Maximising Bench Space with Clever Storage Solutions

In most households the kitchen is a buzzing hub; a space where cooking, dining and socialising all come together. Striking the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics is crucial when designing your dream kitchen.

One of the most common challenges in kitchen design is maximising benchtop space. This is where innovative cabinet designs come into play, offering practical solutions to enhance both organisation and functionality. Luma are experts at utilising space while maintaining style. Here’s our guide to maximising bench space when thinking about your new kitchens layout.

Multi-functional islands

Kitchen islands are not just for additional counter space. By incorporating cabinets and drawers into your island, you can store pots, pans, or even integrate appliances like dishwashers or microwaves, freeing up vital bench space.

These designs not only maximise the efficiency of your kitchen layout but also contribute to a cleaner, more streamlined appearance. With thoughtful planning, a kitchen island can become the multifunctional centrepiece of your kitchen as well as a meeting point for the entire family.

Vertical storage solutions

Maximise your kitchen’s vertical space by installing cabinets that extend all the way to the ceiling. 

These tall cabinets provide additional storage while also helping to keep your benchtops clear of clutter, creating a more organised and spacious kitchen.

Additionally, the extra height can be aesthetically pleasing, giving your kitchen design a grander look and allowing you to make the most of every inch of available space, from floor to ceiling.

Rotating Shelves

Kitchen corners can often be tricky spaces to design around, but they don’t have to be wasted.

Corner cabinets can be equipped with rotating shelves or pull-out racks that transform these areas into highly functional storage spaces.

Rotating shelves make it easy to access items stored at the back of a cabinet, ensuring that no space goes to waste. This is a simple way to make sure you utilise every inch of cupboard space, while keeping clutter off the worktop.

Custom Cabinetry

Every kitchen has its own unique shape, size and style. Custom fit cabinetry not only allows you to tailor your cabinets to fit perfectly in your kitchen, but allows you to determine things like drawer and shelf depth. 

For instance, dedicated wine racks can be incorporated, keeping bottles off the bench, or even deep drawers so you can store small appliances like toasters and kettles, keeping them hidden yet accessible. 

Luma offers a wide range of colours and finishes to completely personalise your cabinetry, so it’s a custom fit and style.

Whether you’re designing a new kitchen or looking to upgrade your current space, these tips can help you make the most of every inch.

Autumn Kitchen Décor Ideas: Embracing Classic Cosiness

Autumn Kitchen Décor Ideas: Embracing Classic Cosiness

­As the leaves turn golden and the air becomes crisp, Autumn invites us to embrace cosy and happy times at home, with our kitchens at the heart of it all. To make this season truly special, let’s explore some stunning décor ideas that exude warmth and timelessness. Whether you prefer trending styles or classic elements, these six ways to create classic cosiness will stand the test of time.

Embrace the Colours of the Season
Fall in love with a darker colour palette for your kitchen. Consider hues like hunter green and olive green, which were very on trend and continue to create a classic, warm, and welcoming atmosphere. Incorporate matte black as a predominant finish, beautifully contrasted by rich coffee browns, shades of grey, taupe, and biscuit beige. Black can also be used as a crisp accent colour in lighter kitchens, adding a touch of drama without darkening the space completely. If black feels too harsh, opt for pewter and gunmetal shades to add texture and depth. For a truly cosy ambience, think about darker floors to complement light-coloured walls or cabinetry.

Curate a Kitchen Wall Gallery
Unleash your creativity and embark on a unique kitchen wall gallery project. There are no hard and fast rules for this Autumn endeavor. Gather your favourite photos and other cherished objects, and consider framing them in various styles to express your personality through kitchen wall décor. Framed album covers, vintage fabric swatches, antique dishes, baskets, or a collection of mirrors can all add character and life to your kitchen wall. Before hanging your collection, arrange the items on the floor to plan the best placement and ensure a cohesive arrangement.

Make a Solid Splashback your Go-To
Splashbacks have evolved beyond being merely practical elements in the kitchen; they can now become stunning focal points. Consider using a single slab of beautiful engineered stone to create a custom look. Match or contrast it with your benchtops for a bold effect. Engineered stone offers both beauty and practical cleaning benefits compared to traditional tiles and grout. A stone splashback naturally catches the eye and becomes a captivating feature visible from a distance.

