What to think about when designing an open plan kitchen

Designing an open plan kitchen

If you’re planning to create an open plan kitchen and living space, there are a few ways of doing this. You might look to either move house, revise the internal layout of your home to make different use of the existing space, or consider extending your home to give you a greater floor plan to work with.

The kitchen is often the hardest working room in your home and multi-function spaces continue to become ever popular.

At Bower Willis Designs in Shipston-on-Stour, we are driven by our dedication to design a luxury space that will work for your family in all the ways that matter to you; a space to cook, relax, entertain and so much more.

Your kitchen may also be a space to work in, with laptops, meetings, and workspaces required during the daytime.

Perhaps you love to cook and explore new ways of preparing delicious, nutritious meals.

At weekends, you may enjoy inviting friends and family to enjoy meals around the table or for a relaxed games night together.

And in the evenings, what better way to unwind than with your feet up to watch a movie or read a few chapters of your favourite book.

A luxury open plan kitchen design will allow you to enjoy all of these activities in a versatile, beautiful space in your home.

How to imagine how an open plan kitchen might look

We appreciate how difficult it can be to visualise how your new open plan living space might look, which is why we use a variety of tools, techniques and technology to help you get a feel for your new kitchen before the builders arrive.

Rearranging kitchen units in an existing space is much easier to visualise than a room that doesn’t exist yet. So imagine being able to virtually ‘stand’ your new open plan kitchen before you commit to any building work.

You can choose which island shape will work best, appreciate the open plan cooking, living and relaxing zones that have been designed, understand the importance of lighting, and judge whether you’ll have space for sofas and a dining table – plus make key architectural design decisions such as window, radiator and wall placement with confidence.

What kitchen design style can I choose in my open plan kitchen design?

When designing your luxury open plan kitchen, we will help you explore a variety of kitchen design styles to suit your tastes, trends and personal style.

Contemporary kitchens can be characterised by sleek, angular design and contemporary materials, and a Bower Willis Designs open plan kitchen will make an architectural impact on your home. Individual and stylish, modern kitchens enjoy clean, linear simplicity with long, straight handles or a handleless opening for a blank looking finish.

Or if you’re looking for traditional style with a contemporary twist, Bower Willis kitchens in Shipston-on-Stour boast timeless elegance and effortless practicality. With an extensive choice of colours, materials and styles to choose from and a host of innovative design and storage features, your kitchen will be a joy to spend time in whether you’re cooking, working or entertaining.

Can you help with project management of our open plan kitchen design?

At Bower WIllis Designs, as well as walking you through each stage of the kitchen design, we can also manage the project for you. Liaising with architects, scheduling builders, tilers, plumbers and electricians can be a time sensitive process. We can recommend local tradespeople who we regularly work with, or we are happy to work with your team to ensure the whole project runs smoothly.
