Creating A Fabulous Kitchen With Bay Area Cabinets

By Anita Ortega


For chefs to perform at their best, they are always in a professional kitchen, properly designed to meet their needs. A good layout with the proper storage is necessary in any kitchen. Below, find things to consider when creating a magnificent kitchen with Bay Area cabinets, which will beautify the space and increase the value of the home.

Start off by imagining a space. Look at different magazines, websites and even visit some showrooms. Understand the personal style and taste, as well as needs. An up-to-date kitchen is one that will make the space that much more functional and practical, using the latest in the industry to do so.

Then comes the plan. It is imperative to measure thoroughly the perimeter of the room while taking so many things into consideration. There has to be plenty of storage in order for this room to be beautiful and practical. There's nothing worse than cluttered counters that interfere with food preparation, and keep the room looking messy. Cluttered counters also make cleaning that much more difficult as every item must be lifted and moved aside to be wiped down.

This is the reason why much of the design plans must focus on storage. Modern-day kitchens require so much storage because of the numerous items that are housed within them. There are prepackaged foods in cans, boxes, plastic wrapping, and so on which need to be put away. In addition to that, there are the numerous kitchen gadgets and a small electrical appliances that help us prepare foods quickly. As such, maximizing storage space is the key to creating a fabulous kitchen.

Storage solutions of all kinds exist today that never did in the past. Before, it was all about straightforward shelves, and possibly a lazy Susan. Today, it's all about pullout trays and shelves that avoid people from having to dive into their cupboards. This way, it makes no difference if important items that are often used in the kitchen are placed in the front or in the back of a cabinet.

In other words, there's no need to stretch to find a plastic container lid, as all that has been resolved. Therefore, it is imperative to thoroughly calculate the specific needs of a household with regards to the items they have and how they can be neatly put away. When things are organized, a household runs better, with much time saved and without any stress.

Next comes the layout. Decide on whether it could be a complete gut or a simple renovation with updating in mind. A complete gutting of the rooms enables for the relocation of the major components of the kitchen, meaning the sink, stove, and fridge. These should be in a triangle formation to reduce the amount of walking, and making things within reach for faster and easier food preparation.

Understanding kitchen design is crucial to creating a spectacular layout. Far too many people redesign these rooms on their own without enough experience and end up with less than favorable results. For example, many will create a kitchen along one wall, which is a huge mistake. Corner cabinets add lots of storage space. Others consider using open shelves, which are beautiful, but not for everyone, nor for every kitchen.

In addition to all this, one should always take into consideration their particular lifestyle before choosing the actual cabinets, tiles, finishes and colors. Highly polished materials require higher maintenance, and that's not for everyone. There are also special considerations to be taken with regards to materials of the cabinets, as there are many to choose from.
