MORE THAN PREPARING FOOD, THE KITCHEN IS A SPACE TO SOCIALIZE

Since ancient times, the kitchen has been the place where food has always been prepared at home. In past decades it remained hidden and was the least valued and discreet area of ​​a home, no one was invited to the kitchen. Over time, its main use evolved to become the place where a large part of the family’s activities take place today, including cooking.

The design of a kitchen, along with its decoration, are the starting points for organizing the rest of the spaces in a home, the design trends, as well as the available square footage, also determines the style, the appliances and the other elements that will come together to make up the kitchen.

Not long ago, open kitchens began to connect with the dining room and then the main room or living room. Today that extension has reached the balcony or terrace area, where it has even been modified to allow space for a grill or BBQ area that can also include a bar.

In other words, we are witnessing the transformation of the conventional kitchen into a large social space where the task of preparing food is a reason for family and friends to gather.

Direct and indirect lighting plays an important role.

A kitchen flooded with natural light will always be a space that generates tranquility, while also optimizing the use of electrical power. Light colors where white continues to predominate are joined by materials with natural finishings, especially steel, aluminum and glass, which combined create a sense of balance and in turn provide a pleasant atmosphere where everyone wants to be immersed.

The breakfast nook or auxiliary dining room should not be missing and its design style should also rhyme with the other elements of the kitchen, even with the nostalgic fashion of returning to the non-embeddable appliances, that preserves the essence of a design to be appreciated in all its forms and faces.

THE OPEN KITCHEN IS PREFERRED.

How to organize it? That depends a lot on the interior design of each property and the possibilities of modifying that particular space. It also influences the vision that is to be reached for there and the routines of those who inhabit the house. Do you cook a little, do you cook a lot? Do you eat outside?
