Interior decoration with an emphasis on storage layout(2)

Kitchen storage

The kitchen is the heart of a home and its design is a key factor in the comfort of its users. The kitchen is designed in the centre of the house, making it easy for family members to use and communicate with each other. The overall layout of the kitchen is 'U' shaped, with an area of approximately 7.5 square metres. The cabinets are sourced from a finished cabinet manufacturer, and the sink, hood, cooker and other electrical equipment are all standard parts from a branded manufacturer, processed in the factory and installed directly on site, making the construction environment clean and efficient.

From the viewpoint of the layout, the window position is not suitable for the cooker, resulting in the sink - worktop - cooker line that people are generally accustomed to, but the operating space in each area is still relatively comfortable; the refrigerator is placed in the dining area outside the kitchen, resulting in the refrigerator - sink - stove line is too long. -The long line of the cooker causes some inconvenience in use. The layout of the kitchen façade. The kitchen is functional and the space is well utilised.

The kitchen is analysed in the order of left to right and bottom to top. On the hob elevation, the floor cabinets consist of a three-drawer hob cabinet and a small spice pull-out basket. The drawer cabinets contain cutlery boxes and dish dividers for easy storage and use. The hood is encased in a hanging cabinet, which allows for a neater appearance of the kitchen and makes use of the storage space on either side of the hood.

However, due to the specificity of the installation of the hood, the hood cabinets currently on the market are more than standard wall cabinets modified on site, increasing the difficulty of installation, and once the hood is installed in the cabinet, the difficulty of later maintenance will increase a lot, each time the maintenance requires electrical and cabinet manufacturers to cooperate at the same time, first remove the cabinet and then overhaul, and then reinstall the hood hanging cabinet, increasing the cost of later maintenance.

The gas meter hanging cabinet still needs to be cut and modified on site due to the need to avoid the gas pipe. The sink façade, with a corner saucer pull-out in the left corner, makes full use of the corner space and can be used for pots and pans. The sink cabinet has a small pendant on the door panel for laundry items. Two-drawer floor cabinet with built-in cutlery box and dish divider for easy storage of dishes and cutlery, but overlaps with the drawers on the hob counter and can be modified to save costs.

Plain flush door floor cupboard for storage of less frequently used items. The last elevation is a high cupboard area with one pull-out high cupboard and one appliance high cupboard in the kitchen. The pull-out high cabinets can increase kitchen storage to a large extent, but the most suitable location for the pull-out high cabinets should be unobstructed on both sides, as the left side of the cabinet is against the wall, so that the user can only access the items in the pull-out high cabinets from the right side, which reduces the functionality of the cabinet.

The appliance highboard has a built-in steam oven for ease of use and to keep the kitchen tidy. In the dining room there are two built-in refrigerators. The use of ice inserts reduces the noise generated by the operation of the refrigerator to a large extent and keeps the overall appearance in line with the cabinets, making it visually more tidy and comfortable. And because of the airtight nature of the inlay ice, it is helpful for anti-bacterial and anti-bacterial.
