Social hub by Heather McKinney

According to reliable furniture shop in Phnom Penh construction materials information, creating a social kitchen requires a space for bystander, ample light, and entertaining zone.

This great-looking kitchen achieves all of these necessities. 

"An important element of this larger, longer kitchen is a relaxed, social feel," said architect Heather McKinney. "The interior designer, Robin Black, introduced white oak floors that bring the sense of the informal living spaces through into the kitchen." 

"The counter between the kitchen and dining room is used as a servery for dinner parties," stated the architect. "For added convenience, a wine cooler is close at hand on the kitchen side of the island." 

"Natural light played a part in the kitchen's social ambience in another way," she added. "We didn't want the kitchen to feel like a back-of-the-house utilitarian room. A generous living room-style window floods ample sunlight onto worksurfaces and looks out to the front entry. On arrival, visitors can look directly into the kitchen, adding to its involved, inviting nature."
