Kitchen Design features
Bauformat Kitchens are known for their advanced customization options and cutting-edge technology, making them a top choice for modern homeowners.
One of their standout features is the lift-and-hinge systems, offering effortless opening and closing mechanisms for overhead cabinets. These systems provide easy access to storage areas without the need for excessive reaching or bending. Box systems look like classic kitchen drawers, but are much more. Instead of buying additional storage organizers to maximize typical drawer space, Bauformat offers built-in, customizable storage solutions. Whether you want adjustable shelves or dividers inside, the box systems offer flexibility in arrangement. A less-traditional kitchen design can be seen with their cabinetry. Bauformat utilizes organization systems and space towers to make optimal use of corners and vertical space. Custom pull-out trays and shelves allow you to access items inside immediately, reducing clutter and keeping the kitchen highly organized.

Although we mention modern kitchens a lot, this is not an accurate depiction of the range of styles our customers know us for. Minimalistic kitchens, like Paris, Sydney, and Strassburg, are characterized by clean lines, open spaces, and a focus on simplicity. The minimalistic approach creates a calm and airy atmosphere that embodies effortless living. In contrast, a more industrial kitchen can be seen with Bilbao and Glasgow. These units celebrate bold elements like exposed materials, dark hues, and metallic accents. For those who lean towards more traditional kitchens, take a look at Girona and Torino, where classic, charming elements meet contemporary conveniences. The framed cabinetry and softer color palettes evoke a sense of timelessness and comfort. If you’re interested in custom kitchens Sacramento now has European Kitchens and Beyond, a local expert.
Kitchen handles
KITCHENS WITH HANDLES + KNOBS
Our kitchen handle selection spans from country-style handles to sleek, angular designs, catering to both traditional and modern aesthetics. The collection is enriched by a variety of materials, such as aluminum, stainless steel, wood, and leather, allowing for a truly customized finish. The flexibility to position the handles anywhere ensures your Bauformat kitchen will carry a distinct personal flair. Grip ledges are available in finishes such as stainless steel or brass, along with numerous high-gloss and matte lacquer color options.
HANDLELESS KITCHENS
If you choose a no handle look, you are opting in for a kitchen design that emphasizes clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic. By eliminating protruding handles, these modern kitchens create a smooth and continuous surface that makes the room appear more spacious and cohesive. Practical benefits include easier cleaning as there is no grime on handles over time.
These handleless kitchens use a push-to-open mechanism or a recessed channel system. The push-to-open system allows cabinet doors and drawers to be opened with a simple push, using a built-in spring mechanism that releases the latch. The recessed channel system involves a discreet groove along the edge of the cabinetry, providing a convenient grip for opening doors and drawers without the need for external handles.
Kitchen materials
With so many different kitchen styles and cabinet handle options, it makes sense that Bauformat has an equally diverse range of front finishes and materials.
Form vs function is a personal preference and so is choosing a low or high maintenance kitchen front. Kitchens with Genuine Lacquer or Glass Laminate surfaces give off a luxurious finish, but require fairly regular cleaning to maintain their glossy appearance. In contrast, Melamine, Laminate and Thick Veneered fronts are more forgiving and flexible. Melamine is known for its strong resistance to elements and stains. Laminate is relatively easy to maintain. Thick-Veneer combines the beauty of wood with the durability of a robust veneer.
Each Bauformat finish offers a different balance of aesthetics and maintenance, letting homeowners choose what best fits their kitchen design preferences and lifestyle needs.
Kitchen worktops + Countertops
Bauformat worktops are designed with a focus on durability, versatility, and style.
The traditional worktop is crafted to withstand the colorful demands of modern kitchens. Homeowners can choose from 3 standard thicknesses: 16mm, 25mm, and 39mm. These options cater to individual kitchen preferences, whether you’re looking for a thin, minimalist look or a more robust, substantial design that makes a statement. Bauformat caters to smaller spaces, as well, by offering a compact worktop: an ultra-thin alternative that is 12mm thick. Although incredibly slim, this surface is highly durable and ideal for modern kitchens with a space-saving priority.
As for the bar or breakfast counter, Bauformat offers bar countertops with a substantial thickness of 90mm, delivering a bold and striking visual impact. Whether used as an island in open-concept spaces or as countertops for high-traffic areas, the 90mm options add a degree of refinement to any kitchen. Together, the variety of thicknesses across working surfaces ensures that Bauformat kitchens can be tailored to meet both design preferences and practical demands.

WORKTOP EDGING

The modern design, featuring a sharply defined edge radius, is the result of decades of innovation in perfecting the classic rounded worktop. With a seamless, hard-wearing laminate finish that extends from the surface and front edge radius to the underside, these worktops offer both durability and style. A thin, front edge provides exceptional impact resistance while maintaining a clean, smooth appearance. At the core of this design is a Eurospan raw chipboard, chosen for its strength and stability, ensuring a refined and long-lasting work surface.
PP edge (1.5 mm thick) in all worktop decors as well as stainless-steel and brass-colored
Your kitchen’s design is as unique as the demands you place on it. To accommodate any layout, Bauformat worktops feature waterproof-bonded decorative edges with a PP edge (Polypropylene). Polypropylene is known for its ecological, heat, and chemical resistant properties. Edge finishes come in stainless steel or brass, complementing other design elements your modern kitchen has.
Outside/inside corners
rounded or square
Design is all about the fine details. The edges of your worktop play a key role in the overall look of your modern kitchen. If you prefer clean lines and sharp angles, straight edges are an excellent choice for creating that aesthetic. If you lean toward a softer design, opt for rounded corners that provide smooth transitions between surfaces and create a more relaxed, welcoming feel. Your edge style cleverly impacts the details and character of your kitchen.
Kitchen lighting
“ALEXA, TURN THE LIGHT ON.”
Lighting can make or break even the BEST kitchens on the market. Placement of lights is one thing, but it’s the contemporary LED lighting system that sets Bauformat kitchens apart from all others. This technology adjusts the intensity and color of the light. With a simple adjustment, you can switch from bright, task-oriented lighting to a more inviting, relaxed atmosphere. Energy efficiency is equally a priority with kitchens offering long-lasting illumination while using minimal energy. This combination of smart design, flexibility, and modern technology makes Bauformat’s lighting systems a key feature in creating dynamic and functional cooking spaces.
Contemporary LED systems tailor lighting to any mood, activity, or situation. For a pleasant and soothing environment, warm white light (2,700-3,300 kelvins) creates a welcoming ambiance. For meal prep and everyday activities, neutral white light (3,300-5,300 kelvins) strikes the perfect cord. For high-focus activities, opt for cool white light (+ 5,300 kelvins).
