There are a million reasons why you may want to remodel your kitchen. You may want to improve the flow of the space, you may want to increase the value of your home, or you may want to modernize the space. If you’re interested in a modern kitchen, here are five design must-haves:
1. Appliances
Modern appliances are sleek, streamlined, and smart. They are also more eco-friendly than outdated appliances. You can purchase kitchen appliances in packages, but make sure you’re picking the right package. Appliances designed for a five-bedroom home won’t be suitable for a two-bedroom bungalow.
2. Hiding your trash
Kitchens and trash go hand in hand, but you don’t want your trash to be the focal point of your kitchen. Hiding your trash gets rid of unsightly garbage and unfavorable smells. You should put your trash next to your sink and opposite of your dishwasher. You should also consider building a pull out trash can for increased convenience.
3. Pick a statement
The kitchen has a lot of things to look at. There’s appliances, cabinets, flooring, backsplash, islands, tables, chairs, and counters. Pick which of these things you want to be the focal point of the kitchen. Then, base your design off of that one focal point. This way, your kitchen can look as cohesive and stylish as possible.
4. Refined storage
A modern space is a minimalistic space. Refining your storage space can make your space feel more modern and new. It can also help your home feel more organized and relaxing. Pick a space for your storage items and stick to that space.
5. Lighting
A lot of old kitchens have outdated and unattractive lighting. Improving the lighting in your kitchen can improve the ambiance, as well as your light bill. Modern lighting is designed to be more eco-friendly than old options. When picking lighting for your kitchen, you can pick from decorative lighting, task lighting, and ambient lighting.
