I’m not sure how to ask this question exactly! I’m poring over our kitchen designs and trying to work out what configuration of drawers/ cupboards/ pullouts we might need.
Are there specific things that you have close to certain places that work well, or types of drawers/ inserts/ cupboards that work particularly well? Did you put certain items together?
We are extending after years of having a tiny kitchen with a lot of things on the countertops out of necessity. There will be lots of storage (yay) but also the work triangle is a lot bigger so having smaller stuff in the right place will make a difference. After years of everything being in arms reach because the space is small, I’m struggling to get my head around it.
I can see the obvious things like needing to be able to reach the tea towels from the hob, the oven and the sink.
And, are there things that should live on the countertops? I’m deeply seduced by the calm, clutter free counters of kitchen showrooms and I long to get absolutely everything out of sight.
We’re opting mostly for deep drawers under counters, as they seem very practical. But maybe there are good reasons for shelves that I’m not seeing?
I’d really appreciate knowing what layouts work in your kitchen- what logic you used for where to put things- what doesn’t work or is a constant irritation.
