Kitchen interiors are often packed to the brim with wooden cabinets and steel appliances. In the midst of all the functional components, there is little room to add some dedicated aesthetics and good design styles. Kitchen windows provide one such precious opportunity. We here at Creatalog have curated a list of 10 things you need to know to make the best out of this and find the perfect window design for your beautiful kitchen space.

1. Large, Bay windows to light up your kitchen

Bay windows are more expensive than the regular window design styles but investing in one will definitely pay off in the long run. They allow enough surface area to light up the entire interior by design without any additional lighting during the day. They also make the room feel bigger and more breathable.

2. Standard, small windows above the counters

A small row or square windows over the counters brings out the traditional, rustic design style in your kitchen. Many kitchen interiors are designed this way from the get go, and it's easy to decorate these windows with some counters under and cabinets over them.

3. Low maintenance, sleek look with Sliding Windows

The biggest pro of sliding windows is their ease of use. They can be opened and closed conveniently to let a fair amount of light in. Try using sliding windows for a naturally lit and ventilated kitchen, spiced with a touch of modern interior aesthetic.

4. Cover the space around your kitchen window with greens

If the window has a surface to keep potted plants, it can be made into a beautiful mini-garden and add some life to your cooking space. Crawlers like the money plant can be grown along the window frame or the grill. Grow herbs right beside your cooking place for easy access to fresh ingredients.

5. Create a dining area by the kitchen window

Adding seating under the window, with a dining table next to it and a few dining chairs around, can create a scenic, comfortable dining area in your beautiful kitchen itself.

7. Beautiful, fancy kitchen window grills

Replace the simple, functional grills of the kitchen window with exortic designs from a large assortment. Go for simple diamond pattern for a rustic look, or decorative, curvy patterns for a classical feel, or regular, isometric patterns to bring out the modern vibe.

8. Decorate your kitchen window with appropriate curtains

Keep in mind the placement of the windows and keep any cloth away from the gas range or other heating appliances. Use light, soft material curtains to subtly decorate the borders of the windows and add an option for privacy when needed.

9. Use any excess space around kitchen window for storage

Window design styles that allow for enough space can be used to keep things. Window frames over counters can hold containers with ingredients, windows over sinks can hold soap and such. Just be careful with the dust.

10. Use frame material to set the theme Go for wooden frames for more contemporary setting, or opt for metal frames for a more modern design. Try to match the design style and the theme of the window with that of the kitchen interior.
