Custom kitchens are perfect for New Zealanders who love to make delicious meals and everlasting memories at home. The kitchen is the heart of your home, so why not make it perfect by exploring the best bespoke kitchen ideas? No matter what kind of chef you are, there are amazing ideas that can elevate your kitchen from generic to perfectly customised.
Innovative Kitchen Design Ideas To Get Your Imagination Going
Bespoke kitchens and cabinetry are made to fit your specifications and needs, so your possibilities are practically endless. This is an amazing perk of choosing a custom kitchen design, but it can also make decisions challenging. When your possibilities are endless, how do you know what to pick?
Here are a handful of ways you can enhance your NZ kitchen to make it a masterpiece.
Hidden Storage Solutions. Storage is everything in kitchens, especially if you’re limited in space. No worries; there are plenty of hidden storage solutions that help your space stay clean and clutter-free. Pull-out pantries, built-in spice racks or even a hidden compartment for trash bins can keep your space neat.
These unseen but impactful solutions can be easily incorporated into your kitchen design and cabinetry. When exploring bespoke kitchen ideas, always keep storage and practicality in mind.
Innovative Corner Solutions. Corners are often underutilised, but you can do so much with them. Consider bespoke kitchen cabinetry that makes good use of your corner space without wasting a centimetre.
Corner drawers that pull out diagonally allow you to access items that would otherwise be a hassle to reach. You could also consider rotating platforms so that you can access everything in a cabinet without having to dig through containers. Rotating platforms are a nice option for ingredients like spices, where you most likely have many you’ll want to choose from.
Custom Cabinetry For Your Favourite Appliances. Do you have any particular appliances that you use all the time? Perhaps you use your coffee machine every morning, or you’re always making delicious smoothies with your favourite blender. If you have any kitchen staples, make sure you think about them when pondering your top bespoke kitchen ideas. Consider larger features and appliances as well, such as dishwashers, ovens or microwaves. Custom cabinetry can work around large appliances and provide perfect spots for your favourite smaller appliances.
Play With Colour Palettes. Think about getting creative with your colours. You have a literal rainbow to choose from, so explore the colours you love the most. Consider the classic 60:30:10 interior design colour rule – 60% of your space will be your primary colour, 30% will be your secondary colour and 10% will be your tertiary or accent colour. Accents often contrast the first two hues to give your space a nice pop of colour.
If you’re not sure what colours you like, look at examples of other beautiful kitchens to see what stands out to you. Additionally, think about the colours you use for the rest of your home and choose a palette that compliments your overall interior design.
Pick Eco-Friendly Materials. Redoing your kitchen or creating a new kitchen for a new home is a great opportunity to make green choices. Think about the materials used in your favourite bespoke kitchen ideas, and consider eco-friendly options like sustainable and renewable materials.
Think about sustainably sourced wood or recyclable materials. Wood is a classic, naturally beautiful material, and wooden cabinets are a timeless choice. Additionally, choose energy-efficient appliances and lights.
Maximise Your Vertical Space. If your kitchen is compact, then don’t forget about vertical options. Floor-to-ceiling cabinets can optimise your available space without making your new kitchen crowded and uncomfortable.
Personalised Design Details. Overall, when thinking about bespoke kitchen ideas that would suit your kitchen, think about your personal preferences and your daily lifestyle. What kind of appliances do you usually use? Do you need plenty of spices? Where do you prefer to have your oven or microwave? Remember to not just look at kitchen ideas that look nice but also at kitchen designs that you would love to work with.
Here are a few questions to ask yourself when pondering your kitchen and cabinet needs:
- What tools, appliances and ingredients do I need the most access to? Your new kitchen design can keep these close at hand and easy to access.
- What are my storage needs? Bespoke kitchens can give you plenty of space for all of your tools and ingredients.
- What are my style preferences? Aside from practical needs, think about what you think looks amazing and make sure your kitchen design is something you love.
