THE FIRST STEP IS TO CONSIDER HOW YOU USE YOUR KITCHEN:

  • How many people are in your household who use the kitchen? The answer to this question will determine how much use your kitchen cabinets get, and how much traffic there is likely to be in the kitchen at any one time.
  • Do two or more cooks typically work at the same time? If so, you may want extra counter space in your kitchen cabinets and/or an extra sink.
  • Do you entertain frequently - and do you typically have formal or informal gatherings? If you entertain a lot, you may want to open up the kitchen/living room area into a great room that lets you be part of the party while you’re working.
  • What other activities commonly occur in the kitchen? Some houses have a laundry closet in the kitchen. Some people want a wet bar, a breakfast bar or even a desk for writing or computer work included in their kitchen cabinets.
  • Do you have any special kitchen cabinets needs? Is a user exceptionally short or tall, and uncomfortable working at standard-height counters for long periods of time? Do you have a disabled or elderly household member who may have special needs..?

      These are really great tips!

      I think it would be worth mentioning that how a person cooks would also affect the design layout.

      What size of range would be needed, whether or not to include a cooktop, how many ovens and what type of ventilation system would be used such as whether to use a down draft system or a range hood…all of this plays into the design and spacial needs of the kitchen as well.

      It would also determine how large of a sink would be needed if lots of large pots and pans would be used on a daily basis.
