Studies have shown that eating together as a family has many benefits for everyone in the household but mostly the children; but with most families eating together at the table has become scares due to busy schedules. Research shows that there are many benefits to eating together as a family and so it is highly recommended to make the time to do so.
Among some of the benefits of eating together as a family, is better communication between parents and children, healthier eating habits, better academic performances, and less destructive behaviors as outlined by Becky Hand, Licensed and Registered Dietrican in this SparklePeople.com article.
Timi Gustafson also explains in her article on huffingtonpost.com that "According to a number of reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse atColumbia University(CASA), children who eat at least five times a week with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits, weight problems or alcohol and substance dependencies, and tend to perform better academically than their peers who frequently eat alone or away from home."
This is why it is so important to make your Kitchen into an open space you will want to gather around the table. At K International Woodworking we have remodeled and designed multiple Kitchen spaces in order to make it much more welcoming for everyone in the household. When designing a Kitchen we always keep functionality in mind; taking advantage of all the space the Kitchen has to offer.
Life is too short, its important that we enjoy every moment we have with the people we love. The easiest way to do so in by enjoying a meal together. Our shop is always open to help you get inspired and excited about new projects.

The custom Kitchen cabinet and Island depicted on the left, used to have a wall where the countertop is now. Just by removing the wall and adding this one unit to the Kitchen, it has become a much more pleasant space.
"We love the countertop and cabinet from K International Woodworking. It makes my Kitchen seem bigger just by getting rid of that wall... My children are always hanging around the countertop now which is also a huge plus."

A Kitchen doesn't need to be completely renovated in order to be more inviting. Some Kitchens only need small changes or additions such as the Kitchen above. Or try just adding a custom bench or breakfast nook into your space such as the one shown below or unique table.

This custom Kitchen bench was designed to fit right into this corner that once used to have 4 chairs with a dining room table. The bench is designed to open, so it can be used as storage. This will be an amazing place to gather as a family and make memories once the table and upholstery is added. There are so many different ideas on what you can do with your Kitchen (see more ideas on our website or web gallery). It all depends on you and your family, what fits best into your home and lifestyle. At K International Woodworking we design rooms to fit your needs. We provide consultation and work closely with the designer, architect, and home owner in order to create the perfect space for your family.
