A new advice guide from the Kitchen chesterfield information service has recently been launched for those who are planning New Kitchens in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.
As well as giving basic information about styles of kitchen for both urban and country living, the guide also includes information on basic kitchen layout, and different size of kitchens in Chesterfield. Whilst the advice is for planning kitchens in the chesterfield area, there is plenty of good advice that can be gleaned from these pages for general planning of fitted kitchen anywhere in the UK.
The Kitchens Chesterfield Information service details the four basic kitchen design types. The kitchen layout types are referred to as: the L shape kitchen, the u shape kitchen, the two way galley and the single galley kitchen. These are the common designs of kitchens in both chesterfield and the rest of the UK today.
A Galley Kitchen has all the appearance of a galley on a ship, and thus, this is why it is described so. It allows for the best use of kitchen space in a small and narrow area. Whilst storage space in the kitchen is limited, it is unlikely that any other design would work on areas using the galley style due to space confinement. The kitchens chesterfield information service indicated that in small galley style kitchens, the placement of the kitchen hob, fridge and sink should be located as close together as possible to avoid walking long distances when working in the kitchen.
The L-shaped kitchen is the dominating blueprint design for new builds. L-shape kitchen allow for the most workspace. The L appearance architecture reduces the need to travel excessively when preparing food in kitchens. Chesterfield homes can provide addition eating areas within the L shape kitchen, as this design lends itself to the use of a Kitchen table for family dining. It is also usefully suggested, that those who do not make use of kitchen dining, install a kitchen island to accommodate extra work top space.
A two way galley, (or aisle appearance kitchen, as some call it,) is a kitchen blueprint that has worktops along each kitchen side. These kitchens have the added advantage of storage on each side of the kitchen. This design may be used in many kitchens in Chesterfield and throughout the UK. This is a great design when kitchen space is at a premium. To eat within the two way galley style kitchen, the installer would be best advised to consider placing a small breakfast bar at the end of one of the kitchen work surfaces.
A U-shaped kitchen is addition accepted layout for kitchens. This kitchen architecture allows for ample storage beneath the kitchen worktops or counter tops. However, because of the enclosure of this design, some may feel this kitchen design is more claustrophobic than the other fitted kitchen designs described.
