We usually think of kitchens as a warm and cozy environment
but for those who love all things industrial, you can create an industrial
style kitchen that is also functional. Start by looking through different
industrial kitchen design plans and choose one that works the best for the
kitchen you have. You should also measure different spaces in the kitchen to
determine the right sizes of appliances you'll buy for the renovation. Set a
budget for the kitchen design and seek out sales at home improvement stores.
This is important in creating an industrial style kitchen in
your home because the way industrial kitchens are wired and designed are not
the same as you would with a traditional home kitchen. The electrician and
plumber will assist you in safely creating the best industrial kitchen for your
needs. Make sure you choose an electrician and plumber who have at least ten
years of experience and who are licensed.
Purchase Commercial Grade Appliances
These are the appliances used in restaurants and since
you're seeking to bring the restaurant kitchen to your home, you can buy
commercial grade appliances for better storage and efficiency. Stainless steel
appliances are the best commercial appliances to use since it adds to the
overall industrial look in your kitchen.
Put Anti Slip Mats On The Floor
If you want to design the industrial style kitchen with
safety in mind, you should place anti slip mats throughout the floor to avoid
tripping or slipping when carrying hot pots from one section to the next.
Choose Safe Flooring For Your Industrial Kitchen
One idea for industrial style kitchen flooring is to use
laminate hardwood flooring because it is less expensive than other types of
flooring and it lasts many years. The drawback to laminate flooring is that if
one plank gets messed up, the entire flooring needs to be done over. Ceramic
tile flooring also works for industrial style kitchens and you can install
linoleum floors for this kitchen.
Include Tall Storage Shelves
You want to keep your cookware and other kitchen utensils
organized so you'll need to purchase one or two tall storage shelves in the
kitchen so that you will have the adequate storage you need for all the items
in the kitchen. To add the wow factor and a little color to the industrial
kitchen, paint the shelves a bold color.
About The Lighting
Under cabinet lighting is neat for the industrial style kitchen because the purpose of this lighting is to help you with your focused tasks in the kitchen. Track lights have an industrial design and if your kitchen is large or medium sized, track lights would work well. Another idea is to install farmhouse pendant lights and you can also use recessed lighting.
Conclusion
An industrial style kitchen is a great way to bring a little
bit of the restaurant into your home and it is also a low maintenance kitchen
design when cared for properly during the week.
