designing kitchen

tajuk apakah ini? saya dan suami kept bickering on the kitchen design. poyo macam dapur besar. padhal panjang x lebar = 3 langkah x 3 langkah T_T

seriously its hard to fit so many appliances in a 'big' kitchen. we have plenty of electrical wares as wedding gifts. i love most of it - make it all. except the toast maker because we received 2 of it, given to fatin as her wedding gift (alarmak, fatin jangan kecik hati eh). memanjangkan hadiah, sebab ada 2 kan. we have 2 coffee maker and 2 blender. but now with iskandar, i am glad we have 2 of it. 1 could be used to prepare his meal. the rest, 1 each.

anyway, if u have this 3 equipment - you have a kitchen. they are:
1. sink
2. stove
3. fridge

we still do not have item no. 2, so we are yet to have a kitchen. my husband wants to have the stove outside at 'wet kitchen' while i wish to have it inside because i want to use the 'wet kitchen' as laundry area.

i would really love to have a wet kitchen. if only we have a larger space! since we don't, make do around with what you have.

finally i managed to changed hubby's mind after showing him article by ikea on the triangle concept (image below courtesy of ikea online catalog). stove - fridge - sink : these 3 should be within the shape of a triangle to optimise ones movement. if we were to have the stove in the wet kitchen area, the fridge and sink would be in a different room. hence there won't be a triangle. conclusion: the 'wet kitchen' is out -yeay =)


now i really do not want to make a hole on the existing kitchen counter. so the stove might need to be stove cum oven. still discussing with dear hubby, it was his proposal to have stove + oven.