Merge Old and New
Embrace the vintage vibe in your Autumn kitchen by adopting the emerging trend of mixing classic and modern pieces together. Move away from uniform designs and explore the beauty of individual pieces of furniture or décor items. Incorporate natural materials like reclaimed wood for chopping or serving boards, and consider vintage light fixtures as pendant lighting. This approach not only adds character and charm to your kitchen but also promotes sustainability by giving new life to old and existing elements.

Give Raw Materials the Benchtop Spotlight
Modern kitchen design celebrates the beauty of raw materials and allows them to shine. Engineered stone benchtops perfectly align with this philosophy, offering exceptional qualities. Consider the stunning range from Caesarstone or the subdued accents, granite-styling, or innovative industrial concrete look from Cosentino’s engineered stone collection. With an enormous array of colours to choose from, you can easily integrate your stone benchtops with light and dark kitchen cabinets.
Luma-DIY-Kitchens-Blog-Autumn-Decor-Benchtops

Bring Back the Banquette
As our kitchens become more communal spaces, there’s a trend emerging of built-in benches, booths, and banquette-style seating. These features encourage gathering in the kitchen for cooking, casual entertainment, or simply hanging out informally. They offer a great use of space and provide comfortable seating for relaxation in the heart of the home, possibly taking the place of traditional kitchen island benches and breakfast bars.

This Autumn, let Luma’s kitchen décor ideas infuse your home with classic cosiness, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for you and your loved ones to enjoy together. Embrace the seasonal colours, unleash your creativity, and integrate timeless elements to craft a kitchen that will be cherished for years to come.

8 Reasons to Upgrade Your Kitchen Doors

Planning a kitchen renovation can be daunting, but updating your kitchen cabinetry could be as effective as a whole kitchen redo. Here are 8 reasons we think you should update your kitchen doors.

Personal Style

Our style changes over time, so how do we keep the look and feel of our home current? Switching up your cabinet doors can make a tired-looking kitchen modern and fresh. You could also consider new tapware or handles for the ultimate makeover.

Renovating your whole kitchen might not be within your budget, but updating your doors and handles will help reduce your spending and make a big impact.

Wear & Tear

Laminate doors can begin to look worn and weathered because they’re used so frequently. A simple update to your doors could make your kitchen feel fresh again. In well-loved kitchens, wear and tear brings potential safety hazards, like splintering edges. This can be dangerous for little ones and even yourself! Keep your kitchen safe by giving updating your cabinet doors. 

Hygiene

Did you know worn edges make it easy for bacteria to hide in your cabinetry? Moisture and grease from cooking can seep into wood, causing mould to develop. New cabinets could be an even better solution than your monthly deep clean!

Get Stuck into some DIY

Love getting your hands dirty? Installing new cabinets could be your next project! Select which Polytec cabinetry you’d like to use from Luma.Shop and you’ll be on your way to installing your doors in no time.

4 Stylish Appliances for an Entertainers Kitchen

4 Stylish Appliances for an Entertainers Kitchen

As we have said time and time again, the kitchen is the heart of any home! As our culinary horizons have broadened, so too has our cooking technology, allowing home cooks to experiment, share and enjoy a variety of home cooked meals. If you’re a keen home cook who loves to entertain, we’ve got the latest in stylish appliances that make any entertainer’s dream kitchen complete.

Induction Cooktop

There are so many reasons we could harp on about why an induction cooktop is the right choice for your home. It is energy efficient, extremely safe, more precise and super easy to clean.

On top of that, it is incredibly sleek. Every modern kitchen should include an induction cooktop to cater for our evolving dietary requirements and health needs. Easing the cooking workload – it allows you to enjoy more time with your guests rather than slaving away in the kitchen! 

Self-Cleaning Oven

Entertaining is only fun when you actually get to join in the party, and we all know that the host can sometimes miss out on all the action. These progressive, self-cleaning ovens can help the hosts wipe their hands of clean-up duty and join the party!

Pyrolytic ovens  self-clean using pyrolysis (extreme heat) up to 500°C, reducing grime, grease and food residues to a fine ash that are simply swept away. All you have to do is wipe over with a soft, damp cloth to complete a thorough oven clean and leave it ready for your next party. 

Wine Storage Unit/Fridge

It is time to sing the praises of an easily accessible wine fridge! It is a must-have for the in-the-know hostess. With its slick design, it compliments any entertainers kitchen and what compliments a meal more? A glass of wine of course!

