Vous aimez le changement, vous allez être servi !
Pour ce projet, plusieurs questions se sont posées :
 Comment dissocier l’entrée de la maison et de la cuisine (la porte d’entrée donnant directement sur la cuisine) ? Comment exploiter au maximum les 3 angles de la pièce ? Comment circuler au mieux dans la cuisine ?
 Comment optimiser les espaces de rangement ?
 La réflexion est une étape primordiale dans la conception d’une cuisine. De cette étape découle la création de la projection 3D et l’installation. Tout doit donc être parfait, à l’image de nos clients. 
Nous avons commencé par créer une entrée en réalisant un claustra sur mesure avec les matériaux des façades et des plans de travail. Il a été parfaitement décoré par mes clients dans un esprit design épuré. Les points cuissons, le point eau et les espaces de rangement ont été positionnés de manière à avoir la meilleure circulation possible. 
En ce qui concerne le rangement, il y a largement la place pour installer tous les ustensiles et appareils électroménager. Vous retrouvez aussi les fameuses colonnes épicerie, une pour le sucré et une pour le salé, qui montent à 2 cm du plafond. Cette nouvelle cuisine n’a plus rien à voir avec l’ancienne pour le plus grand plaisir de mes clients.

 Si vous aussi vous souhaitez transformer votre cuisine en cuisine de rêve, contactez-moi dès maintenant pour planifier votre installation en septembre.

Un nid douillet pour un retour réussi en France - Projet Cardinal
Mon Concept HabitationMon Concept Habitation
Le projet Cardinal a été menée pour une famille expatriée qui faisait son retour en France. Nos clients avaient déjà trouvé leur architecte. Les plans de conception étaient donc prêts. Séduits par notre process rodé : ils se sont tournés vers notre agence pour la phase de travaux. Le 14 mai, ils ont pris contact avec nos équipes. Une semaine après, nous visitions la maison afin de faire un repérage terrain. Le 29 mai, nous présentions dans nos bureaux un devis détaillé et en phase avec leur brief/budget. Suite à la validation de ce dernier, notre conducteur de travaux et son équipe ont lancé le chantier qui a duré 3 mois. Au RDC, nous avons déplacé la cuisine vers la fenêtre pour que nos clients aient plus de luminosité. Ceci a impliqué de revoir les arrivées d’eau, électricité etc. A l’étage, nous avons créé un espace fermé qui sert de salle de jeux pour les enfants. Nos équipes ont alors changé la balustrade, créé un plancher pour gagner en espace et un mur blanc avec une petite verrière pour laisser passer la lumière. Les salles de bain et tous les sols ont également été entièrement refaits.

Entre una cocina cerrada y una abierta al salón (o cocina americana), existe otra alternativa: la cocina con paredes acristaladas. Combina las ventajas de las opciones anteriores. Por un lado se gana en diseño y luminosidad y, por el otro, se mantiene la independencia de la cocina aislándola del resto de la casa de los olores y sonidos propios de esta estancia. Este es el resultado de la cocina con paredes acristaladas que hemos diseñado y montado dentro de la reforma integral que hemos realizado en este espectacular piso de Madrid para unos clientes el triple de espectaculares.

Modern Kitchen with Wood Splashback Ideas and Designs

Want to discover beautiful modern kitchen ideas to inspire your new kitchen design? You’ve come to the right place. You can discover millions of modern kitchen designs and ideas; from kitchen islands and storage units, to all sorts of kitchen lighting ideas, such as pendant lighting or under cabinet lighting. Whether you want inspiration for all-in-one fitted kitchen designs, some small kitchen ideas or maybe just some tips for improving your kitchen decor, there are tons of modern photos to inspire you for your next kitchen project on Houzz.

What kind of modern kitchen design should I go for?

With so many kitchen ideas and photos to look at you might be a bit overwhelmed when it comes to picking your own modern kitchen design. If you are updating your kitchen you know what a big and important decision it is to get the design right – the kitchen can be the hub and heart of the home, and it’s unlikely that you would invest in renovating your kitchen again in a few years. But fear not, focusing first on the important elements like layout, cabinet style, worktops and appliances will help you to bring together your dream kitchen design. Additional elements like kitchen lighting, cupboard storage and decor can come after in the kitchen planning process. A kitchen designer or fitter can help you to decide the layout of your modern kitchen in terms of where to place your kitchen units, appliances and island (if you’re having one), but if you prefer to handle this yourself you can focus on where you want your key elements of your kitchen to be – the oven, hob, sink and fridge. Of course you might be constricted by space, but try to envisage the easiest and most efficient layout based on how you usually like to cook and prepare your food. If you’re fed up of always having to carry dirty pans and pots across the room to the sink, place the sink closer to your oven and hob. Once you have the core elements sorted, consider extra layout considerations, such as where your bins will be stored, where the cutlery draw should be and where small modern kitchen appliances can be installed.

Should I include a kitchen island?

