#Functional Kitchen

Here’s five things I knew I wanted to include when designing our new kitchen ✨ 🗑️ Integrated bin - we wanted our kitchen to flow seamlessly with no open bin or smells 🍞 Corner pantry - we didn’t have space for a separate pantry room but wanted the organisation of one 🫙Island storage - A growing family needs more space for the future, we saved a couple cupboards for when we planned to have children 🚰 Double butler sink - both practical and a focal point ⏲️ Two single ovens - we wanted to have more cooking space for hosting and again for a growing family needs Let me know what your essentials were/are? Have a lovely Tuesday! Sienna xxx #kitchen #homeinspo #home #kitchendesign #mykitchen #homedesign #reno #kitchenremodel

I’ve learned so much about what really works (and what doesn’t) in a kitchen. I definitely know myself and my habits better now. Looking back, I think we did an okay job with the space we had, but if I could do it all over again… there are a few things I’d definitely add this time around: 🚪 Pocket doors – to hide the mess or clutter when life gets busy. Out of sight, out of mind — and suddenly the kitchen feels calm again. 🍽️ Two dishwashers – hear me out! One for clean, one for dirty. No more constantly unloading just to fill it right back up. Total game-changer for families or anyone who cooks a lot. 🔌 Docking drawer – a built-in charging station for phones, tablets, and devices so the kitchen island stays clean and clutter-free. Because tech belongs inside the drawer, not all over the counter. ☕ Appliance closet – where everything is plugged in, assembled, and ready to use. Coffee maker, blender, toaster — all hidden but 100% functional. If you’re planning a kitchen remodel or dreaming about a future kitchen renovation, here’s my biggest tip: design for the way you actually live. Beautiful finishes are nice, but functionality and smart storage will make you fall in love with your kitchen every single day.

A good functional kitchen is EVERYTHING. When designing this space I knew I wanted to create a beautiful space BUT extremely functional. A few tips when thinking through your space: 1. Lots of space between your island and counter! I wanted to have enough space to have all the appliances opened and still allow my littles to drive their little scooters through 😅 2. LOTS of trash. I have a total of 6 trash cans between my kitchen & butler pantry. 3. Appliance cabinets. I don’t care how pretty your appliances are they look like clutter. 4. DOUBLE dishwashers! Next to the kitchen sink ideally. No putting away dishes you use every day! From one dishwasher to the next:) 5. Panelled appliances. The ultimate upgrade! 6. LOTS of drawer space! I’m obsessed with the push to open hardware. 7. Accent lighting. Plan ahead for lighting! It’s so much easier and cheaper to include if you plan ahead.

Dream kitchen organizing goals. Keeping all your small kitchen appliances in one place makes cooking SO much easier because everything is easy to reach. This cabinet is one of my favorite parts of my kitchen. Hands down. When I design my client's kitchens, I like to create zones to keep everything organized, like you see with this small appliance garage. If having better kitchen storage and organization is on your wish list this year, make sure to save and share this for later. ➡️AND be sure to comment KITCHEN to download my FREE Kitchen Planning Guide to help you with the first BIG decisions you need to make with your kitchen remodel. #kitchen #kitchengoals #kitchenorganizer #kitchendesign #kitchenstorage #kitchenstorageideas

We love every detail of this shaker kitchen, especially the internal spice rack that keeps everything perfectly organised. Which feature stands out to you the most? #LuxuryKitchens #HomeInteriors #BespokeKitchensUK #PortreeKitchens #ShakerKitchens #InspoKitchens

Most kitchen frustration comes from prep space being in the wrong location. The most usable zone is between the sink and cooktop. If that area is filled with appliances, decor, or small sections of bench, the kitchen will always feel harder to work in. Clear this zone, store everyday items close by, and keep it free for chopping and prep. Good kitchens are about workflow, not size. This is one of the first things I look at in kitchen plans. 📍Save this before blaming the layout.

Form Follows Function. We used the specs of our integrated fridge and dishwasher to inform our cabinet design. The symmetry helps keep them hidden and beautiful. . . . . #kitchen #kitchendesign #hiddenappliances #hiddenfridge #marblekitchen #allsortsof #kitchenrenovation #kitchendecor #kitcheninspiration #englishkitchen #myonepiece #fabphotoshare #eatingnook #appliancegarage #marbleledge #kitchenisland

Stovetop with utensil drawer on the left and spice rack on the right. Everything exactly where you reach for it. Thats how you design a cooking zone that actually works. #kitchendesıgn #kitchenlayout #spicerack

10 kitchen solutions we’re *still* obsessed with (save this for your future self) ✨ Vertical storage — every cutting board + pan has a home 
✨ Kitchen Aid Mixer - no more heavy lifting ✨ Pebble ice maker - the real MVP for cocktails, mocktails and daily hydration ✨ Magic corner — no wasted space, appliances tucked away.
✨ Charging drawer — clutter-free counters 🙌.
✨ Coffee + wellness station — our non-negotiable mornings. ✨ 5 ft. sink (with two disposals) - say no more. ✨ Pot filler — yes, I use it daily. ✨ Pass-through window — opened every. single. day.
✨ Fridge drink drawers — grab + go made easy. Which one is your favorite??!👇🏼 
And yes, If I were designing all over again, these would still be non-negotiable for us! Kitchen design & cabinets via @lijspaces

Welcome to My Kitchen ✨ When designing the kitchen, I want it to be timeless, practical, and accommodating to my needs ✅ Fridge with Automatic Ice Machine I specifically choose this fridge as it has automatic ice machine dispenser. The brand is Electrolux EQE6879A French Door. I love how it can create cube and crushed ice, as well as being cool water dispenser too 😍 ✅ Pull Down Dish Rack To maximize upper cabinet, I choose to use Hafele Pull Down System that can dry and store my dishes. Not only it is strong and durable, now I can reach it easily even without stair / stool ✅ Storage Unit for Each Electronic Appliances I use a lot of electronic cooking appliances such as Rice Cooker, Air Fryer, Juicer, Blender, Steamer, and so on. I want it to stay hidden from sight when not in use as well as having their own home. Therefore I put them on this individual cabinet, with their own electronic socket for easy plug in / switch on. And there’s also pull system when it’s on use to not heat the cabinet. For example when cooking rice, the steam might blow from the upper lid so it is useful to pull it outside ❤️ Do you dream of kitchen like this too?
