Designing your Los Angeles kitchen, by a design and build firm
Remodeling a kitchen is a significant project that requires thoughtful planning to ensure the space is both beautiful and functional. Before diving in, here are five essential things to consider:
01
Choose Your Appliances First
Your appliances play a central role in your kitchen’s layout and functionality. Whether you’re opting for a professional-grade range or a sleek, built-in refrigerator, it’s crucial to select your
appliances before finalizing your design. The dimensions, power requirements, and ventilation needs of your appliances will dictate aspects of your kitchen layout, such as cabinet placement
and countertop space.
02
Good Lighting is Essential
Lighting can make or break your kitchen’s functionality and ambiance. Incorporate a mix of task lighting (under-cabinet lights for food prep), ambient lighting (overhead fixtures to illuminate the space), and accent lighting (pendants or sconces to add character). Consider how natural light interacts with your layout and complement it with adjustable fixtures for a dynamic, well-lit space day or night.
03
Don’t Forget About Form and Function
While aesthetics are important, your kitchen should also work efficiently. Think about the “kitchen work triangle” (the relationship between your sink, stove, and refrigerator) to ensure smooth workflow. Additionally, maximize storage with pull-out drawers, lazy Susans, and vertical
pantry solutions to keep your space organized without compromising style
04
Plan, Plan, Plan
The success of any kitchen remodel is rooted in meticulous planning. From the placement of outlets to the type of countertop materials, every detail matters. Consult with experts early on to avoid costly changes down the road. At ENE Builders, we guide you through every step, ensuring nothing is overlooked
05
Think About the Future
Your kitchen remodel should not only reflect your current needs but also anticipate future ones. Are you planning to host large gatherings, or will your household grow? Durable materials,
flexible layouts, and timeless designs can ensure your kitchen remains functional and stylish for years to come
