Electricity brought many timesaving devices into the kitchen, as well as many inventions that pulled us away from the kitchen. Due to the innovations in the kitchen, fewer people were needed to prepare meals, so the kitchen lost a lot of its social importance and became a smaller, super–efficient working room. Built–in cabinetry, previously delegating only to Butler‘s pantries in larger homes, now became the best way to shrink the kitchen into an efficient workspace. With more leisure time, socializing was delegated to the living areas of the house, because the kitchen was too small.
If you‘ve been involved in designing or building a new kitchen in the past 20 years, you‘ve probably heard the terms ‘unfitted kitchens‘ or ‘kitchen workstations‘ or simply ‘kitchen furniture‘. These terms don‘t refer to a dinette set, but rather to a completely different way of organizing a kitchen by using a few specially designed pieces of furniture instead of installing continuous lines of cabinetry and countertops. For some people, a ‘furnished‘ kitchen is an intriguing idea, but others might say "Why bother fixing something that ain‘t broke?"
