Here at Zesta we have trained professionals with the knowledge to guide you with your selections to which are best suited for you. Below are tips in which will assist you in the overall design of your kitchen and therefore make the journey more approachable and enjoyable.

1)    Light cool neutral colours will make an area appear spacious and generate a harmonious feeling within the space while dark tones may be overwhelming in a small area.

2)    Glossy and light coloured finishes aid in areas with minimal exposure to natural sunlight as they reflect light within the space.

3)    Subtle grey tones utilized as splashback will complement and enhance bright colours.

4)    Contrast is an element which contributes to the overall aesthetics within an area. This can be achieved in a kitchen by having say dark bench tops or vibrant colours against light cabinetry or introducing a textured bench top with a simple finish.

5)    Spotlights are an affordable accessory to generate light within a kitchen whilst simultaneously emphasizing selected areas of detailing within a kitchen.

These guidelines will assist you in achieving an overall impact and finish!

This is something that Zesta keeps in mind when designing kitchens. After all, the way you prepare your meals and your lifestyle will influence what you cook and when. In most instances, the location of the sink, the stove and the hotplate needs to be close together so that the chance of burns is minimised. Adequate bench space is also necessary, so that hot food doesn’t have to be taken far.

The design of a kitchen will be dependent on your lifestyle and your needs, and there are some aspects to consider. When you’re cooking there will be items you use frequently, and these should be positioned so they are easy to access while cooking. Consider where drawers that house pots and pans will be located, as too low or too high can result in unnecessary bending or straining. Where possible, avoid building kitchen cupboards to ceiling level as these will require a chair or ladder for access, and can be a hazard in the kitchen.

Zesta have over 35 years experience when it comes to kitchen design, and will take into account the family’s needs and requirements when putting together a design. A design consultant can assess your current space, and then work with your needs to put together a design that takes into account your requirements, now and in the future. If there are young children about, then cupboards and drawers that are designed to house knives, scissors or poisonous liquids should be added to an out of reach location.

Ultimately, the design of your kitchen should take into consideration your lifestyle and your environment, with practical and modern kitchens that will be suitable to your lifestyle for a long time to come.

There are many benefits with a kitchen company – to start with they have a showroom to visit, displaying their kitchen range to view and feel the product to your likes. Secondly, staff are experienced with all product knowledge and experienced design consultants visit your home to design a 3D kitchen plan showing real life kitchens. Kitchen designs are easier to envisage with the resources available to a kitchen company.

Zesta Kitchens have a supply of kitchen products ready to go and as they can order in large quantities due to their size they can keep the prices down. Kitchen companies are up to-date with the latest products and fashion, even traveling overseas to Europe, to see what is happening there when it comes to new kitchen designs. They then bring this knowledge back to compliment their kitchen designer skills in Melbourne.

Each person is experienced in their field and should a worker fall ill or not be able to work, they have other experienced tradesmen ready to go. How many stories have you heard, tradesmen (cabinet maker) is sick and can’t come back for a few weeks, well this leaves you with an incomplete kitchen and in an absolute mess – something you can avoid.

When considering kitchen design ideas we must look at the ease we can prepare and store food. The placement of the stove and the sink should be close to each other this will reduce the risk of scalds. Also having bench tops either side of the stove avoids the need to carry hot foods and liquids long distances.

Storage is also another way of avoiding accidents in the kitchen, and should be considered when it comes to new kitchen designs. Items that are used frequently should be stored in easy reach and at a convenient height, preferably between shoulder and hip height. Also by incorporating large drawers into kitchen designs could reduce the need for bending and reduce back strain. Kitchen overhead cupboards should not be built to ceiling height as this stops the need for ladders or even people trying to use unsafe chairs to stand on in order to reach items from the top of these cupboards.

To design a kitchen that is safety conscious we must look at each family’s demographics. Of course if there are small children involved safety is paramount. The design should be able to be flexible and grow with the family, and this is where designer kitchens are important.

Drawers and cupboards where knives, scissors, matches and poisons are stored should not be able to be accessible to children. This can be done by clever planning and organizing. Safety locks which can be easily removed when not required are a must. We could also consider a safety gate to the entrance to the kitchen to stop access to the kitchen when cooking. A designer kitchen should incorporate all the requirements of you and your family.

By designing a kitchen for the needs of the family and keeping the safety factor as part of our design, and our kitchen designer team in Melbourne can design a sleek practical modern kitchen which will be the heart of the home.
