Breakfast Nooks...A Good Start To A Great Day
If you havent experienced for yourself the simple joy and pleasure that breakfast nooks can bring, you are definitely missing out! Breakfast nooks may either be built into your existing kitchen or they may be another space entirely, and they are designed primarily to provide space for only a single person or two to enjoy some quiet time together. Sounds simple enough but breakfast nooks have a function that goes beyond this basic description. Numerous opportunities for intimate socialization are afforded by such places, and they can be used for quiet contemplation as well as a relaxed breakfast with someone you love. With such a nook in your kitchen, you have yet one more opportunity to enjoy quality time with your family or even by yourself.
If the idea of breakfast nooks sounds appealing to you but you do not have that much space to spare in your kitchen, dont worry about it! Breakfast nook design has undergone a transformation in recent years, mainly due to the issue of reduced space that so many homeowners currently have to deal with. It is now entirely acceptable to set up a breakfast nook that is simply an extension of your kitchen floor area. With a different set of floor tiles and perhaps a bit of modification to your color scheme, you can have a space that is distinctly different from the rest of your kitchen.
Of course you will want to design your breakfast nook with the overall theme of your home in mind. A god start would be to utilize similar furniture and fixings, and simply use a related but different color for the walls. This will allow you to retain your overall design vision, while still having a breakfast nook that is its own unique space.
As for space considerations, you will have to design your breakfast nook so that it fits neatly into your available space without sacrificing comfort and convenience. If you are really limited, a booth or bench type table that is built into the wall may be a better option. If you have a fairly good sized space, then you could explore your options in standalone tables and chairs.
Regardless of the design style that you adopt for your breakfast nook, foremost priority should be given to making it as comfortable as possible, with functionality coming in a very close second. Make your breakfast nook into a place where you can get away from the regular world, and it will be useful for years to come. More Reading
