Winter is a good time for reflection and planning

If you have the opportunity to design your own kitchen, the best way is to design it into zones.

Kitchen Zones

---

PREP
Washing, chopping, mixing, the Prep Zone is the main work area of the kitchen. It should be close to the sink, with plenty of counter space. Utensils, cutting boards, mixing bowls close by. And storage for small appliances, scales, and spices.
​

---

COOK
Have stove cooktop, oven, microwave in one location. All items needed for cooking and bakeing should be stored here. Pots, pans, utensils, cookbooks & ingredients.

CLEAN
Sink and dishwasher close together with cabinets for waste storage and household cleaners.

Other things to have if space allows

A kitchen island looks great and is practical to free up counter space and store utensils & appliances.





​Specialized cabinets and drawers to help organize and free up storage in areas like above the fridge.




​

​A double duty workstation area to study or go on line while dinner is being prepared.
