Many homes nowadays have a more flexible view when it comes to the kitchen - it's no longer purely where you cook and wash up. Small or large, a kitchen is the beating heart of any home, it's where our bodies are fuelled, laughs are had, and memories are made. With that being said, it's important that your kitchen can withstand the wear and tear of everyday life, this is where many of us opt for a practical kitchen design to meet both our need for function and style.
A practical kitchen design
When in the design stage of your kitchen renovation, there's a lot to consider... including the layout. The way your kitchen is designed is crucial to ensure the space is most suited to your family's needs. For example, if you are working with a small space, an L-Shape design would work well to provide an open-plan, spacious feel. However, if you have more of a narrow space, a Galley shaped design is ideal to maximise your surface space. You can read more about productive kitchen layouts here.
Another factor to consider when designing a practical yet aesthetically pleasing kitchen is materials. From the flooring and dining chairs to the worktops, you need to think about what materials will work best for your home. Do you need a low-maintenance, hard-wearing countertop? You no longer have to compromise between looks and practicality when choosing your surface as you can have the aesthetic you want and the durability you need with Caesarstone. For example, both our porcelain and quartz surfaces allow you to push boundaries of design whilst remaining long-lasting and easy to maintain.

So having a counter that can withstand that each day will ensure you can focus on the important things in life.
