The kitchen is the heart of the home. It doubles as a workspace and a gathering place. More often the island becomes a place for food prep, conversation, homework, or simply relaxing. Creating a space that reflects so many uses requires great design – here are our favorite design ideas incorporated into kitchens we build:
1. Plenty of workspace
A spacious island (included in every Charter home) and a stretch of counter space provide the perfect amount of prep-space, work-space, and serving space in your kitchen.
2. Well planned storage
Wide drawers and varying sizes of cabinetry allow you to have a place for everything, and make it easier to keep everything in it’s place.
3. Natural light
Well placed windows create an open and airy kitchen – and an inviting space to gather.
4. Plenty of seating
Breakfast rooms provide additional space to enjoy your kitchen – sip some morning coffee or curl up with a book in the evening.
Like any ingredients – a well designed kitchen can be made to your personal taste – a perfect expression of your lifestyle.
