I always enjoy spending time with family and friends, so the kitchen, the natural place that we all congregate must offer a place to share and make some amazing memories. Clients of Alair always share the same sentiments too. They envision spending time in the kitchen standing around an island, talking with the kids about what they learned at school, unwinding from a long day or work, or getting all the friends together for some late night cocktails. Our rentals that we build for our clients in Regina communities like Harbour Landing, Greens on Gardiner, Skyview, Hawkstone, and infills throughout the city always feature the open concept kitchen with an island – the place where family and friends can congregate and enjoy each others company.

The kitchen connects the dining room and living room as well, which is why I love plans that have the kitchen at the center of the house rather than back or front. Having to pass through the kitchen increases the chances the family and friends will cross paths, giving more opportunities to communicate and share experiences.
