With cities increasingly populated and few housing options, apartments and houses with compact designs are becoming a reality. Consequently, essential rooms, such as kitchens, have a reduced space, which demands greater planning from their residents when it comes to furnishing and choosing their appliances.
A planned kitchen can be a good option for those who want to use all spaces in a functional way, which ranges from the arrangement of furniture to the choice of appliances. With that in mind, we have separated 3 tips on how to make better use of spaces in this environment, in addition to options for functional appliances that will make your life easier.
Use your walls
The vacant spaces on the kitchen walls can be filled with niches, shelves or even hooks, making access to some items more practical, in addition to helping with kitchen organization and space optimization. Another option is to use cabinets that go up to the ceiling, occupying a space that would, in many cases, only serve to accumulate dust.
Plan the best place for your electrets
Planning is also essential when choosing the layout of your appliances. The models that are built-in, stand out, for making good use of every inch of the furniture, as is the case with cooktops and electric ovens of compact size. In addition, give preference to the arrangement of your appliances in a perfect way, avoiding that opening doors or drawers hinder your use.
Choose appliances that you will actually use
Will a microwave make a difference in my daily life? Will I really use the toaster? These are some questions that we need to ask ourselves when thinking about our appliances, considering that, with each new purchase, it is a new space that we need to have in the kitchen to store them. Therefore, it is important to choose functional products that add practicality to your routine.
Check out some appliances that can add functionality to your day to day:
