There are times when most people begin to despair of their kitchen. For some it is the seeming lack of common sense in the original design. An example of this is a kitchen where the oven is situated on the floor, in the corner of the room. This means you have to drag hot pans and dishes across the entire kitchen to the main working area.
In many cases, older fitted kitchens were not designed with the functionality of the user in mind. It was very much a case of being able to fit items into the kitchen wherever they could be accommodated. Ease of use was not a predominant feature of the older style of kitchen.
The problems of such a kitchen may not be apparent to the novice eye, but those who are experienced in kitchen installation will quickly understand some of the problems people face in poorly designed and constructed kitchens.
Dragging food across surfaces means more chance to spill food on your floor; this means your kitchen will get dirtier and untidier more quickly. An oven that is situated low in a kitchen may not be a problem for most, but for older people who may struggle with back pain the continual bending down and lifting of occasionally heavy foodstuffs can be an issue. Many other UK kitchens are poorly designed, offering less workspace than is needed, or far too much. Some have too few cupboards, others have too many.
Key to resolving this issue is not simply a case of good household management. This is particularly evident when discussing kitchens as there is rarely a one size fits all approach to any design problem that can satisfactorily resolve it. Every kitchen is as individual as the people who use it and as such, each kitchen should ideally reflect the needs and wishes of those people. The best way to achieve that is by considering employing the services one of the best producers of bespoke kitchens: Kitchens UK.
