JAKARTA - Kitchens are often the center of the house where families gather, guests peek, and you spend a lot of time preparing meals. No wonder many people dream of an interior magazine-style kitchen, complete with dramatic lighting and luxurious details. The good news is, the look is 'high' doesn't always require major renovations or fantastic budgets. With some smart little touch, the kitchen can look much more elegant, neat, and drained, as if you've just called a professional interior designer.

One of the fastest ways to give the impression of a new kitchen is to replace handles and cabinet knobs. This small device is like jewelry for a kitchen, the quality and design are attractive, the stronger the impression of custom and exclusive. Choose a model that looks solid, modern, or has a unique accent such as skin or metal bank. Make sure the distance of the screw hole is the same as the old one so you don't have to drill or patch a hole.

Lighting also plays a major role in presenting a luxurious feel. Instead of just relying on the main ceiling light, try adding an LED light strip under the upper and lower cabinets to have a soft glow effect at night. If you want more investment, choose one or two hanging lights (pendants) that state on the island or a small dining table. Designers recommend not meeting the ceiling with too many downlights, because it actually makes the atmosphere feel flat and cold.

Luxury kitchens almost always have one thing in common: a kitchen table that is clean from piles of goods. It may sound trivial, but getting rid of boosters, blenders, or rice cookers from the eye and keeping them in the cabinet can immediately change the atmosphere. A spacious surface gives a neat, spacious and expensive impression without charging any fees at all. At the same time, this cleaning moment can be an opportunity for decluttering equipment that is rarely used.

After the kitchen table is clean, then a touch of minimalist decoration can be played. Instead of meeting the surface with many accessories, select 12 * decorrative vignettes that are completely drained. For example, large wooden tissues leaning on walls, ceramic vassels with wooden spoons, glass jars filled with dry materials, or small pots of petite plants. Some designers also like to add tiny table lights in the corner of counters, accompanied by small artwork and cooking book stacks. The key, feels living' but still spacious, not like store windows.

Finally, don't underestimate the strength of clean ceramic nat lines (grouts). Nats that turn yellow or squeezed can make the entire kitchen look dull and cheap. Instead of changing ceramics or dredging old nats, you can use a pen grout, a special pen containing nat dyes, to reaffirm the lines or even change the nat color to make it look more modern. In a short time, the backsplash or kitchen floor looks like it has just been updated.

Without the need for major renovations, a combination of new cabinet hardware, layered lighting, a clean table, minimalist decorations, and fresh nats is enough to make the kitchen appear more expensive than the original. The result is not only pleasing to the eye, but also makes you feel more comfortable spending time in the space that is the heart' of this house.
