Kitchen planning can be a tricky process. With so many decisions to be made and choices to be considered, it can easily become overwhelming. From cabinets, to worktops, to kitchen colour schemes, all of your decisions matter. However, it doesn’t have to be. Here at MLS Kitchens, we are dedicated to helping our Manchester based customers find their perfect kitchen. As a result, we have produced this guide to planning the perfect kitchen.

How much work needs to be completed?

The first step is to decide on the work that you need to complete. Do you need an entire new kitchen? Or would new cupboard doors and updated accessories help to bring your kitchen up to code? Whatever you decide, you will not be able to start planning until you know how much work needs to be completed.

Using your kitchen space

Different households use their kitchens in different ways. The way that your kitchen will be used is an important thing to consider. Do you often cook and entertain? Or is your kitchen a family room? Either way, the practicalities of your kitchen will help you direct your plan.

What do you like about your current kitchen?

Take a look at your kitchen and decide what you like about it. Perhaps the layout works well or it has a range of storage? These positive aspects will help you think about your new kitchen and what you require.

Alternatively, it may be tricky to decide on what you do like. So why not look at what you don’t like? Maybe there is not enough work-space, or you would like some seating? Either way, this will help you make decisions about what your perfect kitchen should include.

Find your inspiration

After deciding on how much work you need to complete, and the practicalities of your kitchen, you can find inspiration. Search websites, social media, and magazines to help you find layout choices, styles, colour schemes, and practicalities that you find inspiring.

In summary

Finding what you need to change and thinking practically about your kitchen can help you focus on planing the perfect kitchen. For more help or advice, or for beautiful kitchen ideas, visit us online or in store at MLS Kitchens, Manchester.
