Tips on Designing a Minimalist Kitchen



Minimalist design involves doing away with clutter and creating a simple yet functional space. Such design principles can be applied to any part of a home remodel, including the kitchen. In this blog post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Greater Rockwall shares some design tips on minimalist design that can be applied to your kitchen.

Choose the Right Materials

Durable and low-maintenance materials are ideal for countertops, cabinets and flooring because keeping them at their best condition requires minimal effort. A cohesive color scheme that focuses on neutral tones can create a unified and calming atmosphere. Texture and visual interest can be added through materials like wood, stone or tiles while keeping a minimalist look.

Start With Just the Essential Appliances

It’s tempting to buy equipment with all the bells and whistles, but they may not be a great fit for your minimalist kitchen remodel. Instead, think about appliances that are essential to your daily routine. Choose the ones that have the features you need, but are visually and functionally sleek and simple. Once you have decided on the ones that you need, consider features like integration with smart technology and wall-mounted types (as opposed to freestanding ones) to streamline your kitchen and make daily tasks more efficient.

Create a Functional and Efficient Layout

The concept of minimalism applies not just for function and aesthetics, but also for economy of movement; the easier you move around the kitchen, the more efficient you will be. The kitchen work triangle is a good starting point. The ideal distance between its three points, which usually consists of the sink, stove and refrigerator, ensures efficiency when moving to any one of them. In larger kitchens, the points of the triangle can consist of work areas such as wash, storage and cooktop.

Add Personal Touches

Applying minimalism to your kitchen design doesn’t mean you have to make it look sterile. Personal touches are what gives the kitchen warmth and makes it feel like part of a home. Artwork and other small dĂ©cor, when used sparingly and with taste, pops out and complements a minimalist look.
