Many people underestimate the importance of the kitchen in the home and forget about it when it comes to redecorating.That is the opinion of designer Sarah Crosset, who has insisted that families should consider how much time they spend in the kitchen when it comes to making changes to their home.She claimed that just minor adjustments can result in huge improvements to kitchen design, with easy steps such as thorough cleaning even having an impact.Most families spend more time in the kitchen than anywhere else in the house. This room is not just where food is prepared and eaten, but also where families gather in times of joy and crisis, she stated.If this is the case, why is the kitchen usually the last room redecorated? People just dont think about decorating their kitchen, but a small makeover can spare your kitchen from the expense of a huge remodelling project.Ms Crosset supports placing rugs at key points in the kitchen as a way to add both colour and comfort.
