KITCHEN DESIGN EXPERTS IN VIRGINIA
Kitchen design is, in its purest form, the process of combining surfaces, appliances, and design elements into a beautiful and functional layout that works for cooking, socializing, and living. A professional kitchen designer can walk the tightrope between function, such as storage space and appliances, and form, such as the decorative touches that bring warmth and personality to the room. Without proper kitchen design, your kitchen will become painfully utilitarian. You can spot a poorly-designed kitchen a mile away because it has no soul to it, no charm. When you work with Capitol Design Build, you can be sure that your kitchen will be lively, unique, and still retain all the important functionality you would expect from such a central room in your home.
THE FIVE TRADITIONAL KITCHEN LAYOUTS
While kitchen design leaves much room for creativity, the general layout usually falls into one of five options, detailed below. We can help you decide on the best option that naturally fits your home.
- L-Shaped Kitchen:
- L-Shaped kitchens leave plenty of room for a cook to work while also giving a very open feel because there are only two walls being used for storage and appliances.
- U-Shaped Kitchen:
- With a U-shaped kitchen, cooks will have a large amount of storage and counter space, surrounded on 3 sides by these options with one side left open to another living area.
- G-Shaped Kitchen:
- These are the most enclosed model, just like the U-shaped kitchen but with extra storage and walls that cover part of the last remaining open space. These are incredible for room, but not for an open floor plan.
- Single-Wall Kitchen:
- These kitchens are great for small homes, as all the appliances and storage are in one straight line. They are also amazing options for people who want an expansive feel without storage or islands out in the middle of the room.
- Corridor Kitchen
- Just as they sound, corridor kitchens are like a hallway, with counters and storage on each side. Sometimes known as a galley, these kitchens can offer a surprising amount of space with stacked storage.
IMPORTANT TIPS FOR PLANNING YOUR KITCHEN DESIGN
Picking the layout of your kitchen is just the first step; all the details are what separates a decent kitchen from an incredible one. Where are you going to have outlets and all your countertop appliances, such as toasters and coffee machines? Do you want to have seating like an island counter area or have people eat in the dining room instead? What direction will you have the cabinet doors swing to eliminate awkward angles? Small things like these that many designers forget are at the forefront of our minds always, so you are sure to get a kitchen that checks all the boxes, even the ones you didn’t know needed checking.
