The Kitchen-The Most Important Room
The Heart of the Home
Here’s a residential “thought experiment” for you. Think about your home and how you and your family uses it. It could be just you and your spouse or a large family. Where do you spend the most time? Which area gets the most traffic? Or, if you had to pick one room that you feel most comfortable in which one would it be? Chances are the answer to all of these questions is the kitchen
Lifestyle influences
Much of the importance of this room seems to depend on the size of the kitchen, the family, and on lifestyle. But one thing is certain, the days of a separated, utilitarian cooking space are over. During the past two decades, newer homes have been designed with kitchens designated as living spaces, so these rooms have became larger, better equipped, and better designed to accommodate family and friends as an additional space for work and entertaining.
Although COVID is having some influence on open floor designs, the trend is still for kitchens to be open spaces which flow into other rooms, yet remain separate in their function. These newer, larger, more accommodating kitchens now have space for large tables and islands and are planned to create a natural flow for those coming and going. In addition, much more thought is being given to the Universal Design elements of a modern kitchen which enables ‘all’ members of the family to use the function and features of a kitchen to their fullest.
