Kitchen design fails horrors to avoid

With Halloween upon us, we’ve been thinking about the scariest concept ever… a poorly designed kitchen.

We’ve seen a lot of mishaps over the years, and whilst a kitchen transformation is an exciting experience, we’re here to help you get it right the first time around.

If you’re considering a kitchen renovation, don’t fall into these common pitfalls:

Awkward layout

Big ideas don’t always lend themselves to reality. If you’ve got a small space to work with, you might have to rethink whether you need all the bulky features on your checklist.

Do you need a kitchen island and a dining table? Or can you combine the two to make a space-saving breakfast bar?

Too much in a small space can make the area unwelcoming, which is the last thing a kitchen should be. Sometime less is more.

Our experts can help you think about what you really want from your kitchen to create a practical design you’ll love.

Sticking to a rigid scheme

There’s no one size fits for kitchen design, so you don’t need to stick to a rigid design scheme.

For example, the work triangle might work for some kitchens, but you make the rules for your kitchen.

Functionality is king for your design and we can help you tailor your kitchen to how often you cook and socialise, alongside your personal preferences.

Too much clutter

A messy kitchen can make cooking a chore.

But you don’t need to worry; we can create customised storage solutions and cabinets, designed to keep your space clutter-free.

From concealed compliances to corner units fit to your kitchen’s dimensions, bespoke cabinetry will make your kitchen look more polished and put together.

Poor materials

Choosing cheap materials is a recipe for disaster.

We only use the highest quality materials, from our trusted suppliers, guaranteeing a kitchen that’s built to last.

Opting for a branded appliance, such as from NEFF, ensures you get a functional product that suits your needs and will stand the test of time.

Equally, you want the aesthetics of your kitchen to be maintained. Investing in quality features, such as Birmingham’s own Crofts & Assinder’s handles, will keep your kitchen looking sleek for many years to come.
