DESIGN AND PLANNING
In the corner kitchen the elements are arranged along two adjoining walls, which allows use to be made of the corner space created between them.
This configuration is highly appreciated when space is limited, so for furnishing a small kitchen.
But an angled kitchen – be it an L-shaped kitchen or a U-shaped kitchen – can also be a choice of style because it lends a dynamic character without encroaching on the space in the middle of the room, which can be used for socialising by placing a dining table in it.
1. The corner kitchen is ideal if you have limited space available
Often a small room does not provide sufficient space for a linear kitchen. In cases like these, you can make use of the corner by using appropriate devices – special hinges, pull-out corner cabinets featuring smart mechanisms – in order to increase confort and convenience.
If your motivation for choosing a corner kitchen is precisely its limited footprint, we advise you to choose a light and bright colour palette for your furniture.
Not only will you make the room brighter, you will also make the kitchen look bigger.
A corner kitchen is the ideal solution in cases where space is limited. This does not mean that it cannot benefit larger rooms, especially if you like the idea of placing worktops along the walls to furnish the large remaining central area with a beautiful table.
A corner arrangement will allow you to achieve a functional and modern kitchen corner, and at the same time create a spacious living area.
If you choose a corner kitchen for its ability to optimise space, we recommend placing hobs or sinks in the corner areas so as to make maximum use of usually unused parts of walls.
A good idea is to place the hob in the corner, which gives you freedom of movement when preparing food. More importantly, you will need to install an extractor hood or in the case of an induction cooker, an extractor fan integrated into the hob.
Corner kitchens are a versatile choice and suited to many living situations.
