The kitchen is an essential feature in any home. To help you build a dreamy kitchen that is not only beautiful but also functional, we have noted some critical features that should be considered.
Island benches
Are a very popular design feature in many kitchens – and for good reason. Not only do they offer a stunning design focal point in any kitchen, acting as the heart of the room, they also improve functionality to your space. Island benches create the perfect preparation area in your kitchen and allow your space to flow beautifully and with ease. They also create a beautiful gathering spot for your family and friends when you’re entertaining. Islands allow you to maximise storage which is key in a
hardworking kitchen!
Deep sinks
Add a lot of versatility and style to any kitchen. From farmhouse, top-mounted, to a single or double bowl, there is a huge range to choose from. Deep sinks create functionality, allowing you to cook, clean vegetables or wash dishes, small kids and dogs! A deep sink will be a focal point within the space. They are durable, reliable, and make cleaning dishes an easier process- incredibly handy if you have a family or love to entertain. Deep sinks are the way to go!
Windows
Our amazing team at Premier Traditional Homes have knowledge and experience in creating functional kitchens with feature windows. Feature windows emphasise the natural light and ensure the kitchen space is an enjoyable bright space within your home. Windows allow you to capture the beauty of natural light. From eating breakfast at sunrise, enjoying the soft glow of the morning, to relaxing over dinner with a glass of wine, soaking in the setting sun, windows are key to making the most of the natural light within kitchen spaces.
Tapware
Or as we like to say the jewellery of the kitchen! Tapware is the added little touch that finishes the look of a space. Whether your style is classic, traditional or with a modern twist, tapware within your home and kitchen is an important choice. Consider shiny chrome tapware, a popular choice in more traditional style homes, or brass with its bright yellow-gold finish. Create a bold, opulent and dramatic feature within your kitchen with your choice of tapware.
Lighting
Good lighting is essential within a kitchen. It needs to be both comfortable, to make the space welcoming, and functional to make sure you can see what you’re doing when you’re cooking!
Having a mixture of statement lighting, such as pendants, and more practical down lighting options ensure that your space is both visually inviting and practical.
