How to Avoid the Biggest Kitchen Design Mistakes?

Calling Cabinet Kingdom and letting one of our professionals help you, that's how.

Please, share this post and help us help your family, friends, and neighbors avoid these mistakes.

If the kitchen is the heart of the home, you want to make sure yours in good working order. You want it to cater to your needs and be visually appealing for complete culinary harmony. Whether you’re remodeling or just making a few simple updates, the devil is in the details, the saying goes, so design matters. Nailing the right kitchen can be tricky, but knowing what pitfalls to avoid can save you some heartache and hard-earned money. Here are the biggest ones to avoid.

Not Planning or Sticking to Your Budget

Everything decision is contingent upon your budget, so it’s important to plan it ahead of time rather than playing it by ear. Your budget will let you know where to make compromises and what to prioritize. A marble countertop may sound like a great idea, but not if you can’t afford it, and not if it’s at the expense of a dishwasher and refrigerator. So budget for all the necessary components of your project and do your best to stick to it. If you don’t know what your budget should be, these numbers will tell you where to start.

Lack of Layout

This is the big picture, so before you go looking at all the bells and whistles, you’re going to want to make sure the kitchen design actually works for cooking. The “golden triangle”—oven, refrigerator, and sink—should be the focal points of the room if your kitchen space allows for it. Arranging them in the right spots will maximize the efficiency of the space you have available. While this may not seem like a big deal, you’ll immediately feel like things are off if these components are not where they should be.

Minimal Counter Space

Knowing how much counter space you’ll need ahead of time will play a big role in the design. Appliances like sinks, microwaves, and coffeemakers will eat up precious room, so it’s worth factoring how much free space you’ll need to cook. Don’t skimp on space—you’ll need it. If you don’t have enough, getting a kitchen alternative is one solution that can give you more room to work. Materials are also something important to consider. If you have the budget, you can spring for a more high-end counter, but make sure you look into what really suits your needs – not just your aesthetics – or you’ll be kicking yourself later.

Lazy Lighting

Placement and type of kitchen lighting is important. Clearly, you want to see what you’re doing so you don’t accidentally slice a finger on the cutting board or bang your head into a cabinet corner. But what about style? Lighting isn’t one-size-fits-all, so you’re going to want to make sure the lights you use fit the look of your kitchen. Is the kitchen you’re designing modern looking? Consider some sleek recessed lights. Country chic? Small hanging lamps could do the trick. Customizing your lighting will allow you to optimize the functionality and appearance of your kitchen. It’s a win-win.

Following Trends

Remember that ridiculous haircut you had in ninth grade? Chances are you went for that look because it was en vogue. Hopefully by now you’ve developed your own style and your kitchen should surely reflect that – but you don’t want it to quickly to look dated because you jumped on the bandwagon of a trend. Make sure your kitchen has some universal appeal, like neutral walls or tiling, a scenic bay window, and modern appliances. Then you can add your personal flair in a way that’s not quite as permanent—think chalkboard wall paint, lighting pendants, or even shiplap. That way if you resell your house, a tacky kitchen won’t be a dealbreaker.

Tailoring a kitchen to your taste is a big part of defining your home. It’s something that should take planning and research. The good news is you know what you like and, most likely, what you need. Factor that in with learning from others’ mistakes and you’re well on your way to designing a kitchen that is as practical as it is a reflection of you.

Happy Holidays and a Prosperous New Year!!!

Somehow, not only for Christmas,
But all the long year through,
The joy that you give to others
Is the joy that comes back to you;
And the more you spend in blessing
The poor and lonely and sad,
The more of your heart’s possessing
Returns to make you glad. *

Merry Christmas to friends!
Merry Christmas to foes!
The world’s bright with joy, so
Forget all your woes.
The earth’s full of beauty, of
Love and good cheer.
Merry Christmas to all and a
Happy New Year!

Tips for Organizing Your Kitchen / part 2

Last time we shared some ideas to help you keep your kitchen organized, and today we bring you some more. If you would like to share your own ideas please do so here or by email to [email protected]

If you like the functionality of a restaurant kitchen but the aesthetics of a home kitchen, then an open shelve condiment cabinet is definitely the best of both worlds. Take toasters, coffee makers and other small kitchen appliances out of the way and
park them in a strategically located appliance garage.

Glass and enamel baking dishes are heavy and noisy when nested together. Consider designing a shallow drawer for these items and a deeper drawer for lighter metal baking pans that nest more easily.

When asked about their number 1 complaint about their kitchen, most of the consumers indicate insufficient counter space. Two ways to maximize counter space is by installing the microwave under counter and/or installing a dishwasher. This type of microwave drawer is ergonomic for people of different sizes and mobility.

If organizing your kitchen seems like an overwhelming task, consider working with a professional. They can help you prioritize your purge and make sense of any space. When it comes to laying out and designing kitchens for remodels and new construction, hiring a professional from Cabinet Kingdom will be the best money you will ever spend. A good designer can help you ferret through all your options and help you select the components that will deliver the most bang for your hard-earned buck.

Tips for Organizing Your Kitchen / part 1

A well-designed and organized kitchen can save you time, money, and make preparing meals safer and more pleasurable. So, whether you have a small project budget or are planning a complete makeover, there are simple improvements that can make a world of difference.

For immediate improvements consider affordable off-the-shelf drawer inserts such as those from Hardware Resources offered through Cabinet Kingdom, that keep cooking utensils, knifes, and spices well-organized. Remember to purge your drawers and cabinets of unwanted items before starting your project.

There is also a wide variety of off-the-shelf cabinet convenience hardware that can be installed with a few simple tools. Storing dishes below the counter in a drawer is much more ergonomic than above counter. It also makes the dishes more accessible for small children and those with physical disabilities. Consider installing a dish-drawer peg-board system. The pegs nest the dishes so they don’t bump into each other as the drawer is closed.

Store cutting boards on the inside of your cabinet door (remember to reduce the depth of your cabinet shelf). Designate one board for meat while an adjacent butcher-block counter can be reserved for veggies/herbs/aromatics on one side and fruits and bread on the other side. Promote recycling by installing a tandem trash and recycling center that’s convenient to use. This can be done as a retrofit with models that are bolted to the back of the cabinet door.

Make the most of every corner with a lazy susan or a “super susan.” Super susans are spindleless and consist of a rotating disc mounted on the base cabinet shelves (best when the upper shelf is adjustable)— you would be surprised at how much better the storage is without the spindle.
