Kitchen Advice
Handleless kitchens offer clean lines and a sleek, minimalism inspired aesthetic, which is a consistently popular choice for homeowners who want a kitchen makeover to infuse their homes with a sense of freshness and modernity.
But handleless kitchens really aren’t solely about aesthetics. In fact, they represent new ways of designing kitchen spaces that prioritise ergonomics and functionality.
What exactly is a handleless kitchen?
From singular sleek metal bars to colourful ceramic knobs, kitchen cabinet door and drawer handles come in myriad shapes, styles, colours and finishes. However, there are also a number of other mechanisms and clever design flourishes that can provide access to drawers and cabinets, including concealed recesses perfectly shaped for our fingertips and spring-loaded mechanisms that open with a gentle push.
These mechanisms enable handleless kitchens to achieve a seamless, clean and modern look, with no superfluous details to interrupt the overall flow of the space.
Are there any advantages to having a handleless kitchen?
The main benefit of choosing a handleless style for your kitchen makeover is just how easy it will be to achieve a seamless, minimalist look. Although handles are a relatively small detail within a wider kitchen design, you might be surprised at just how much of an impact they can have on the final look and feel of your space.
As well as helping homeowners to create a kitchen that reflects their personal style, there are also practical benefits to handleless cupboard doors and drawers because they can be easier to keep clean as there are fewer small spaces for grime and dust to accumulate. Plus, you’ll never accidentally get your clothes stuck on a handle in your kitchen again!
Pro Tip: Handleless kitchens can also be a great choice for homeowners with young children, as fewer protruding handles may minimise the number of accidental bumps and scrapes.
