Green Magnolia Kitchen

Timeline
 

April 2022
 

DDA student competition
 

I participated in DDA student competition in the Universal kitchen design category with the Green Magnolia Kitchen project that I worked on when I was in school and thankfully, my entry placed bronze.
 

These clients have four lovely children, and one child is in a wheelchair due to multiple sclerosis They asked me to change the kitchen that is accessible to everyone including a wheelchair user. The uneven/dated tiled floors and narrow kitchen spaces reduced wheelchair accessibility. In addition, the storage space was insufficient compared to the number of family members, and the countertop was too high to use in a wheelchair. The biggest goal was to make a bright, cozy kitchen available to all family members.

The challenge

Summary
 

First of all, Uneven old tile was replaced with Vinyl floor tile which provides a sturdy, level surface ideal for wheelchairs. The g-shape kitchen island makes Children or guests can sit on the other side of the peninsula without taking up valuable cooking space. Also, it provides a lot more storage areas and counter working spaces.
The overall cabinet is soft green, giving it a soft and cozy feel. Pull-out shelves and drawers provide easy accessibility for a wheelchair user as well. The quartz countertop of creamy tone gives a natural and clean feeling, and the wavy pattern that extends to the wall, in particular, adds elegance and depth to the simple kitchen.
In the bay window space, children can sit along with the window so that clients can see the children while they are in the kitchen and children can have their own time. For wheelchair access, the leg area below the desk is provided. Additionally, a baking zone is provided for baking-loving clients. For practical space utilization, a pull-out countertop was installed so that the counter space could be increased whenever necessary.  The kitchen successfully turned out to be a cozy calm kitchen welcoming to everyone
