Kitchen Ideas
We demand a lot from our kitchens. This most popular room must be both a highly functional culinary center and a cozy place to relax. Use the following ideas to make the kitchen more spacious and lively.

1. Most kitchens are littered with kilograms of unnecessary utensils, dishes, canned goods and cereals. How often do you use a waffle iron? Is there any use for dessert plates that colleagues gave you for your birthday? What about the cans in the corner of the refrigerator? Will they ever be your lunch? Get rid of all the excess!
2. Stick to the French rule of mise en place (“everything is in its place”), and then you won’t have to look for the right thing every time.
3. Keep everything in sight and at arm’s length. You don’t have to make archaeological excavations to reach your favorite bucket. Hang pots and pans on hooks, kitchen appliances on a metal string, keep knives on a special stand (so that they do not touch and do not blunt).
4. Lids are always lost. Give them a special place by grouping them, and you will always know where they are.
5. Create kitchen areas. As sellers group products by topic, so you should allocate areas in the kitchen for making coffee, food, and so on.
6. Trays can be used throughout the house, but they look best near the sink and stove. They are very practical (they can be carried and easily washed) and aesthetic (simple objects grouped on a tray turn into a still life in the style of the painter Giorgio Morandi).
