3 Japanese-style kitchen designs to help use space effectively

HẠ MÂY |

According to Aboluowang, some Japanese-style kitchen designs such as drawers hanging down, tilted stoves or terraced sinks make cooking more convenient.

Can be pulled down wall cabinets

When designing kitchen cabinets, many families realize that the wall cabinet part is often not used up. Because it is placed in a fairly high position, taking or putting things away is quite inconvenient. For people with modest heights, each time they need to take things, they often have to stand on the stool. Conversely, if you don't put things inside, this space becomes wasteful.

Therefore, many families can refer to the design of the Japanese. They often use wall-mounted cabinets that can be pulled down. When you need to store or take things, just pull the cabinet down to a position within reach. Some families also install smart cabinet systems, which can be automatically lowered with just a button, making use of them more convenient and safe.

Central Kitchen Island

In many houses in Japan, the kitchen space is often designed open, in which the central kitchen island plays a connecting role between the areas in the house.

This area can be used for cooking and also acts as a dining table in the process of preparing food.

The special feature is that the kitchen counter surface is designed about 20 cm higher than the rest. Thanks to that, common utensils such as spices, cooking utensils or sinks can be neatly arranged below, both discreet and convenient to take. This design helps cooks have a more comfortable posture, reduce fatigue and improve efficiency when cooking.

Convenient step sink

Usually, when designing a kitchen, many families choose single or double sinks. However, some families use terraced sinks with quite different designs.

In fact, this is a large sink but divided into many layers or small compartments inside. This design helps classify utensils when washing and utilize space more efficiently.

For example, after washing dishes or kitchen utensils, users can place them on a higher surface to drain, helping to clean up quickly and hygienically.

In addition, the central part of the sink is often designed with a rotating drainage system, which helps retain most of the waste before the water flows down the drain. As a result, the water drains faster, limits congestion, and makes it more convenient to use the kitchen.
