A relaxing afternoon spent dining with your family in the breakfast nook
of your newly-decorated kitchen presents a beautifully vivid image of
leisure and fun social activity. We need a few more of these images to
fill our lives within this seemingly impersonal and highly urbanized
society. Modern kitchen designs are promoting this idea of open planning to accommodate an easy and accessible social setting that will induce people to spend more time in the kitchen
and enjoy the company of people that occupy their lives. The designs
are set in a more interactive mode and the elements tend to be more
attractive to persuade people to relax and stay.

Kitchens nowadays not only deal with food preparation but they have
expanded their function into more social and interactive activities such
as dining and entertaining. They have bar counters incorporated in
their designs to provide extra dining space and conversation area for
the people who frequent the kitchen. The styles vary from traditional
tavern-like ones that reveal a more formal setting, contemporary ones
with tiled top surfaces and framed glass cabinet faces beneath, to very
sleek and modern ones that only have granite or similar surfaces and
stainless steel tubular vertical support. The breakfast nooks are even
more adventurous in their designs with amazing sculpture-like dining
chairs and elegant pedestal tables. Most breakfast nooks are permanently
situated near a window or a large corner of the kitchen. They either
use window seats for the built-in chairs or customized seats that are
attached to the walls. The loose chairs usually have matching fabric
upholstery as that of the built-in seats and the table design
complements the chairs so as to appear as a cohesive and unified dining
area.
Modern kitchen design still has
room for improvement. Newly discovered materials that are more durable
and long-lasting are gaining popularity. Some of them are quite
expensive yet but only because they cater to an exclusive clientele.
Less costly materials that will replicate these materials will soon
reach the market. As the demand for more modern materials grows, it can
be expected that higher quality kitchen design
materials will become for affordable for the average homeowner. Home
stores and showrooms are the primary source for materials for kitchen design, but the internet is also pushing forward for a wider audience which equates to more people being able to find the products
they want. Every possibility for change and enhancements is being
looked into so that kitchen layouts and designs will be easier to plan,
construct and achieve in the future.
