Ways to Make Your Kitchen More Comfortable

  • Eliminate the clutter and utilize storage options
  • Get rid of noisy cabinets and replace with cabinets that have soft-close doors and hinges.
  • Choose a kitchen layout that is open and has room to move
  • Include friendly seating options such as a breakfast nook or comfortable stools with backs at the island or bar.
  • Include pullout shelves and explore cabinet options that don’t require as much bending and reaching.
  • Choose cabinet hardware such as knobs and pulls that are easy to grasp and hold on to.
  • Get the right countertop height so you can either sit or stand while working.
  • Include universal design so your kitchen is accessible to people of all ages.
  • Have adequate lighting
  • Choose comfortable kitchen flooring that is not hard on feet when standing for long periods of time
  • Choose kitchen colors that are warm and relaxing.
