Is it possible to place a refrigerator in the kitchen?

A refrigerator should be placed next to the sink for easy access. It should not block traffic, nor be too close or too far from the stove.

Where do I start when planning a kitchen?

Whether you're remodelling an existing space or designing a dream kitchen from scratch, there are plenty of decisions.

Spend some time looking for inspiration online before you start. Look for photos of kitchens that inspire you. Note down design ideas. Take some time to write down your ideas and then sit down with a pen.

Now, think about how you can improve upon these spaces. What could you make better? What would you add? If you want to get creative, why not ask someone who knows what she's talking about?

Once you've figured out what you want to accomplish, it's time to start. Start with the basics. Get rid of all unnecessary clutter. Remove appliances that aren't used often. Replace worn-out fixtures by newer versions

Next, find tight areas in your kitchen. This means finding places where there isn't room for storage or countertops. You can think of ways to maximize these spaces. These spots could be turned into wine cellars, or pantries.

Make sure to think about lighting. Is there a spot that could benefit from a brighter light? A wall sconce might brighten up dark corners.

After you've made your improvements list, it's time to implement them!

You don't have to know everything right away. You can just keep going until you have it all figured. Don't forget to enjoy it every day!