The Dishwasher

While a dishwasher may sound a little less sexy than a wine fridge, we consider this appliance the unsung hero of at-home gatherings. A sleek integrated dishwasher not only looks smart in your kitchen but will ensure all your dishes, platters, utensils, and serving bowls will fit inside once the last guest has left!

Clever Solutions: Maximising Space in Your Small Bathroom Renovation

Are you facing the challenge of renovating a compact bathroom? There are innovative ways to make the most of your limited space without compromising on style or functionality. We’re going to share five innovative ways to maximise space in your small bathroom renovation.

Wall-Mounted Storage

Embrace vertical space by installing wall-mounted shelves, cabinets, or baskets. These storage solutions not only free up floor space but also keep your essentials neatly organised and within easy reach. Consider opting for sleek, minimalist designs to maintain a sense of openness in your bathroom.

Optical Illusions with Mirrors

Mirrors are a powerful tool for creating the illusion of a larger space and adding a touch of glamour. Install a large mirror or an array of smaller mirrors to reflect light and visually expand the room. Alternatively, mirrored cabinets are a useful way of providing storage while giving the illusion of more bathroom area.

Compact Fixtures and Fittings

Choose space-saving fixtures and fittings specifically designed for small bathrooms. Look for slimline toilets, corner sinks and narrow vanities that are proportionate to the size of your space. Wall-hung toilets and sinks not only save floor space but also give your space a modern look and feel.

Glass Shower Screens

Replace shower curtains with sleek glass shower screens to open up the visual flow of your bathroom. Frameless or semi-frameless designs create a seamless look and allow natural light to penetrate the space, making it feel more expansive. Consider installing a walk-in shower to eliminate the need for a bulky enclosure altogether.

Multi-Functional Furniture

Incorporate furniture pieces that serve more than one purpose. For example, a vanity with built-in storage or a mirrored cabinet with integrated lighting can maximise both utility and space efficiency. A mirrored shaving cabinet is a great way for extra storage without compromising floor space.

Tackling a small bathroom renovation shouldn’t feel like a massive challenge. By putting these five clever strategies into action, you can turn your snug space into a stylish and practical retreat. With a bit of thoughtful planning and some smart design decisions, you’ll be surprised at how much you can accomplish in even the cosiest of bathrooms.

Update Your Kitchen Handles: A Guide to Measuring, Choosing and Installing New Handles

Transforming your kitchen’s look can be as simple as updating the handles on your cabinets and drawers. This small change can have a big impact, refreshing the entire space. Here’s a step-by-step guide to measuring, choosing, ordering online, and replacing your kitchen handles, ensuring a result you’ll love.

Step 1: Measuring for the Perfect Fit

The first step in your kitchen handle upgrade is to measure the existing handles. This is crucial for ensuring the new handles fit perfectly. Use a tape measure to determine the distance between the screws on your current handles, measuring from the centre of one screw to the centre of the other. Record these measurements in millimetres for the most accuracy.

Be sure to measure all doors and drawers as your kitchen may contain a range of handle sizes.

Step 2: Choosing Your New Handles

Now comes the fun part – choosing your new handles! Consider the style and finish that will best complement your kitchen’s design. Do you prefer a modern look or something more traditional? Would brushed nickel, matte black, or polished brass best suit your cabinets? Online stores like Luma.Shop offer a wide range of options, making it easy to find handles that match your personal style and kitchen’s aesthetic.

Step 3: Ordering Online

Once you’ve selected your new handles, it’s time to order them online. This process is convenient and allows you to browse a vast selection from the comfort of your home. When ordering, double-check your measurements and the quantity you need. Most online retailers, including Luma, provide product details to assist.

Step 4: Installing Your New Handles

With your new handles collected or delivered, it’s time to install them. This DIY task is straightforward and can be completed with just a screwdriver or drill. Remove the old handles, align the new ones with the existing holes, and screw them in place. It’s a satisfying process that instantly upgrades the look of your kitchen.

 

Enjoying the Results

The final step is to step back and admire your handiwork. Replacing kitchen handles is a simple yet effective way to refresh your space. It’s amazing how such a small change can make a big difference, giving your kitchen a new lease on life. You’ll appreciate the updated look every time you’re in the kitchen, and it’s a change that can even increase the appeal of your home.

Updating your kitchen handles is a quick, cost-effective way to revitalise your kitchen. By carefully measuring, selecting, ordering, and installing new handles, you can enjoy a refreshed kitchen that brings you joy every day.

