Different kitchen cabinet designs make your kitchen special

Japanese writer Yoshimoto Banana once wrote in  novel: “In this world, my favorite place is the kitchen.” The kitchen, this warm and practical place, can always be disturbed and empty in your heart time, to give you the most gentle comfort.

As the heart of the whole kitchen, the cabinet should be particular about the design. According to the space, reasonable planning and careful design can make the cabinet become a real existence with both beauty and strength.

Cabinet design, the principles you should follow

The overall design pays attention to function first

The essence of furniture design should be for people to use, and the key is the comfort of use. This is what we often say “function first”. Therefore, the first premise of designing cabinets is the display of practical functions. The design pays attention to the rationality of space layout. While ensuring sufficient operating space, it is also necessary to set up abundant storage space.

 Cabinet design should be ergonomic

A cabinet that satisfies the user should fully consider various factors of the user in the design. From the base cabinet, the hanging cabinet to the countertop, the height needs to be designed according to the personal height and operating habits.

The general standard for the height of the base cabinet: take the height of 165CM as the limit, the height below 165CM is 80CM; the height above 165CM is 85CM.

Under normal circumstances, the height of the hanging cabinet is between 50CM and 60CM, and the distance from the ground should be between 145CM and 150CM. This height is suitable for the height of most users, and they can spare no effort to get the items in the cabinet.

The height of the standard kitchen countertop is 80CM, but the actual situation of the user needs to be considered in the design. Therefore, we can use the following formula to make a more reasonable calculation.

Formula 1: 1/2 of the height + (5~10CM). Taking the height of 165CM as an example, the calculation result of the table height is: 82.5+5=87.5, and the ideal height is 90CM.

Formula 2: Height × 0.54, taking the height of 165CM as an example, the calculation result of the table height: 165 × 0.54=89.1, the ideal height is 90CM.

The choice of cabinet countertop material

 Practical responsibility: artificial stone countertop

Artificial stone countertops are a very popular countertop material, which are divided into two types: seamed and seamless. In the selection of cabinet countertops, seamless artificial stone countertops are one of the most frequently used. The countertop of this material looks simple and clean, with a hint of arrogance, but it warms the space inadvertently.
