Although not always stand out as the other rooms, the kitchen equipment must be arranged according to residential design. One arrangement just a little, the house will look less unsightly.
Previously, the kitchen is only regarded as dirty and smoky areas. Therefore, a tool used when cooking is still in the form of wood or bamboo, so the ancient houses where the kitchen is not considered special. In fact, sometimes difficult to distinguish where the kitchen and family room because it was fused.
Unlike today, the current kitchen could be said to have functions that are almost as much a bygone era. Related to the more modern era, the upper classes over many choose to eat out than eat at home. It makes the kitchen is rarely used, so the importance of the kitchen in question.
Once the kitchen is the essence of a place to live. This is where the center of the household, especially that related to cooking and eating. But for the concept of a minimalist home, the kitchen is made with a more minimalist size as well. So that homeowners can not cook too much food. As a result, eating outside the home of choice.
However, for a small income would prefer an alternative to shopping and cooking yourself. Sometimes even for small-sized houses require a kitchen they can be used for other activities such as washing, cutting, and cooking food. Size of land no bigger than a pantry, but multi-functional.
So, what's standard equipment must be used to supplement these minimum kitchen? Minimalist kitchens would have to support activities such as washing, cutting, and cooking food. The ingredients commonly held is the sink, single package with a place to cut it. Meanwhile, the rest of the other space to put the stove. "Stoves are normal, no need to use the oven if not every day use.
In addition to standard tools to support the kitchen, other things that need to be considered include three things, namely health, safety, and security. Means health, provision of trash cans in the kitchen. Therefore, we may not allow food ingredients that are just lying unused at the cutting table. This of course would invite odor.
However, we should not let the trash is too long in the bin, should be finished cooking, immediately dispose of garbage to landfills outside the home. It is no less important, make sure there is a window that can be opened for fresh air into the kitchen. Therefore, the result of bad air and air waste gas coming out would do us harm. To that end, the kitchen must deal directly with outside air, not to the kitchen was closed and dark.
Related to the aspect of safety, we should have a tool for early fire prevention. No need extinguishers that are difficult, simply provide buckets and sand. The kitchen is a source of fire. Because not all homeowners have a fire extinguisher, then seek a simple.
We can learn from India, where every kitchen must provide a bucket made of zinc containing sand. So, every time there is a fire, use sand dininya prevention.
Related to safety, the location of the kitchen must be strategic so that he can cook in the kitchen while controlling security outside the home. So even with the kitchen floor, be sure not slippery and easy to clean. Therefore, we must select suitable material for kitchen floor, such as granite materials or materials from natural stones.
Talk to the concept of minimalism, of course related to the effects of the expansion of space. One component that could give the impression it is a game wide color. We recommend that the colors used are bright colors like white, off white, or beige.
Lighting is also important. We recommend that you select the type of bright light. More than that, the kitchen light also should not rely on a position on the ceiling. That's because without realizing it you can cover the lamp shade so that the cooking be disturbed. Alternatively, put the lights on the top kitchen shelf that is directed straight into the cooking. But not to dazzle our eyes while working. At least the size of the lamp under the eyebrows, so do not glare.
