A Behind the Scenes Look at Luxury Kitchen Designs
Not sure what features you need to really wow? Luxury kitchen designs contain hundreds of disparate elements coming together to tell a sumptuous story. We’ll explain why you should put in these elements and what they add to your luxury kitchen.
If you’re in a hurry, here’s the quick list:
- Open layout
- Smart home devices
- Hidden appliances
- Unique countertops
- Dedicated storage
- Bespoke cabinetry
Open layout
It’s very popular and desirable to open up the space between the kitchen and living areas. This provides a lifestyle flow that encourages conversation. It can also make smaller spaces look larger overall. Particularly popular for entertaining, an open floor plan prevents lulls in conversation as everyone can remain a part of the food prep experience. Create a sense of openness by removing walls and ensuring islands, cabinets and worktops complement the wider architecture of the home.
Smart home devices
Technology can improve your kitchen utility. Obviously, home assistants like Google Home and Alexa are popular. But there are kitchen-specific smart home devices that can enhance your luxury kitchen designs with their time-saving benefits. Think of gadgets like this automatic pan stirrer or an automatic reordering system. Even small smart touches can increase the premium feel of your kitchen.
Hidden appliances
Camouflaged fridge freezers are nearly ubiquitous these days. But there are other clever ways to hide your smaller appliances. NV Kitchen & Bath suggests, “Appliance garages can fit well into your kitchen through a flip-up hatch. This will not take a significant amount of counter space. Remove countertop mess and hide your appliances with the use of an appliance garage. You can hide all coffee makers, toasters, Blender, under this garage-door-like filing cabinet. Then you will not need to move your appliances when using them.” Tuck trash cans and recycling bins behind cabinet doors too.
Unique countertops
Firstly, don’t feel like you need to stick with the conventional. Brillant luxe kitchens usually have standout materials. When thinking about your countertops, why not try something different like:
- Wood with a living edge
- Waterfall butcher block
- Graystone
- Onyx
- Glass mosaic
- Quartz
- Cement
Dedicated storage
At Baruchi, we design for life. So, your kitchen activities will define your storage needed. Are you a coffee lover? Maybe you want a pull-out barista station with all the trimmings. Your storage needs to compliment your lifestyle. Good Housekeeping agrees, “Find ways to make your drawers work for you. Carve out spaces to hold your most-used utensils, baking supplies, and spices. In this case, an ice cream-obsessed family dedicated an entire drawer to their sundae-making essentials.”
Custom cabinetry
We think that custom cabinets set the tone for the whole kitchen remodeling project. And that’s why we include bespoke cabinetry in so many of our designs. By having cabinets built, you can ensure they have the right dimensions and suit your style tastes perfectly. In our experience, buying off the shelf just doesn’t have the same luxury feel.
So, why not choose us for your next project? We have a range of packages for every kitchen project.
