Is it any surprise that your kitchen can now be controlled by your phone or that you could install a fridge that talks to you?
With technology constantly advancing, the smart kitchen is becoming increasingly popular, and we can see why!
By utilising the latest technology and design features, the smart kitchen makes cooking and organisation even easier.
Where should I start?
If you want to bring some aspects of a smart kitchen into your design, you need to go back to basics.
To maximise the effectiveness of installing high-quality appliances and gadgets, you will need to make sure the layout of your kitchen lends itself to the different areas you will need while you cook.
The work triangle is a proven method of choosing your layout to make sure your fridge, hob/oven and sink are placed in a triangular layout.
This is said to be the best layout to give you the perfect amount of space between each area of the kitchen and can work for big and small kitchens alike.
This layout works for smart kitchens as you have already split your kitchen into three sections, meaning it will be easy to place new equipment in the right area.
Get connected
You want to work smarter, not harder. So, why wouldn’t you want to turn on your coffee machine from your phone, or let the oven tell you when dinner is ready?
With the use of apps from leading appliance manufacturers, such as Neff Home Connect or Miele Connected Home with Miele at Home, controlling your oven when you are away from home has never been easier.
This kind of technology allows you to connect with your appliances and control them via WiFi or even voice control.
This can be a great way to get your kitchen to do the hard work for you.
Smart doesn’t always mean tech
If you don’t feel ready to go digital, you can still have a smart kitchen.
Having a smart kitchen isn’t just about having the best technology. Smart design also plays a large role…
You need to carefully consider which storage solutions you opt for.
Your pantry and breakfast cabinets can provide enough space to always keep your kitchen looking clutter free and tidy, making them the perfect hideaway for toasters and coffee machines.
