When doing a luxury kitchen renovation, there is a myriad of options available to you. Some of what you implement should depend on how you use your kitchen. Nevertheless, in today’s blog article, we will give you some suggestions for stellar ideas to incorporate in a luxury kitchen. One of the benefits of living in Surrey or nearby is the proximity to Vancouver, which means just about everything is available to you to choose from.
Cabinetry
Definitely go with custom cabinetry. Custom cabinetry allows you to get exactly what you want with the finishes you want. Consider glass inserts in cabinet doors which help make a kitchen brighter. You can have drawers, for example, everywhere, so you have much better access to reach in the back of lower cabinets.
Appliances
Luxury kitchen typically have high-end appliances. Maybe you want an oversize refrigerator or refrigerator or freezer drawers. Or maybe you want a beverage or wine cooler.
Plumbing and Wiring
Maybe you want charging stations for your devices with the wiring and cable built in. Plan for lots of outlets for all of your small appliances.
For plumbing, consider having a pot filler tap at the stove, or a small prep sink in addition to the larger utilitarian one. You can also have a small sink near a coffee station.
You may wish to have an espresso machine plumbed in or a boiling water tap at the sink. There are lots of possibilities for those gourmet cooks who use their kitchen fully.
Scullery
One trend that is coming back into style is having a scullery or a smaller “back” kitchen for the extra dirty tasks behind but connected to the formal kitchen. If you have the space for it, a scullery is a fabulous idea. You can have as much as you want and can fit in a scullery, such as appliances, a sink, or just cabinets and counter for prep work.
Give your renovation a lot of thought before making final decisions. It is much easier to change plans before you start than after the work is half completed.
