There are countless ways of using a mini kitchen. From small office kitchens to fitting out a compact flat or private apartment, a mini kitchen delivers all the features of a standard kitchen but in a contained unit.
When buying a mini or compact kitchen, the first step for customers is to confirm the size of their unit. Professional mini kitchens start at around 900mm and stretch up to just under 2000mm – with a plethora of different layouts and designs available. Of course, for most customers, the layout and build of their mini kitchen unit will be determined by the space available.
However, that’s not to say that your mini kitchen has to present the bland aesthetic upheld by everyone else. In this article, we share three of the best ways to personalise a mini kitchen and integrate it seamlessly into your space.
1. Colourful Touches
While the build of a mini kitchen is pre-determined according to the unit that you select, there are choices that each customer has. The splashback which sits behind the hob segment of the utility surface is one of the easiest components to personalise. Splashbacks can be colourful, patterned, reflective, or textured.
And that’s not all. Additional features that the customer adds on delivery of their unit can also add a touch of colour and personality to a compact kitchen. Kettles, toasters, tea towels, and crockery are all quick and easy elements to hand-pick and tailor to your own preference.
2. Inside-Outside Kitchen Prep Spaces
Did you know that outdoor compact kitchens are just as popular as indoor ones?
An increasing number of customers and homeowners are investing in outdoor compact kitchen units, perfectly bridging inside-outside living with a kitchen prep area to support BBQs, pizza ovens, and al fresco dining spaces.
If you want to personalise the finish of your home and really tie your mini kitchen into the way you like to live and entertain/host at your home, then consider the benefits of an inside kitchen vs. an outside kitchen. An expanse of patio or a balcony can become an excellent canvas for your very own outdoor kitchen!
3. Explore Additional Kitchen Features
Finally, when it comes to ordering your mini kitchen from a reputable local supplier, it’s not just the unit itself that you will buy. Manufacturers offer a variety of additional features which include tap upgrades, wall cupboards for extra storage, extractor fans, vent covers, microwave cupboards, and more.
Depending on the space available, spanning both the surface itself and the wall surrounding your mini kitchen, opting for these added features can be a great way to really bring your mini kitchen to life within the setting of your home.
