Turning the kitchen and dining room into one room

The kitchen and dining room are usually attached as it makes sense to have the room where you prepare your food next to the room where you sit down and eat. However, a lot of homeowners feel they would rather their kitchen and dining room be part of the same open space.

Kitchen and dining room renovations account for quite a large proportion of the home renovations that are conducted up and down the UK simply because they are often the most practical and appealing. The idea is to open out the transition between the kitchen and the dining room so that you have more space at your disposal.

What once were two separate rooms becomes one large room with essentially two parts and this is something that people really enjoy because it feels bright and sociable and there is more opportunity to extend your storage options. This approach also allows cool kitchen design to creep further into the house which is a real advantage if you love a more modern style. In some listed properties and conservation areas, it is worth knowing what you can and cannot do before you start on your kitchen/diner project
