Ideas To Consider For Your Dream Kitchen

JA Horne Starlight • Feb 23, 2023

For many of us, the idea of starting from scratch and working on a dream kitchen space is simply a dream. Whether you’re passionate about cooking, have an interest in interior design or want to put together a detailed plan worth working towards, we’re here to guide you on your way. Let JA Horne Starlight take you through an assortment of ideas to consider for the kitchen you’ve always desired - be it unique soft lighting, bespoke displays fit to specification or even the general worktop layout with islands and built-in appliances.

 

Interesting Lighting

Though natural lighting would of course be our primary suggestion due to the obvious health qualities maintained by exposure to the sun, reading lights, lamps and overheat fittings are just as suitable - especially in a kitchen. Make a splash with clear and beneficial light fittings over a food prep area, fit smaller lights around the edges of your skirting boards for an interesting look or even have fixtures built into the units and cabinets. Many modern designs attempt to make the most of natural lighting thanks to craftily placed windows and glass panes, meaning less energy used on a bright day.

 

Sensible Seating

If your dining area and food preparation space are joined, you’ll want to think long and hard about the seating to include, especially if you host guests regularly. Looking the part and feeling the part should both be considered, with a visually pleasing yet uncomfortable seat unlikely to do the trick, and the alternate combination just as unsuitable. Want to try out your seating before committing to an order? Or do you perhaps even want your seating to be custom-made to exact specifications? Allow us to help.

 

Island Arrangements

Certainly a modern feature for your potential kitchen space, islands are a great way to separate your room into distinct sections, and can be used for everything from seating spaces and utility stations, to particular food preparation spaces. Of course, the flexibility of this feature is largely dictated by the size of your kitchen, and separate worktop islands may be a tight squeeze within smaller spaces, but this is your “dream kitchen” after all, so why not think big?


Racks And Displays

Custom racks and displays are a great way to decorate the kitchen if you spend a lot of time preparing meals, baking or trying out new recipes. An appliance rack will allow you to hang up your most used kitchen utilities in an orderly fashion, while our more tailored offerings can include spice racks, equipment cupboards or even installations installed to-measure, ensuring your oven, fridge or sink fits into the exact centimetre.

With measuring, itemised quotation, aftercare, and planning services all completely free, JA Horne Starlight will endeavour to match any quotes you receive.
