DIRECTOR LUCAS FONG, BOX DESIGN STUDIO

1. Space planning is crucial. Always be mindful of the triangle workflow; food preparation area,
ingredients and equipment stored within arm’s reach and the actual cooking and appliance
placement.
2. Sufficient storage compartments for an organised kitchen.
3. Choice of materials and finishing of a kitchen for easy maintenance.
Here are some of Lucas’ killer tips to planning your kitchen layout and design.
1. Make a list of electronic and appliance equipment that you need before working on the
kitchen planning. This should include the oven, microwave, sink, stove, hood, fridge, wine chiller,
dishwasher or more depending on your cooking preferences.
2. Understand your top three cooking lifestyle to determine what visual concept to go for. For
example, if you are heavy on Asian cooking, then an appliance for a big wok must be top priority.
Otherwise, if you only use it for sandwich or light food preparation, then a sleek and compact
kitchen would be more ideal.
Personally, Lucas prefers a sleek and stylish kitchen design that is pleasing to the eye, as well as
provide ample storage compartments with state-of-the-art movement systems that maximises
storage. His acute sense of meeting homeowner’s needs is what sets him apart when it comes to
designing a masterpiece of a kitchen.
