When decorating a house, why are the kitchen and bathroom the most important?

Kitchen and bathroom decoration has always been good at gathering. Compared with this field, we have rich experience. Today, we will discuss the design and layout of the kitchen. Besides the mode, there are some more important key details. Please read it carefully if necessary. I will try my best to write more about these places. These key points may help you save a lot of regrets and detours.

In fact, I want to say that it doesn't matter what type, but it is most important to understand the kitchen usage habits and layout. U-shaped, G-shaped, L-shaped, I-shaped ... these kitchen structures are familiar and the kitchen is also very easy to use. The most important thing is the arrangement of core functions, which is the activity route of people in the kitchen.

For most people, the core function of the kitchen is cooking. Therefore, the layout of sink, operating area and cooker is the most important. In addition to leaving enough space (especially the operating area), we should also reduce the distance as much as possible and avoid walking.

Designing these three partitions is the basic requirement of designing the kitchen. No matter how small the kitchen space is and the budget is limited, it must be realized, and the layout of the position is also the key to whether the kitchen is easy to use.

The key points we think of are these: arrange the position of sink and stove, correspondingly, the bottom of stove can reserve the storage position of tableware, and it will be very convenient to open the drawer to get the dishes after dinner; A variety of spices can be reserved on the stove; It is natural that the dishwasher should be kept around the sink.

▲ The layout of the kitchen needs careful consideration. This is not something that a foreman or designer can advocate, because the last people who survive are you and your family.

The open kitchen is not only more convenient for communication, but also the most convenient kitchen layout, making cooking a life rather than a "job". An island platform is arranged on the opposite side of the stove. Water supply and drainage and circuits are introduced into the island platform, and hand sinks can be installed, washed and cut, all of which can be completed by turning around. The island platform can also ensure sufficient operating space.

▲ When you see an open kitchen, don't rush to oppose and support it. Think about your living habits before you decide.

▲ The kitchen can be such an independent island platform.

▲ The small kitchen can also be used as a peninsula.

To build an open kitchen, it is generally necessary to break the wall to open up space, or leave a doorway without doors.

▲ Many people don't have the habit of kitchen doors, so it is best not to install doors.

▲ Kitchen without doors

As for the lampblack problem, we suggest that we can choose domestic lampblack machine. Generally speaking, domestic range hoods are more familiar with the cooking habits of China people in design.

At present, the exhaust air volume of mainstream range hoods on the market is 19 m3/min, and the side-suction range hoods are more capable of absorbing oil fumes, but their shapes will be abrupt (ugly).

Many times, the layout of the kitchen is limited. If the kitchen area is not large, the following points are very important:

Don't put the main functions such as sink, stove or operation area in the corner of the cabinet, which is narrow and difficult to operate. When you find the corner just enough to put down the sink, you may be excited for several days, but you may regret it on the first day of installation.

Try not to reduce the cabinet area because of limited budget. Single-line layout is actually a helpless choice. The same cooking, if there is an island platform, can basically be done by turning around. If it is a direct kitchen, it is a long-distance raid of 3 meters round trip according to the calculation of each area of the sink-operation area-stove 1 meter.

▲ First-line layout often takes more roads.

▲ The bigger the kitchen, the better. Moderate size and reasonable layout.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ Again, if possible, be sure to leave an island for the kitchen.

If you have chosen a straight kitchen, you can install shelves, hanging rods and mobile carts on the empty wall to enrich the storage of the kitchen and minimize walking.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ Hanging cabinets are not the only storage method. Shelves, trolleys, etc. Can be used to increase storage space.

In addition to cooking, another focus of kitchen use is the use of kitchen appliances. The refrigerator occupies most of the space. If you want to have a double-door refrigerator, you must first have enough space. If the kitchen space is not large, we suggest putting the refrigerator in the living room and other space adjacent to the kitchen.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ The kitchen is so small that you can even put the refrigerator in the living room and dining room.

We strongly recommend dishwashers and ovens. The steamer and disinfection cabinet depend on your needs and the size of the cabinet space. Our preliminary conclusion is that these things are not very practical and some are dispensable.

Kitchen appliances are recommended to be embedded. The oven can be placed under the stove, or a high cabinet can be specially set up and placed at the same height as the countertop. Try not to put it on the ground, it is very tiring to use. If there is a steamer, you can stack it up and down.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ Oven, dishwasher, etc. It should be an essential appliance in the kitchen.

We strongly recommend the embedded induction cooker or ceramic electric stove. As far as firepower is concerned, these foreign cookers can't stir-fry, but basically all cooking can be done except stir-frying, and they are clean and have no open flames, which is also good for the maintenance of pots and pans.

I can't bear to get angry directly now. When I use it on an electric stove, it can keep its appearance clean as new for a long time. In our minds, the future kitchen is actually an induction cooker or an electric ceramic stove, supplemented by a gas stove.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ The electric stove is very easy to use except that it is not suitable for China people to cook.

Hydropower transformation is an easily overlooked link. If the needs of kitchens (especially all kinds of electrical appliances) are not considered in the early stage, it will add a lot of trouble to the rework of walls and floors after treatment.

In addition to the location of gas (stove) and water (sink), we need to consider what electrical appliances are needed at home first.

Necessary rice cookers and electric kettles need to be arranged in advance, and sockets should be reserved. Don't forget to leave a separate 16A socket for the refrigerator.

If there is a planned island platform at home, of course, it is recommended to introduce water supply and drainage and circuits, and install sinks and induction cookers on the island platform, which will greatly facilitate daily use and even install various embedded household appliances.

Although many advertisements for domestic rice cookers have been hyped in recent years, I still think Japanese rice cookers are better cooked. Some friends who want to buy Japanese kitchen appliances strongly suggest that the kitchen should reserve two 1 10V power supplies, so that there is no need to drag heavy and ugly transformers in the future, and the countertop will become much cleaner.

Pay attention to changing the voltage of 1 10V, and the power of the transformer should be as large as possible. As the voltage becomes smaller, the corresponding buried wires need to be thicker. If you choose Japanese socket directly, you need to bury the bottom box of 120. These technical details need to be discussed with the electrician in advance and prepared early.

I suggest you make a list of planned kitchen appliances, such as gas stove, range hood, washing machine, water purifier, kitchen garbage disposal device, instant water heater, etc. And make sure there are no sockets left, and then remember to confirm the reserved position of sockets by the way, away from gas stoves and sinks to ensure safety.

Why is decorating the kitchen the most important space in the whole house?

▲ You should carefully consider the power supply of each electrical appliance and the location of each socket, otherwise you will feel sorry after using it every day.

After the layout is finished, let's talk about the face project.

The best choice is cement brick and cement tile, and floor+carpet is also feasible. Because of the particularity of kitchen waterproof and anti-fume, floor tile is a better choice at present, and cement brick and cement brick are recommended.

Gray cement brick is the most common at present, but it needs enough color to avoid monotony and ensure layering. Hexagonal cement brick is the most popular now, and it is also an ideal product that we have realized.
