kitchen design
Terrific article here for kitchen designers in New York and elsewhere.

To simplify the work processes in the kitchen, it’s important to be cognizant of the value of energy management. Each person has a finite amount of energy depending on physical heritage, age and general health. Minimizing the efforts needed to cook in the new room is possible if you are familiar with the research and ask the right questions when you first interview your client.

Designing expressly for a client’s needs.  That’s a key ingredient in creating a happy customer base.

Not all good things last; there’s only one remaining unsold kitchen in NYKB’s Kitchen Display Sale.  Just one.  Five whole kitchens were snapped up in less than five weeks.  Why?  Well, not only are they all gorgeous and professionally designed, but they are priced at 25% of their retail price - in order to make room for a wholenew kitchen display.  Unreal.  Well, here are the specs on the final kitchen: 

Maistri White & Brown Lacquer Kitchen

- Maistri cabinetry display

- Gaggenau cooktop and hood

- Entire island includes L-shaped wenge dining counter, legs, and chairs

- White Silestone countertop (includes island)

4 Essentials in NYKB kitchen design

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

kitchen image1) Thoughtful design - There are three big components in a kitchen: the stove, the sink, and the refrigerator.  They should be arranged for ease of access for the primary cook, or cooks, of the kitchen.  Also, kitchens that serve bigger households should have “station” space; that is, room enough for more than one to prepare meals.  

2) Quality countertops - Durability matters.  The countertop will take the most beating (’cept for eggs) of anything in your kitchen.  Customers of NYKB rave about the gorgeous quartz Caesarstone countertops.  

3) Storage - Kitchens do not mind themselves and proper storage is essential.  If a homeowner isn’t careful, clutter will become an issue of domestic stress and organized cabinetry design can help nip clutter before it starts.  Good designers, the kind found at NYKB, know good cabinetry and employ ingenuity to maximize space in creating an orderly kitchen. 

4) Pleasing to the eye - Gone are the days when kitchens were rooms of function hidden behind closed doors.  Our households are more open today and kitchens are an extension of the living place.  Fortunately, kitchen design is accommodative to this trend and beautiful kitchens are yours for the taking.  Come into an NYKB showroom and see for yourself!
