Classic with a Twist: function

What is the latest "fad" in kitchen design??

ADDING a "kitchen office" to the space!

What more could the homemaker, cook or mom of the house want?? Yes, a place to drop her keys, store her "treasures" and look cute while doing it.

Here are some tips to make the kitchen office adorable, effective and usable:

1. Takes a "home" outside of the main kitchen work area:

2. Provides a place to charge electronics

3. Has a spacious desk

4. Becomes the "pit stop" for notes, reminders and mail

5. Has bookshelves for cookbooks

How cute are these designs? I know you want one too!!

Following our Kitchen series this week ...

Your kitchen is a gathering area.

No matter how wonderful other areas of your house may be, your kitchen

WILL be the magnet.

So how do you make it more sociable while still being functional??

Try these tips!

1. Include a Casual Sitting Area:

Add a small sofa or grouping of chairs so guests will have a place to sit.

2. Create a Cozy Nook:

This can be apart of a table sitting area, and make it look cozy by adding

pillows and drapery!

3. Open up with Barstools:

Everyone loves to be eye level with the cook, and barstools help to get on "their level"!

4. Make it Bright:

No one likes a dingy space... make it light, bright and airy for happiness all around!
