A remodel is an opportunity to beautify and organize—but it can be even bigger than that! Maybe your remodel is a chance to reframe how you think of your kitchen space entirely. We loved a recent article by MasterBrand that pointed out 5 Family Friendly features you can incorporate into your kitchen remodel. If you are gathering ideas for your space, check out a few tips from the experts at MasterBrand!
1. Plan for technology. Technology is a part of your family’s existence—and having dedicated spaces for the way we use it can make everything more convenient! Include a charging station where everyone’s cords can be tucked away. And keep the counter paperless: take advantage of the end of cabinets for a message station where you can organize bills, papers from school, and your everyday life.
2. Consider convenient placement to encourage independence. This idea is brilliant for those with little ones. Plan for base cabinets that put items kids need within reach—cups, snack bowls, and snacks, away from the main meal prep station to avoid traffic jams. Add a beverage fridge where they can get their own drinks at their level.
3. Accessorize for your four-legged friends! Your furry friends come with their own food, treats, and needs for space! Use your cabinetry to set up feeding stations, a space to rest, or zones for all your pet’s accessories!
4. Add a beverage station. Perhaps coffee or cocktails is a family member’s passion. Or maybe your family loves entertaining. Set up a dedicated space away from your meal prep area with everything you, your family, or your guests need when parched!
5. Organize with accessories! Cabinet brands know this is a top desire for homeowners who are remodeling—how can I optimize flow, maximize storage, and reduce clutter in this space. Use your cabinet accessories to zone items together that belong together, and realize the saying: a place for everything and everything in its place!
