From the fire pit to the fitted kitchen, the kitchen was merely a space where food was prepared and had a secondary priority. Due to the social and cultural change of the last decades, the kitchen is increasingly becoming a living space and communicative nucleus of the home. Thus, not only is functionality decisive for the planning, but the design is also included in the overall architectural concept. The individual needs of the residents are considered in order to make the kitchen a place where people like to spend time. A place of encounter and enjoyment. The projects presented in this book are impressive testimonies to how this claim has been optimally implemented.
