Resisting minimalist tendencies in your home improvements (Part 2)

March 18, 2010
Posted in Kitchen Design — Written by Justin

The last article began a discussion about trying to avoid using too much minimalism in your interior home design. Having already discussed the way incorporating ornate bathroom fittings can help transform your bathroom into a luxurious space, rather than merely a practical place for your daily routine, it is perhaps pertinent to follow this up with a discussion about the kitchen.

Kitchen

In a similar fashion to the bathroom, intricate and ornate fittings can turn your kitchen into a really elegant and lavish space. The kitchen does not have to be all practical and it is likely that you have already covered the basics of practicality in your layout plans, with kitchen worktops and cabinets designed to meet all your needs in terms of gastronomic preparations.

With your kitchen taps and kitchen sinks, you have the opportunity to make room for luxury. Incorporating ceramics and granite into the kitchen gives it an incredibly rich aesthetic appeal. Ornate fittings and kitchen door handles made from cast iron or porcelain, but still in keeping with the rest of your kitchen design, really appeal to a greater appreciation of luxury design.

A word of warning: whenever you are trying to step away from minimalism, make sure that you don’t go too far in the opposite direction. Too much extravagance can look over-the-top.
