Renovation design open kitchen should pay attention

The open kitchen breaks the limitations of traditional kitchens and extends into our lives with a new concept of home life. For young people after 80 years, the open kitchen is not only stylish and beautiful, but also an important place for leisure, entertainment and emotional communication. In recent years, with the concept of simple decoration deeply rooted in people's hearts, open kitchens are also popular among young owners.

Although the open kitchen integrates life into the kitchen, it also has some shortcomings. After all, the kitchen is a smoky place. Therefore, the owner should carefully consider and rationally arrange and ensure the use of the kitchen in order to prevent the whole room from becoming irritated when he enjoys the pleasure in the kitchen. Therefore, professionals propose that young owners, in the light of the shortcomings of open kitchens, should consider the following aspects in the decoration design:

Design: beautiful and practical

The open kitchen is designed to be connected to the living room. The owner can watch TV while cooking and the whole kitchen is clear. Therefore, the pots, pans, bottles, and jars in the kitchen cannot naturally be exposed. There is a good, well-integrated kitchen cabinet that allows the clutter of life in the kitchen. Designer Wu Gong suggested that the owner should be able to set aside space for “upgrading” when designing, such as adding ovens, small refrigerators and other items after leaving a space.

Material: convenient and durable

With the increasing number of apartment houses, the open kitchen has become an upstart after 80s. And these people have almost the same personality. They are pursuing simple fashion, but they are afraid of cumbersome and complex, especially cleaning, and the open kitchen will undoubtedly become the dual focus of the home improvement process. Designer Wu Gong said that the open kitchen in the selection of the best anti-slip waterproof and easy to clean as a starting point, should not pave solid wood flooring, because the solid wood floor is susceptible to deformation caused by heat, gaps are also easily stained with oil. In addition, the material of the kitchen utensils is preferably made of metal or wood which is not easy to absorb fumes. It is not recommended to use plastics, cloths, and other products to easily absorb oil.

Function: Ventilation

The ventilation of the kitchen is very particular. In general, the southern region has a lot of southeast winds from spring to autumn. If the open kitchen is in the upper position, smoke smells back into the house. This type of location is generally not recommended for open kitchens. If open kitchens are used, the hood and exhaust fan power must be enhanced. This can, to a certain extent, compensate for airflow problems. At the same time, Chinese people use rice cookers, microwave ovens, and other appliances in addition to cooking dishes. It is recommended that one or two suction fans be installed near the top of the ceiling to ensure that the household air is fresh.
