Design Notes
An organized kitchen is the foundation of a smooth cooking experience, allowing you to focus on what truly matters—creating delicious meals. When designing your new kitchen, it’s essential to plan your space thoughtfully. This includes not only considering large items but also measuring smaller essentials, such as cutlery, plates, and platters, to ensure every item has a designated space. A well-organized kitchen isn’t just visually pleasing; it makes daily tasks more efficient and enjoyable.
With a wide variety of unique storage options available, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. That’s where our expert design team at Greenbrook Design comes in. We’ll guide you through the selection process, helping you choose the best solutions tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle. Whether it’s pull-out shelves, custom drawer dividers, or clever corner storage, we have a range of options to transform your kitchen into a well-oiled machine.
Here are a few ways we can help you get the organized kitchen you have always dreamed of having.
Pullouts – Both Large and Shallow
Vertical Storage — The possibilities for pullouts go beyond traditional pantry-style drawers. These special decorative pullouts, designed for specific items, can enhance the functionality of your kitchen. Groceries are easy to find and use, rather than being lost in the back of a cabinet and forgotten. This is an excellent option for using absolutely every inch of your kitchen and keeping it organized.
Making Use Of Every Space!
This homeowner wanted to utilize every available space, so we added panels on the end that open into shallow, adjustable shelves. These shelves are ideal for storing spices, multivitamins, and other small items that tend to get lost in larger pantries. This is one of the many ways to design custom cabinets that can help you organize your kitchen. Read a few tips from Wayfair.
Custom Drawers Can Organize Your Kitchen
Drawers can often provide the convenience of storage and the ease of reaching everything that is needed without having to dig forever. Greenbrook Design offers a wide range of options to suit every need and product imaginable for your kitchen.
Divide and conquer—taking it to the extreme. One of the things only a custom cabinetry company can provide is custom drawers. Whether it is a custom utensil drawer or deep drawers to fit all of the pots and pans, there is a drawer to fit every need. See an example of this in one of our recent projects.
Double Decker Drawers
This is always a client favorite! Double-decker drawers are most often used to store utensils. With the increasing availability of kitchen gadgets, more space is required to store these items for easy access. Over the past few years, these double-decker drawers have been incorporated into many of our clients’ kitchen designs. We use heavy-duty Blum Soft-Close Undermount Drawer Slides in all our drawers.
Silverware Dividers
Keep things in order with drawer organizers – Cluttered drawers can alter a kitchen’s functionality and efficiency. All of our new kitchens come with a complimentary silverware tray divider to help you organize your kitchen. This is how you make use of all the space in a large drawer. Keeping your silverware organized is a must. Sometimes, one is not enough. These are easy and inexpensive to add to your drawers during the design phase of your kitchen.
We use it every day but hardly pay any attention to it, yet it can impact the overall design of the home. We are, of course, referring to your flooring, and its importance should not be overlooked or underestimated. It is the largest design element in the home, which means it tends to serve as the foundation of the look and feel in the room. It has the ability to make or break your space and is subconsciously the first thing we notice in a room. Since it is used consistently, it must be durable and functional for the particular area, whether slip-resistant or waterproof. Flooring should also complement the overall design style you choose and be carefully considered before finalizing your choice. Here are some aspects to remember when making your selection.
The kitchen backsplash tends to be overlooked during the planning session for a renovation, but it has a big impact on the overall look of the design, and it should not be underestimated. To many, it may seem like such a small element, but it has the power to bring style, class, and protection to the heart of the home. When walking through a model home or flipping pages in an interior design magazine, the kitchen always has a backsplash that often draws our eye. Coming in multiple sizes, styles, and shades, the kitchen backsplash has come a long way from being a simple surface to creating a glamorous highlight that immediately draws the eye.
Walker WoodworkingThis deficiency has led to a readjustment of space, a call to renovate the home, and to provide a more functional design for everyone. There are also other reasons motivating homeowners to reevaluate their current living situation, such as greater flexibility at home, an open concept, personal space, and plenty of storage. While kitchens and bathrooms are still among the most renovated areas in the home, new emphasis is being placed on four additional sections in the home, which we want to highlight today.