Choosing the Right Sink for Your Kitchen or Bathroom Renovation

Luma.Shop Kitchen Renovation DIY Online

Choosing the Right Sink for Your Kitchen or Bathroom Renovation

When it comes to kitchen and bathroom renovations, selecting the right sink is a decision that combines practicality with style. The sink is not just a functional element; it’s a central piece that can define the room’s aesthetic and usability. Whether you’re going for a modern, traditional, or rustic look, there are several factors to consider.

Material Matters

The first step in choosing the right sink is selecting the material. For kitchens, stainless steel remains a popular choice due to its durability and ease of maintenance. However, if you’re looking for something more unique, consider options like granite composite, which is known for its resistance to scratches and chips. For bathrooms, porcelain is a classic choice, offering a sleek and clean appearance, while materials like glass or stone can add a luxurious touch.

Size and Configuration

The size of your sink should align with the scale of your room and the countertop. In kitchens, large, deep basins are ideal for heavy-duty tasks, whereas smaller, shallower sinks may suffice in less busy spaces. Double sinks can be a great choice for multitaskers, providing separate areas for washing and rinsing. In bathrooms, consider how much counter space you need and whether you prefer a single or double sink.

Style and Design

Sinks can be a statement piece, especially in modern designs. Undermount sinks, where the rim is not visible above the countertop, offer a sleek look and make cleanup easier. Farmhouse or apron-front sinks add a rustic, charming element to kitchens. For bathrooms, vessel sinks, which sit on top of the counter, can serve as a focal point and come in various shapes and materials.

Taps and Fixtures

The right tap or faucet can complement your sink beautifully. Consider the finish and shape of your faucets and how they harmonise with the sink. In bathrooms, space-saving designs might be ideal, while in kitchens, you might opt for faucets with pull-down sprayers for added functionality

Choosing the right sink for your kitchen or bathroom renovation is about balancing functionality with aesthetics. Consider the material, size, style, and accompanying fixtures to find a sink that not only meets your practical needs but also enhances the overall design of your space. Remember, the right sink can elevate your renovation project, turning an ordinary room into a stunning and efficient space. To see our entire range of sinks and tapware visit our website.

Kitchen Styles We Expect We’ll See in 2024

As we step into 2024, the world of kitchen design continues to evolve, blending functionality with aesthetics to create spaces that are both inviting and practical. This year, we’re seeing a diverse range of styles, each catering to different tastes and lifestyles. Let’s dive into some of the most popular kitchen styles of 2024.

Minimalist Modern:

The minimalist trend remains strong in 2024, with kitchens embracing clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and a monochromatic colour palette. This style often features integrated appliances and hidden storage solutions, making it ideal for those who cherish simplicity and order. Materials like stainless steel, glass, and polished concrete are prevalent in these kitchens.

Farmhouse Chic:

Contrasting the modern minimalist, the farmhouse chic style continues to charm with its rustic and cosy feel. This style is characterised by natural wood finishes, vintage accessories, and open shelving. Farmhouse kitchens often feature a large, welcoming island and are perfect for those who enjoy a more traditional, homey kitchen environment.

Sustainable and Eco-Friendly:

Sustainability has become a significant focus in kitchen design. Eco-friendly kitchens in 2024 feature recycled materials, energy-efficient appliances, and a design that emphasises natural light. Homeowners are increasingly choosing sustainable woods and biodegradable materials, reflecting a growing consciousness about environmental impact.

Industrial Edge:

The industrial style has evolved in 2024, blending raw elements like exposed brick and metal with sleek, modern touches. These kitchens often feature high ceilings, large windows, and a mix of vintage and contemporary furniture. It’s a style that suits those who love a loft-like, edgy aesthetic.

Smart Tech Integration:

Technology integration is no longer a luxury but a standard in many 2024 kitchens. Smart kitchens are equipped with devices that can be controlled via smartphones or voice commands, offering convenience and efficiency. From smart ovens that can be preheated remotely to fridges that notify you when you’re running low on essentials, technology is reshaping how we interact with our kitchens.

Global Inspiration:

With a growing appreciation for global cultures, kitchens in 2024 are increasingly featuring design elements inspired by different parts of the world. Moroccan tiles, Scandinavian simplicity, and Japanese minimalism are just a few examples of how global influences are making their way into kitchen design.
