How to design an efficient and beautiful Chinoiserie kitchen?

      The kitchen is a key point that must be taken seriously and meticulously decorated in home decoration. The traditional Chinese concept places the kitchen in an extremely important position. A delicate kitchen will bring great convenience to cooking every day, allowing you to cook a perfect dinner for your family.

      But if the kitchen design is not good, it will be full of difficulties to use. Next, I will introduce some excellent Chinese style kitchen designs to provide convenience for kitchen decoration.

1: Kitchen power line

      In traditional Chinese kitchens, the basic process is usually three steps: washing, cutting, and cooking, and the design of the kitchen should also accommodate these three steps. Realizing all Functional requirement in the kitchen can save time, improve efficiency and bring convenience for more comfortable cooking.

2: Kitchen layout

      Since the principle is to beautify on the basis of convenience, the layout should fully follow this principle.

Type I layout

      By designing cabinets, sinks, stoves, and more on one wall, the vast majority of operations can be completed in a straight line, providing convenience for kitchen work and eliminating the need to retrieve items from all over the place, saving a lot of time. Usually used in small spaces and narrow corridors, it is the preferred choice for small units.

L-shaped layout

      The L-shaped layout fully utilizes the dead corners at the corners of the kitchen cabinet, solving the awkwardness of corner space, and the overall layout is flexible and variable. But the kitchen activity space is relatively narrow, with certain restrictions on the number of people.

Type II layout

      Arrange the operation area on parallel lines on both sides, with the storage area → preparation area → cooking area arranged in two characters, and the moving line runs through the cooking process in a circuitous manner. Large storage space, enhanced flexibility, and high requirements for kitchen width for corridor style.

U-shaped layout

      The U-shaped operating platform standing against the wall provides additional storage space. It is also an ideal choice for classic "triangles" such as sinks, smoke stoves, and refrigerators. At the same time, a large space is left in the middle area of the kitchen, allowing users to move freely.

3: Cabinet height

      A suitable height is more ergonomic, convenient to handle, improves efficiency, and ensures that dangerous situations such as bending over and hitting the head do not occur.

      The height of a hanging cabinet is determined by the height of the cabinet, the depth of the cabinet, and the height of the owner. Generally, during design, at least two conditions must be met:

4: Kitchen storage

      The basic principles of storage are: light on top, heavy on bottom, and commonly used in the middle.

      After dividing the three basic areas, there is also a certain pattern of placing things in each area. In an upright state, it is most convenient to reach out and reach for something, while the next time you squat, it is the most troublesome to reach on tiptoe. At the same height, surface items are the best to pick up, while inner items take time to pick up. It is best to follow this pattern to separate commonly used and infrequently used items.

      If you find it troublesome to pick up items in the hanging cabinet area, and it is inconvenient to store pots and utensils in the floor cabinet, making it difficult to use the space in the upper corners, you can also use a pull basket, which can be very convenient to pick up items.

5: Kitchen Lighting Design

      The lighting design of the kitchen not only needs to meet normal lighting needs, but also ensures that your own shadow cannot block the washing and cutting of vegetables. The most important thing is that you are a skilled atmosphere regulator, and even the food in a beautiful kitchen is sparkling!

      So, the general kitchen lighting design is: ceiling light+operating table light+cabinet light.
