Decoration is really not a worry-free thing, not only to consider aesthetics but also to pay attention to practicality. As the most frequently used area in the home, what problems should be paid attention to when decorating the kitchen? See what those who have stepped on the pit have to say.

The lights must be bright, not single.

I believe you have had such embarrassment: washing rice under the irradiation of ceiling lamp, even if you open your eyes wide, you will inevitably miss a few grains of rice; Even sometimes, the chopping board is in your shadow, and you should follow your heart when cutting vegetables.

When decorating, make sure that the kitchen lights are bright, and the light bulbs are preferably white, not yellow, otherwise the colors of fruits, vegetables and meat are easily distorted. At present, ceiling lamps include embedded lamps, fluorescent lamps and lumen ceilings, among which embedded lamps are the most practical; However, the kitchen should be bright, not just by ceiling lamps. accent lighting should be strengthened, and spotlights can be added to the countertops for cutting vegetables.

Measure the size of electrical appliances in advance and reserve them.

Intelligent kitchen appliances are a must in the kitchen. Both microwave oven and oven can be embedded in the cupboard, but the kitchen appliances should be measured first to prevent the cupboard from being too small to fit in.

In addition, the floor cabinet can be designed with a storage system for small household appliances. The drawer can be pulled out when in use and pushed in when not in use. When the door panel is closed, the appearance looks neat.

Reserved power socket

Kitchen is a place where electrical appliances are widely used, such as range hoods, refrigerators, microwave ovens, induction cookers and rice cookers. If the socket is not reserved according to the actual needs, it is quite difficult to make it up afterwards.

Divide functional areas according to the golden triangle

The moving line design of the cabinet is the key to the use of the cabinet. The washing area, cooking area and operation area form a golden triangle with the layout of saving distance, time and labor; For example, put the prepared dishes next to the gas stove and cabinet table, which is convenient for cooking and will not be in a hurry.

Hardware is very important, don't save money.

In all kinds of furniture, cabinets should be regarded as the most frequently used. The quality of hardware fittings directly determines the life of cabinets. When choosing a cabinet, you might as well take a look at the brand of hardware it uses first. If economic conditions permit, you can choose high-end hardware products with higher prices.

Walls and tiles can't just be beautiful and non-slip.

The kitchen is a place with a lot of oil smoke. If the ceramic tile with uneven surface is not cleaned frequently, for a long time, oil stains will be attached to cracks and micropores, which will affect the cleanliness and beauty of the kitchen. Therefore, when choosing tiles, it is best to have a flat and smooth surface.

Design some baskets properly.

The kitchen is humid, and the basket is definitely a good helper for kitchen storage. Compared with drawers, pull baskets are more breathable and difficult to hide cockroaches.

Like a gas stove or refrigerator, there are often fragmentary spaces with a width less than 20cm. You can design this long and narrow cabinet to increase storage space.

There are also many things in the hanging cabinet that are difficult to take. You can add a lifting hardware basket to make it more convenient to take and put things, which greatly improves the practicality of the hanging cabinet. But pay attention to the material when choosing baskets.

Add a storage system for storing knives and forks.

Add a storage compartment for knives, forks, plates or odds and ends in the drawer, and put knives, forks and spoons into special categories to facilitate cooking and taking things; If you want the kitchen to be clean, tidy and convenient, you must rely on such practical storage supplies.

Sliding door design to prevent oil fume from spreading at will.

You can design a sliding door, pull the door up when cooking, and the kitchen will become an independent space, so you don't have to worry about soot or air conditioning. Opening the sliding door on weekdays can make the indoor air circulate and maintain good ventilation.

Be sure to leave a maintenance hole.

There are many pipes on the ceiling of the kitchen. In addition to lamps and wires, some will also install fire-proof smoke-sensing equipment and fire pipes, so remember to leave a maintenance hole in the ceiling, so it won't be too much trouble to repair anything in the future.

Some pits need to be crossed before we know that these experienced people have made mistakes in their experiences. Owners must pay attention when decorating. Don't step on it if you can ~
