OPENING UP YOUR HOME The kitchen today has become the heart of the home; and as such offers households the chance to gather in a more relaxed way, than other rooms in the house. Gone are the formalities of the parlour and increasingly the formal dinner party. Hosts more often have friends and family gathered where the chef is part of the get together- the act of cooking and serving is near and the children and guests engaged with. No longer does the chef have to rush into the dining room or carry the tea and cakes into the drawing room. Likewise the summer lunch outside is more easily served and barbecued when the kitchen opens to the terrace and lets the sun into the middle of the house. Opening up your home will open up your life.
