Five Essentials to Include When Designing a Luxury Kitchen

Before you even start designing your luxury kitchen, it’s prudent to prepare and plan by writing a list of your essential luxury kitchen appliances. These will differ from home to home depending on lifestyle and personal preference, but one thing we advise all our clients is not to settle for less – it’s important that you create the kitchen of your dreams without compromise. What’s most important to you – ease of use? Style? Precision? Storage?

Crucially, your designer kitchen appliances need to enrich your world so you need to design a kitchen which is tailored to you without impeding the flow of family life.

Here we explore five luxury kitchen features to help you avoid flash-in-the-pan fads and distinguish your cookspace as an intelligently-designed heart of the home which will stand the test of time.

Install a Wine Storage Cabinet

Outside influences such as temperature, humidity, light and vibration can all harm the flavour of your favourite Pouilly Fumé or Pinor Noir. It is this which has made wine storage cabinets become the ‘piece de resistance’ of any epicurean’s kitchen. A luxury wine cabinet enhances the prestige of your kitchen stylishly. So much more than wine coolers of times past, a state-of-the-art wine storage cabinet enlists advanced preservation technologies and protective features to preserve your wine for future generations. Modern wine cabinets offer numerous features such as multiple climate zones, beautiful presentation lights, and lockable glass doors. All this whilst showcasing your collection and blending seamlessly into your interior design scheme, what more could you want?

A Teppan Yaki Grill Elevates Your Cookspace

True foodies know exactly how they like their kitchen configured, and discerning homeowners choose to add Teppan Yaki grills to their kitchen design as it not only augments the look of their cooktop, but it elevates their cooking to the next level. Whether you use a Teppan Yaki grill for sizzling steak, fish or vegetables (or all of the above), a state-of-the-art hot plate invites keen chefs to explore pan-free culinary artistry at home. If you love entertaining and love impressing guests, the versatility and potential afforded to you by adding a Teppan Yaki grill to your luxury kitchen is second-to-none. A modern kitchen isn’t complete without one of these versatile additions, and we’re seeing a real surge in popularity as we design more and more kitchens for foodies who know that the small details matter.

An Intelligent Ventilation System

Eliminate dinner’s uninvited guests (smoke, grease, and odour) with a powerful, intelligent ventilation system which doesn’t just keep the air clean, but serves to protect the kitchen atmosphere from  grease particles and oils.  As the kitchen becomes more than just a place to prepare food, choosing a discrete yet effective extraction of steam and grease from the atmosphere becomes vital. By electing to install a powerful integrated extraction system into your new kitchen from a brand like Gaggenau or Sub Zero & Wolf, it helps to ensure that your cabinetry and luxury kitchen furniture stays in pristine condition. Air recirculation and dimmable illumination are just some of the features discerning homeowners covet when selecting from our range of ventilation systems – a luxury kitchen just isn’t complete without one.

A Coordinated Laundry System

Designing your dream kitchen means that you consider everything from the cabinetry to the tiles, with luxury cooking appliances at the forefront. Sometimes however the laundry system gets overlooked. Whether your laundry is done in a utility room or incorporated into the luxury kitchen itself, having an intelligent laundry system which seamlessly integrates into your kitchen is the mark of great design. The intelligent homeowner chooses a perfectly coordinated laundry system to complement their kitchen, not only in style, but in performance and cutting edge technology. When you choose luxury, your home life will become a whole lot easier (and more beautiful).
