When it comes to today’s kitchen designs, there’s one design that will never grow old. The modern diner style kitchen has grown in popularity in recent years – and it looks like it’s set to stay. To help you start planning yours, we thought we’d share a few of our top tips…
When it comes to designing your diner-inspired kitchen, one thing that’s essential is an open plan design. A kitchen diner is all about space and socialising – so you’ll want to make sure there’s space for cooking, eating, entertaining, and family time.
When choosing an open plan design, you’ll still want to keep the work triangle in mind. This will ensure that everything flows smoothly within the design and that your kitchen space is easy and efficient to work in.
When you’re creating an open plan space, you don’t want chunky furnishings and cupboard handles ruining the sleek and sophisticated feel. Instead, maximise space with sleek handleless kitchen cupboards and smooth worktops. Corian is a great material for achieving this look and is available in a wide range of colour too, allowing you to really customise your kitchen diner.
In a kitchen diner, the right furnishings are really important; they help to create the different social spaces – like the casual breakfast area and a formal dining spot. In your kitchen diner, you’ll want to incorporate a breakfast bar for quick eats and a dining area that takes centre stage – perhaps set up by patio doors. If you have space, a kitchen island works wonders too and can connect to your breakfast bar for a slimline and efficient final design.
If you’re going for the American diner style look, why not add a pop of colour? While this isn’t an essential requirement for all kitchen diners, it does add that quirky 50s flair. At Kitchen Design Centre, we’ve worked with colour palettes that had included lime green, bright red, and bold purple. So, when it comes to choosing a pop of colour – anything goes!
If your kitchen is going to be used for a variety of purposes, you’ll want to make sure it’s well lit and bright. Natural light is great for opening up and brightening a space and is best achieved with large window or large glass patio doors, which open out onto your garden or terrace. You can also work in some atmospheric lighting too, to help you create the right mood for the different settings in your kitchen. We advise softer lighting, that can perhaps be dimmed, in the dining areas, and bright white LEDs in the work / prep areas.
Feeling all inspired? Why not take a look at one of our recent kitchen diner designs installed in the Moloney’s kitchen. Featuring a breakfast bar and island, corner seating dining area, and American fridge freezer, the final design was perfect for the family of five.
It’s nearly that time again, when your oven is non-stop cooking that all important Christmas dinner. Do you prefer stacked or lined up ovens? Don`t forget a warming drawer, they can save the day when you need to keep the Christmas dinner warm for that one person who is always late!

A skylight in the kitchen brings natural light to a room that might otherwise be without (or not enough) natural light. Natural light brings a softer and obviously more natural light flow to a room. Natural light is important as it’s a well-known reason why you feel happier in a home.
