Spring is the perfect time to make a few changes to help us feel a lot better in the comfort of our own homes.
It’s best to start those in the kitchen – after all, we spend a substantial amount of time in it and want it to be as functional, pleasing to the eye, and environmentally friendly, as possible. Sometimes it’s enough to introduce just a handful of tweaks to make food preparation much easier, but also to transform the whole place beyond recognition.
Step 1: Storage
The perfect kitchen is perfectly neat and tidy. Sadly, tidiness is not always easy to achieve, especially if our kitchen area is limited. Contrary to what it might seem, the real problem lies with the choice of inappropriate solutions, not the lack of space itself. “GTV has the right solutions to maximise the use of free space and make your daily activities much easier,” says Marcin Sałek, Design Department Coordinator at GTV. “With the Modern Box-Drawer System, you can fully extend your drawers, making even the deepest parts easily accessible. Our solutions are designed to put every inch of your space to practical use – including inconvenient places such as the area under the oven. Silent closing is another essential feature which improves the general comfort of use,” he adds.
The market is bursting with products designed for organising a functional and nice-looking kitchen. Our products, such as the Modern-Box system, fit perfectly with almost every kitchen design – traditional, modern, or minimalist – giving you multiple modification options without the need to compromise.
Step 2: Organising Space
The Customi Drawer Inserts, made of top-quality beech wood, are the perfect complement for your kitchen-cleaning projects. They eliminate all the clutter in your cutlery and kitchen-accessory cabinets, look great, and retain their pleasing appearance for many years to come. Waste-sorting bins are another solution which is worth your time and money. “Modern life means environmentally friendly technologies,” says Marcin Sałek. “We don’t need to give up functionality in the kitchen to help nature prevail. On the contrary – we can improve it. This was the idea which inspired us to design the Practi Eco and Multino waste-sorting bins. It’s a practical way of sorting your waste which can be easily integrated with your kitchen design. You can also pull them out along telescopic guides, which further increases the comfort of use”, he adds.
Another aspect of kitchen arrangements is lighting. It is, sadly, often overlooked, although it is a decisive factor in the way we feel in the kitchen. Apart from the main lighting, the proper additional lighting of places such as worktops and sinks can do wonders for your kitchen. In this case, we should also aim for environmentally friendly technologies. LED Glax Profiles can provide additional brightness to your worktops, and discreetly accentuate the design of your furniture. Energy efficiency is good not only for the environment, but also for your pocket book.
Step 3: Attention to Detail
Details are a great finishing touch to complement your spring cleaning. Just a few things to bring out the best of your space. One of these things could be furniture handles. By choosing those made of durable and stylish materials, you can not only transform your kitchen, but also discover completely new uses. For example, the Tivoli Handles can be used as a kitchen-cloth or hand-towel hanger. These are simple changes you can do yourself without involving any professionals.
