When you're planning a family kitchen there are many factors to consider however practicality is top of the list. Take a look at this checklist to find out how to design a space that works best for you and your family.
Make space for a kitchen table
If you have space available, a kitchen table will be a great help if you have a young family. This is great for family mealtimes but also for homework, crafts and social time together. If you are tight on space another option is to add seating to the end of an island or a breakfast bar.
Encourage tidiness
As a busy family it is worth adding some drawer organisers and storage to keep your kitchen tidy and clutter free. Schuller have a variety of wooden drawer organisers, cutlery trays and drawer storage cubes available. This way everyone can help with tidying up and will be clear on where everything goes.
Clear the decks
Keeping your work surface clear is not only safe and practical but also hygienic. Adding a rail system to your wall keeps kitchen utensils out of reach from little ones and ensures your work surfaces are free for preparation and cooking. This also creates room for cooking together as a family.
Organise your cupboards
As a family, sometimes meal times can be rushed and you have to whip up a meal quickly. Keeping your cupboards and pantry organised helps make this easier and Schuller's pull out larder if the perfect addition to your kitchen.
