When does an open-plan kitchen make sense?

  • Closed kitchen with no daylight
  • You cook cut off from everyone
  • A hallway eating up space
  • No room for a family dining table

What opening up the kitchen includes

  • Wall assessment

    We check whether it is load-bearing and, if so, an engineer specifies the beam or support.

  • Removal and making good

    We take the wall down and repair ceiling and walls with no trace of the old partition.

  • Island or peninsula

    A worktop or breakfast bar that defines each zone without closing the space.

  • Continuous flooring

    The same floor in the kitchen and living room, level and without steps.

  • Effective extraction

    A hood ducted outside so cooking smells stay out of the living area.

  • Zoned lighting

    Separate circuits for kitchen, bar and living room, with spotlights and pendants.

Open-plan kitchens in Olot: what we check

Flats from the 60s to the 80s are common in areas such as Vila Vella and Eixample Malagrida, usually with a separate kitchen and a corridor between it and the living room. Removing that stretch adds space to the living area and lets the kitchen share the light from the main facade.

In areas such as Sant Miquel, Bonavista and Pla de Dalt we size the cooker hood to the open-plan space and centre it over the hob, with the duct hidden in the suspended ceiling all the way to the outside.

On the visit we examine the wall and the services running through it, then send a detailed written quote; a site manager coordinates demolition, services and fitting. We also work in nearby areas: Sant Joan les Fonts, Santa Pau and La Vall d'en Bas.

Frequently asked questions

01

Open-plan kitchen renovation in Olot: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Olot, in areas such as Vila Vella, Eixample Malagrida, Sant Miquel, Bonavista, Pla de Dalt, Sant Roc, Sant Cristòfol les Fonts and Batet de la Serra, and also nearby: Sant Joan les Fonts, Santa Pau and La Vall d'en Bas. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

How do I know if the kitchen wall is load-bearing?

We check during the visit: joist direction, wall thickness and plans, if there are any. If there is any doubt, an engineer assesses it before anything is touched.

03

Won't cooking smells reach the living room?

Not with a properly sized hood ducted outside. We choose it for the volume of the open space and centre it over the hob.

04

Can the existing living-room floor be kept?

If it is in good condition and at the same level, yes: we fill the strip left by the wall with matching or similar tiles. If none are available, we suggest a new continuous floor.
