Kitchen Remodel
In 2003 I remodelled a kitchen. The brief was to create a lot of packing space, to give an “olde
worlde” feel, and this on a tight budget.
The kitchen had to function well. The old cupboards and appliances were removed and the floor was retiled with terracotta
tiles. New floor to ceiling kitchen cupboards were custom built on site. A paint effect
turned the plain MDF board into cupboards that seem to exist in an ancient old kitchen.
Cupboard door handles were chosen for there elegant antique look.
A pantry and broom cupboard were built into the North East
corner of the kitchen.
Provision was made for the fridge against
the North wall.
As all the plumbing was on the South
side the new kitchen sink and dishwasher were placed here.
The oven, hob and extractor fan were placed along the West wall. This placing, in
a square kitchen floor plan, follows the classic kitchen triangle rule. The three
points of the triangle are the sink, refrigerator and stove/oven. A good work
flow is achieved as the cook can move unimpeded between these three points.
Lighting the work space is very important.
The ceiling was worked off neatly with cornicing.
I hope you enjoyed the slideshow.
