<\/p>\n\n

At OAK,<\/strong><\/a> we believe that kitchens<\/strong> are a fundamental space in the home,<\/strong> and in recent years, the room that has undergone the most evolution, both in terms of form and use. It’s no longer just a place to prepare and store food; it has become a potential gathering place. Therefore, when designing a kitchen renovation,<\/strong> we must pay attention to several aspects. The first and most important is that it be comfortable and functional. This includes execution aspects, such as the ability to manufacture custom-made furniture to make the most of every corner, ergonomic considerations, the specific use of each work area, and taking into account all the functions that this space requires. <\/p>\n\n

\"Tips<\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

The architectural<\/strong> structure will be a major factor, as it will determine the shape of the furniture, although nowadays many people choose to knock down some walls and add it to the living-dining area, thus creating situations of companionship while one cooks,<\/strong> establishing a good place to host informal meetings, and also taking advantage of generating a more open and luminous area.<\/p>\n\n

Choosing the materials will also be an important decision. One of the first things to decide is whether to tile the kitchen<\/strong> or simply plaster it for painting. <\/p>\n\n

\"Kitchen

Currently, by protecting the backsplash area (the vertical continuation of the countertop) and the backsplash area, we can guarantee a hygienic kitchen free from moisture problems. Backsplashes can be made of the same material as the countertop, such as Silestone. <\/p>\n\n

Or we can opt for a tile or porcelain stoneware, making sure that the installation will be carried out by a good professional.<\/p>\n\n

The new concept in furniture is governed by the integration of the handles, making it very convenient to open the modules from any point along their entire length, and generating a very orderly aesthetic, with pure lines and minimalist airs.<\/p>\n\n

\"Minimalist<\/p>\n\n

Depending on the desired style, we can also add handles and other bolder colors, creating impressive and elegant kitchens.<\/p>\n\n

\"Renovating

For homes in less urban areas we will need more organic styles, with noble materials such as wood and more rustic, but equally warm, forms.<\/p>\n\n

\"Rustic

As for furniture and accessories, we have endless possibilities. All types of custom-made furniture with drawer units, wardrobes, corner units, “push” opening systems for lower cabinets, hinged doors, electronic controls, glass-fronted display doors for upper cabinets, and pull-out wall units with retractable doors, interior drawers, or shelves. <\/p>\n\n

Furthermore, by adding some accessories such as LED lights in furniture and even in faucets, we qualitatively increase the aesthetic value and generate different atmospheres in the same room.<\/p>\n\n

\"Modern

Kitchen<\/strong> countertops can be made of marble, granite, quartz resins (Silestone), porcelain (Dekton, Neolith) and even wood when we are looking for a certain warmth and we value materials that slightly modify their appearance over time, revealing the original nobility of their composition.<\/p>\n\n

Kitchen<\/strong> islands and peninsulas are becoming increasingly important as they can be blended with the furniture in the living area, creating the aforementioned interaction.<\/p>\n\n
