Festive Décor Ideas & DIYs
October 23, 2017Home Maintenance Tips on a Budget
October 30, 2017Home décor is a domain which is as dynamic as India’s football team; it keeps on changing and never shows consistency. It is a never ending process largely which is why the general folk pays big bucks just for some pure interior décor advice. Be it kitchen laminate design, living room furniture, bed room aesthetics, laminate for kitchen cabinets, bathroom shelves, photo frames; there is just so much to do around the house.
As they say, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Well, a house isn’t built in a day either if you know what I mean. And kitchen is one space of the house where aesthetics and hygiene adopt paramount importance. Not just for the home maker, a kitchen is a critical element for every member of the family.
People often underestimate how important kitchen is in terms of design. There’s a reason why some of the best laminates in India have started to find a place in contemporary kitchen setups.
Here’s a look at how you can stay in line with the current kitchen trends:
Dark All The Way
- Gone are those days wherein a kitchen is supposed to be all light and sober. We’ve had too much of white, off white and cream, haven’t we?
- On a personal level, I am so very glad contemporary kitchens have sought for colours like bright red, vibrant purple, shiny brown and other similar shades. Such colours complement the overall kitchen laminate design.
- And with smartly placed LED lights, bulbs and tubelights, lighting is never an issue.
Utility is a Priority
- Finally, here’s a room where we don’t tend to show off just as much; but go for utility instead. Every little element in the kitchen is supposed to serve a designated purpose.
- Be it the tiny space on the corner of the kitchen slab or the rack right above the wash basin; every element should be judiciously placed.
- This is where the usage of best laminates in India enters the fray, especially in tight spots.
- Elements like internal S corners, separate fixed vegetable/fruit basket, tray for plates, RO and dustbin section, rolling shutter add to the overall appeal of the kitchen.
Make Way for an Island
- Don’t know what a kitchen island is? Well, Google some images and you’ll fall in love with the concept instantly. A kitchen island is basically a separate slab made specifically for cooking which is separate from the main kitchen slab and away from all other elements; hence the word ‘island’.
- This not only gives essential cooking space but also ensures an aesthetically pleasing appeal. Moreover, an island is the ideal accomplice of a hi-end chimney.
- It frees up ample space on the main slab which can now be used for other important chores.
Slab That Stands Out
- As a home maker, do you often struggle with the amount of light that is present in your kitchen. And no, we’re not talking about natural light there; for in a country like ours, this will almost never be an issue.
- To remedy this, get a very sleek LED light fixed right on top of the slab. This way, you can cosily cook whilst saving light as well. This comes in handy during night time.
- The overall lighting of the kitchen is one the most crucial parts of kitchen laminate design.
Contemporary Sleek Chimney
- If you’re in for an above average sized kitchen and don’t have too small a family; then a contemporary metallic finish chimney is an ideal component to suit yourneeds.
- Sitting right above your cooking area, it will definitely be a sight for sore eyes, a show stopper for your kitchen.
- One thing to remember while picking a chimney – it should be noiseless by all means. This will enhance kitchen laminate design by manifolds.
Piped Gas Line
- Gas cylinders are a thing in the past now. No offence in terms of utility; but it used to be such a downer seeing ugly looking gas cylinders in the centre of the kitchen.
- Luckily, piped gas lines have rescued this aspect. You can simply utilise laminates for kitchen cabinets wherein the pipe line would hide behind the plywood pieces.
