Basic Kitchen Design Tips

There are a number of things to take into account when thinking about a new Kitchen. Here are a few things you may wish to consider, but this list isn't by any means exhaustive.

Cooking - Should you choose a single or a double oven and would an under worktop or an eye level oven suit you best?

Freezing & Refrigeration - how much fridge & freezer space do you really need - 50/50 or 70/30? Perhaps a large fridge and a separate freezer entirely.

Washing - Do you wash by hand or use a dishwasher? How big does your sink need to be?

Wall Units - Need extra storage space? Perhaps tall wall units could be for you.

Choosing The Right Kitchen Worktop

Which kitchen worktop is right for you? There are a number of options and they vary in appearence, durability, maintainence and, of course, price.

Laminate Worktops - Both Durable and excellent value.

Solid Wood Worktops - A Beautiful natural finish but they require more care than other work surfaces.

Quartz Kitchen Worktops - The huge range of interesting colour options makes this ideal for a high end, cutting edge kitchen.

Granite Worktops - Possibly the ultimate work surface - natural, durable and heatproof!
