Kitchen Renovation / Kitchen Remodeling Kuala Lumpur Malaysia


  1. The “work triangle’ is the underlying principle of good kitchen design. It simply means that you should be able to move freely an easily between the cooker, fridge and sink. Bear this in mind when planning your layout.
  2. A truly functional kitchen contain all the appliances you need, together with plenty of storage and work surface areas. In a small room, it may be tricky to find the space for everything, but remember that you can always look for combine appliances, or you may be able to find alternative housing for a freezer or a washing machine in nearly room.
  3. Design kitchen lighting so that your work areas are clearly illuminated, either with wall down lights or lights mounted beneath wall units. For general lighting, track system are useful and inexpensive, while inset ceiling spotlights are smart and unobtrusive. Install a dimmer to create a more relaxing ambience if you are going to eat in the kitchen. In a separate dining room, a low pendant over the table creates a sense of drama.
  4. Flooring in the kitchen should be hard-wearing, long-lasting and able to withstand splashes, drip and frequent cleaning.
  5. Don’t feel obliged to go for a conventional fitted kitchen – unfitted version can look fantastic, and you can take them with you when you move. Or you could opt for a combination of the two, with a few built-in cupboards plus dresser and some other free-standing furniture.
  6. Kitchen wall coverings should be easy to clean, tough and impervious to steam, with waterproof, wipe able splash back behind the hob and sink.
  7. When it comes to choosing a work surface, remember that, while style is important, it should be easy to clean, hard-wearing and resistant to knife marks, heat, steam and water. Buy the thickest you can afford, and in most cases budget for it to be fitted by a professional.
  8. In any eating area, whether it’s separate dining room, one end of the kitchen or living room, or even on a balcony or patio, try to provide comfortable seating, a spacious table and gentle but adequate lighting, so that the space is conducive to relaxed enjoyment of a good meal.
  9. Even an ordinary kitchen can be made look special with clever displays of attractive crockery, glassware, gadgets or other kitchenalia.
