Deciding on a layout and design for a new kitchen is difficult. Trying to imagine the space when your old kitchen is still in place colours your view and can limit the imagination.  If you looking for something new and impacting getting an online 3D kitchen design service can really help.

Many kitchen companies and online suppliers now will offer either a low cost or free 3D design service. Taking your room measurements, window and door positions and cupboard needs to design your perfect layout.

Top tip - Online Kitchen Design

As always try to check a kitchen companies online review and recommendations before make a decision on who to use for a kitchen design. You may find some companies just flood your space with cupboards simple because it increases their profits rather than genuinely looking at what's needed and what's useful in the space. Sadly more often the free services are they type to over fill your space so it maybe worth paying for the design or a couple design reviews.

The resulting design is often provided in two format a diagram floor plan and a 3D visualisation of the resulting kitchen which will help you see and imagine the results.

Curved Kitchen Units

Curved kitchen cabinets and doors are the new fashion but what's so great about them?

Stunning appearance
The first and probably the biggest upsell to these curved units is its appearance. This stylised look is modern while still offering a softer more gentle look and feel. At a premium price these units offer a more extravagant feel and even buying off the shelf these offer an exclusive and custom built kitchen look.

A better use of corners
Rather than blank kitchen counter ends or doorless ends to a kitchen isle unit these curved units give you more cupboard doors for the space. Giving you more shelf and storage space without reaching in the back corners of units.

Family Safety
With these curved designs you also get the advantage of less sharp points for little ones. Making the design more family friendly than the traditional boxed versions.

Durability
Kitchen corners create potential weak points in the design. Vulnerable points prone to being easily marked or dented. With laminated kitchen this can also create a weak point for peeling or chipping.

Social Orientated Design
Finally these curved designs offer a more circular look and open up more socially inclusive options for areas such as breakfast bars of kitchen counters.

On average we spend over 15 weeks a year in our kitchens?

Did you know a report featured in the Mail Online suggests we spend around 15 weeks a year in our kitchens. That's a massive amount of time... Making the kitchen one of the most used and essential rooms in the house.

The Trick to finding a Kitchen Units Sale

If your looking for a new kitchen and wanting to save money by buying your units when there in the sale then follow our 3 step buying kitchen units sale guide.

There are 3 main reasons units are discounted or put on sale the trick to finding them is to look out for the following:

• Kitchen unit sales by buying onlineBuying online is almost always cheaper than in the showrooms and shops. The reason is simple - online shops don't have the overhead that local showrooms can incur and their ability to work UK wide increases there reach and so margins can be lower and still profitable. Top tip for buying online sale units is to make sure you check reviews to check the companies credibility and unit quality.
  
• Ex-display or marginally marked sale units
  You can find ex-display units in any large kitchen show room and even the big layers like b&q will periodically sell of old display units at a discounted price. However draw backs can include mild damage or fading. 
• Expiring or outdated kitchen ranges or lines on sale
  Some units and styles simple never go sale but different kitchen trends or styles can create ranges which come and go. Expiring lines and ranges will often be put on sale to shift the last few. Again local show rooms and kitchen stores are the best place to start to look for these.

Top Tips for Smaller Kitchen Design

If you have a smaller kitchen it maybe easier in many ways to design your space as there will undoubtedly be less options for you to choose from but you still need to be very savvy to make the most of your space...

Here are our direct online kitchen top tips...

1. Free up your work tops using wall and ceiling storage
Let's face it there is never enough worktop space. If your short on counter top areas try freeing up some space by shifting those pesky counter fillers onto ceiling racks, magnetic wall strips or shelving.

2. Try storage you can move with a rolling shelving unit or counter top
Trolley dollies or the new modern day equivalent rolling units can be a life saver. Giving you the extra storage and also invaluable counter space. Easy to move round they can help use space which isn't used all the time.

3. Seating Storage
If your trying to create more storage try storage seating for any breakfast bar or kitchen dining area.
