Kitchen Remodel–Simplicity Is Key

Posted on February 10, 2019

Kitchen remodeling can be a very complex task, but there are many ways to make it easier and simpler. More than just enabling you to get the job done sooner, simplifying reduces the costs involved in remodeling and may produce more satisfactory results besides. Here are a few ideas on how you can make your upcoming kitchen remodel job a lot simpler.

Invest in high-quality pieces

Investing in high-quality furniture and fixtures now will pay off in terms of trouble-free performance many years down the line. This goes for everything from your kitchen appliances to your cabinets and drawers.

Make plans for an island

An island can be one of the most useful things in your kitchen, but it may also be a bulky, monstrous contraption that just gets in the way without providing any perceivable benefits. When you kitchen remodel, plan your island for maximum functionality and make sure it doesn’t get in your way.

Keep the details to a minimum

You might think that you need a lot of fixtures and accessories to make your kitchen fully functional, but a little goes a long way. Too many features and fixtures just add to the clutter and they can put a damper on your efficiency. Keep it simple and you will have a roomier, airier kitchen that enhances–rather than hinders–your work flow.

Consider maintenance issues

When choosing materials for your countertops, cabinets, and floors always consider maintenance issues associated with specific materials. Natural materials almost always look the nicest, but many of them have textured surfaces that are difficult to clean. Strike a good balance between form and functionality and you will end up with a kitchen that looks good and works well at the same time.

Stick to simple appliances

Finally, keep your appliances simple. You don’t really need a lot to have a fully workable kitchen. Go for solid, reliable pieces that do one thing well, and you will be better able to maximize your kitchen remodel job.
