Open-plan kitchens: the trendy kitchen renovation in Barcelona

Kitchen renovations in Barcelona are undergoing a true revolution, and one of the most notable trends in recent years is the integration of the kitchen and living room. More and more homes in Barcelona are opting for open, functional, and light-filled spaces. Are you thinking about renovating your kitchen? In this article, we'll tell you why open-plan kitchens are in fashion, what advantages they offer, and how Reforma y Ahorra can help you achieve the kitchen you've always dreamed of.

Why choose open-plan kitchens?

Kitchen renovations in Barcelona have evolved toward a more modern and social concept of space. The wall that traditionally separated the kitchen from the living room has become less important. Today, more and more families are looking for a more fluid, comfortable layout that adapts to new lifestyles.

Open kitchens:

• They allow natural light to enter both rooms.

• They visually expand the space, something essential in many Barcelona apartments.

• They encourage socializing and interaction, and allow you to keep an eye on young children while they play. They're also ideal for families with a busy social life.

• They offer greater functionality and comfort in everyday life.
  
  

Growing trend in kitchen renovations in Barcelona

In neighborhoods like Eixample, Gràcia, and Poblenou, many homes are opting to renovate their kitchens to open them up to the living room. At Reforma y Ahorra, a leading company in comprehensive renovations in Barcelona, we see this every day: our clients are looking for modern, open, and efficient kitchens that add value and comfort to their homes.

Furthermore, since these are often older or compartmentalized homes, this renovation represents a significant improvement not only in aesthetics but also in functionality and energy efficiency.

Real Cases: Kitchen Renovation in the Sant Antoni Neighborhood

One of our most recent projects was in an apartment in Sant Antoni, where the family wanted to modernize a small, dark kitchen. We decided to remove the partition that separated it from the living room, install a central island with a cooking area and breakfast bar, and refurbish all the furniture with natural wood veneer finishes and a white quartz countertop.

The result: an open, bright, and much more practical space, without losing the original charm of the Barcelona apartment.

What to consider when opening the kitchen to the living room?

Opening the kitchen to the living room doesn't mean sacrificing order or design. There are practical and aesthetic solutions that allow the two spaces to be harmoniously integrated:

• Powerful extractor hoods: to prevent odors in the living room. Technology in this field has advanced to the point where some hoods don't stop until they've absorbed all the odor particles.

• Smart storage furniture: keeping your kitchen organized and visually clean.

• Durable and easy-to-clean materials.

• Visual delimitations: such as islands, peninsulas or pavement changes to differentiate areas.
  
  

At Reforma y Ahorra, we have interior designers and technicians who will advise you from the very beginning, analyzing the space and proposing solutions tailored to your lifestyle and budget.
