The best arrangements for single wall kitchens

In the past, we have focused on the design details for typical cooking designs: in the form of L, Galera and in the form of U. Today we are going to address one of the most complicated kitcheNS of all: the kitchen of a single or a wall.

The kitchens of a wall take place more frequently in apartments and smaller homes that are designed Using an open space concept. They are also the standard in loft study and style residences. While the traditional cooking triangle may not be available to you, it is possible to design an elegant and functional kitchen design.

Organize your single -wall kitchen

Since its kitchen is carried out in a single wall, it can be boring or smooth quite fast, that is, an entire wall of identical cabinet faces. Then, there is the “function” side of things to consider. While I could invest in a kitchen scooter, so that it closes it from one side of the kitchen to the other while preparing meals, it is better to take into account its kitchen movements when presenting appliances and cabinets. Here are a handful of tips for the design of your kitchen on a wall.

Keep appliances in the same “section”

If your kitchen of a wall is small, this is irrelevant. However, longer kitchens should take into account the “two steps” principle; The idea is that you are never more than two steps from the device that you need below. According to a linear kitchen design, which can be more like three or four steps, but you get the point.

Keep the refrigerator, sink and stove on the same side or the central section of the kitchen, so that you can use them all fluently. Place one or two of lower cabin between them will create the additional counter you need.

Make the texture and finish a priority

As it only has a cabinet wall to look, it can be quite boring. In a smaller kitchen, this is less problems, so an impressive splash plate can be everything you need to add the necessary contrast. In a larger kitchen, think about breaking the monotony of the cabinet with its splash protector, as well as things like glass or inserts of metallic cabinet door, contrasting textures and open shelves. Consider using separate door finishes or styles in the upper and lower cabinets to add interest.

Take the Cabinets to the top

Storage will almost always be a problem in a single -wall kitchen design. For this reason, we recommend taking cabinets to the ceiling.

Ask your contractor if it is possible to eliminate those cumbers’ sofitos to give additional space. In any case, bringing the cabinets to the upper part allows you to maximize the total square feet of the cabinet, keeping the countertops free of unnecessary disorder.

RAS application and appliances

Depending on the appearance you look for, integrated appliances (where the appliance faces coincidence cabinets) can be excessive. However, designing a kitchen with appliances and a built -in refrigerator is an intelligent consideration. This maintains all the faces of the appliances flush with the cabinets, eliminating additional edges and corners that can hang it, or jump to bite it, while navigating the space.

Throw and Island in the mixture

If there is space for this, an island is its best ally in the design of a single wall. Even if there is no space for a large one, a narrow kitchen island offers an additional preparation surface and, depending on the space, it also offers additional storage and seat space. This is also another opportunity to add a different finish or color to the mixture, as we did in the black and white chocolate kitchen.
