POLL: Yay or nay - open plan kitchens?

Tom Flanagan
vor 8 Jahren
zuletzt bearbeitet:vor 8 Jahren

In an increasingly liberal world, we're as liberal with our space as we are with anything else! According to our Houzz UK Kitchen Survey, open-plan kitchens are one of the most popular choices for kitchen layouts, and there's no surprise as to why - they're spacious, modern and practical.

But does the open-plan kitchen get your vote, or do you prefer something else? Vote and leave us a comment!

    Only a Yay if you have another living area in the home. Love the social aspect, but wouldn't want that to be my one and only sitting room.

      The concept of an open planned kitchen is great , but to make it work you have to be meticulously tidy , they can become cluttered very quickly in day to use .

      When planned well they are amazing !!!

      Open plan kitchens or 'living spaces' as we tend to call them now, have been popular and evolving for the last 15 years or so, and have become one of the most called-for requests.
      They should however, be thoughtfully designed and not just mindlessly created. Sometimes the resultant space doesn't quite accommodate what the occupant thought it would; or an extension is built and opened through to the original home but the eventual contents ignored. There's nothing more upsetting, than to explain to a client who's half way through building an extension, that the island they craved, won't in fact fit the newly created space!

      We specialise in kitchen design and remodeling, so tend to design from the clients needs outwards. This sometimes proves an extension isn't justified, or often serves to optimise the size & shape of an extension to suit the internal flow & accommodation.

      I love open plan kitchen/dining/snug spaces but personally feel that a separate lounge or TV room is better if possible, than to have an entirely knocked through everything.
      Eventually the combination of beeping appliances, extractors and two sources of entertainment, can get irritating! If space allows, I would always recommend a separate utility room to keep the noisiest machines well away from living accommodation.
      Whatever you choose, make sure that plenty of thought and time is invested in the design process, before building or knocking through!

      Definitely benefits young families and
      professional couples. For larger families separate rooms gives much needed
      privacy/segregation/me time.

      We are often approached by clients who are creating an open plan kitchen, dining and living area. To overcome some of the issues we make cabinetry which can hide away the usual clutter found in a busy kitchen. Bi-fold and pocketing doors are great in this instance as ovens and even sinks can be hidden away, making the cabinetry seem more like a piece of furniture than a kitchen. Our clients love being able to change the look of a space in an instance!

      It is crucial to make sure you choose your appliances carefully, i.e. a quiet dishwasher and a good extractor are of huge benefit here.

      As long as the space is thoughtfully planned there is no reason that it shouldn't work functional and aesthetically.

      We have just created a open plan living dining kitchen. Its fabulous and I love the fact that I am not isolated from everyone. We have made a utility cupboard away from the open plan space for the washer and dryer and we also have a seperate room which is a quiet sitting room for days you may want to be alone to read or study. I love it and find it to be the best way to live where everyone remains involved with each other.