Kitchen island ideas are abundant these days; it seems most kitchen designs include a kitchen island, if not multiple islands. However, if the layout doesn’t work, especially if you have a small kitchen, then there’s no necessity to add in a kitchen island. You can add a breakfast bar or counter to your existing kitchen units, or stick with a good old-fashioned dining table if you don’t need the extra work surfaces. That said, if you do have the room, take a look at some modern kitchen island ideas to see if the designs inspire you for your kitchen. There are a huge variety of island designs to cater to different needs – you can have sinks, ovens, hobs, wine storage and all sorts of drawers and organisers built-in, you can have separate bars and counters that extend from your island, or you could go for a kitchen island on wheels to make your kitchen layout more versatile.

How do I choose my kitchen units and cabinets?

When picking out kitchen units and cupboard styles for a fitted kitchen, you’ll first want to consider the more practical questions – how many units do you need? How many cupboards and drawers do you need? Do you need extra kitchen storage built into your units? It’s always best to overestimate how much kitchen storage you’ll need as we all tend to have a habit of filling up whatever current space we have to the maximum. Next you can consider kitchen cabinet style and colour. Shaker style cabinets and raised and recessed panel cabinets offer a more traditional kitchen cabinet look, while flat panel cabinet doors tend to lend more to the modern and contemporary style. However, going for raised or recessed panel work in a striking colour such as dark blue, green or black can still work with contemporary kitchen ideas. White kitchens can give a sleek and clean feel, but remember you may have to do a bit more cleaning of those cupboard doors if you want everything to stay shiny and fresh. Of course, grey kitchens are the neutral colour choice du jour and can be paired with pale and rich shades alike if you want your fitted kitchen cupboards to contrast with your worktop, splashback, floor, or all of the above. Exposed shelving and storage is also popular for eclectic, Scandi and industrial-inspired looks, so you could opt for glass-fronted cabinets or no wall-mounted cabinets at all. Remember that this will require more restraint in what you can store and more effort in keeping it looking presentable compared to what is stored away hastily behind cupboard doors. The kitchen cupboard handles are also another element to decide upon – do you want traditional round knobs, modern metal bars, country kitchen cup handles or maybe to go ultra sleek with a completely handleless kitchen?

What modern kitchen storage ideas should I consider?

If you want to keep your modern kitchen well-stocked and well-equipped but don’t want it spilling over with clutter, then you’ll need to rely on good kitchen storage. Apart from the usual fitted kitchen cupboards and drawer space, there are many other ways of keeping your kitchen tidy. Whilst a large kitchen pantry is the dream of most homeowners, it can’t always be a reality. However, there are now lots of pull out compartments and drawers with trays and shelving that can act as mini kitchen pantries, and you can install handy cupboard organisers that fit onto the inside of the door to make the most of your cupboard space. You can also look at corner drawers and cupboards that open up to reveal lots of extra storage. Rails or small shelves along your kitchen walls or splashback can help with hanging utensils or pans, or storing small items like herbs and spices in an usually empty space.

Are there small kitchen ideas for small modern spaces?

If you’re working with a galley kitchen, a one-wall kitchen in an open plan space or just a pretty small kitchen, there are some small kitchen ideas that can help you get the most out of your cooking and dining area. If you find that you don’t utilise the back of your cupboards (maybe they become the graveyard for out-of-date tin cans), you could decide to go with shallower kitchen units to free up some extra floor space in front of your cabinets. As mentioned, open shelving or glass-fronted cabinets are a popular trend and they should make the space feel more open and less boxed-in. However, if you have the capacity for it, cupboards and modern kitchen units that maximise the floor-to-ceiling space you have will mean you can use all of that for valuable kitchen storage. Wall or ceiling racks could be a useful solution for hanging pans and pots if you’ve run out of cupboards in which to store them. Kitchen ideas and modern accessories such as baskets, trolleys and storage jars are both aesthetically pleasing and practical as they give you extra storage space. Kitchen appliances like a fridge or dishwasher can be tucked away in built-in units in fitted kitchens so they blend into your layout and don’t make the space look crowded. Discover all the small kitchen ideas you could need by taking a look at photos of compact kitchens.

What sort of modern kitchen lighting should I go for?

In the kitchen you need to have practical lighting – no one wants to chop, cut and cook in a dingy room. Kitchen ceiling lights are probably the best way to go, but should you opt for recessed spotlights or traditional hanging ceiling lights? While spotlight LED kitchen lighting will give you excellent light, they may not fit with a design that’s not contemporary. Traditional chandelier lights could work for other kitchen styles, and of course, kitchen pendant lighting comes in all sorts of styles, colours and designs. While the popular choice is to go with one or two pendant lights over your kitchen island, you could also opt for a single pendant light over your dining space, or a few spaced out across your kitchen. Of course, if you want good lighting for your worktops, under-cabinet lighting is the way forward. Speak to your kitchen supplier about having this pre-installed, or there are a number of easy-install options you can fit yourself or with the help of a lighting expert or electrician.
