An open kitchen can keep you entertained while you are cooking. During your time in the kitchen, you can also get involved in the activities that are going on in the adjacent room such as watching TV, having conversation with your family or guests or keeping a watch on your child while she is playing in the room. An open kitchen adds more space to your home. It also makes your home appear more spacious and bigger. If you are a fan of a fancy kitchenware and crockery and like to showcase them in a glass cabinet, an open kitchen gives you a chance to do that.
