Design Tips for an Impressive Summer Kitchen Extension

by James Spencer Blogger

More often than not, your kitchen isn’t just the place where you prepare delicious meals. It also acts as the focal point of your house, where each family member amasses and spends quality time.

The aim should be to achieve a spacious kitchen extension with ample natural light and can also be employed as a functional kitchen-dining area.

So, it makes sense to opt for a full-fledged kitchen makeover and consult with field experts to come up with a quality kitchen extension design. If you are planning for an extension soon, then here are some design tips to achieve an impressive summer kitchen makeover.

Sort Out What Your Kitchen Needs:-

The first step to planning a full-fledged kitchen renovation is making a list of things you want to add.

  • Do you want to make your kitchen space a large combined kitchen-dining space?
  • Are you looking to achieve a specific area for all your guests to dine?
  • Do you wish to include a breakfast bar instead of a traditional dining set as per your preference?
  • Or, do you need an increased space for your appliances like washing machines along with a separate utility space?

These are important aspects of any kitchen remodelling, and you need to sit down with your chosen experts delivering home extensions in Melbourne to decide what will work as per your existing space.

Look to Install Skylights & Also Achieve Large-sized Windows:-

Other than deciding what kind of kitchen space you are after, next comes installing quality skylights for an airy-bright effect. You can also consider large-sized windows to allow natural light to circulate and make the area appear bigger.

Still, better? Look to including bi-folding doors which leads to your garden area- (provided the existing space permits).

Consider Adding A Kitchen Island:-

If you wish to go against the popular trend which is open –airy kitchen-dining spaces and opt for a kitchen island/ breakfast bar incorporating the oven and other appliance- you still can achieve a communal seating area (with that extra open space you want).

You also need to think about adding an induction hob with a tiled or wood finish- suiting the extension design.

Don’t Hesitate In Going Too Bold:-

You need to ask yourself- Do I go for something on-trend, or do I play safe and opt for something timeless?

You can consult with your chosen home builders in Beaumaris to blend two colour schemes- one for a vibrant-coloured feature wall complemented by a minimalistic décor. You can even add some bright-shaded appliances and fixtures to make the entire extension pop out. 

Another Important Tip: - Never Look To Exceed Your Budget!

Often homeowners commit the mistake of exceeding their budget during an extension project. Plan out your project with a face to face discussion with your extension specialist! Focus on the details and be selective in what you choose to add.

It will help you stay within your budget and still achieve the design you want.
