Whether you have a period property or a new build, a seamless indoor-outdoor kitchen can be the perfect solution for those searching for a closer connection to nature.
Gardening is a calming activity that lowers your stress levels and helps you relax.
Being around nature is supposed to be good for your physical and mental health, with several studies showing that it does wonders for your overall wellbeing.
If you are to opt for a spacious open plan layout, the kitchen should have a clear story of how it will be used, whether your main priority is creating a safe space for entertaining or a cosy hub where family can cook, eat and relax.
Factor in kitchen, living, dining and on the rise, desk/office space. Once these areas have been roughly planned, start looking at the design and flow, creating small zones within the kitchen.
As well as designing highly functional living zones we also need to consider our health and wellbeing in the home.
In blurring the lines between indoors and out, utilising natural materials and letting light flow, you can create a tranquil retreat that allows you to escape and unwind from daily stresses.
