobiliario de diseño propio. Des de la sala de estar, el impacto de la coraza con lamas motorizadas sobre los ventanales superiores es evidente. De este modo, es posible modular el impacto lumínico exterior y añadir una mejora estética al conjunto del inmueble. Des del exterior la fachada queda marcada por la horizontalidad señalada por las lamas. Además encontramos un velador en dos partes especialmente pensado para hacer vida en el exterior durante los meses de buen tiempo. Joan Llongueras y Coblonal Arquitectura se han encargado del proyecto de interiorismo y la reforma de esta casa unifamiliar.

Curtain Call

My clients have a fabulous updated kitchen. The cabinets have staineless steel fronts, the walls are an ivy green and the woodwork is white. She wanted to introduce a warm print to soften the lines, and chose this fabulous floral. We fabricated box pleat valances with a shaped hem and green tassel trim

Color, texture, materials and layers of personality take this space to the next level. Nothing is expected from the textured wall coverings to the industrial pendants to the custom steel and glass doors. A black leathered countertop grounds the space in the center kitchen of this fabulous mid century modern home. The adjoining great room is colorful, warm and inviting -- with just as much personality as the rest of the house

Kitchen with Stainless Steel Cabinets and Medium Hardwood Floors 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!
