Kitchen Space Design Video

Bob joins homeowner Julie Graham and Merillat rep Faith Allen to discuss the new Merrilat kitchen that Julie has planned. Merillat has developed a new concept that they call "organomics" to help homeowners overcome some of the problems most commonly encountered in a designing a kitchen. Organomics is a blending a organization and ergonomics that allows the homeowner to take a look at the space beforehand and divide it up into activity-based zones. In the case of Julie's kitchen, the space is divided up into a storage zone with pantry, utility cabinet, and refrigerator, a sink zone for clean up, a cooking zone, a food prep zone, a planning zone encompassing the island, and then an eating zone in the nook. It's important to consider the interrelationship of all of these zones before ordering your cabinets.
