Room to recycle

Soon, most councils will legally require households to sort their rubbish (some already issue fines for non-compliance), and if there’s one thing guaranteed to put off a buyer it’s a precarious pile of paper and glass. When designing a kitchen, factor in space for recycling. Manufacturers such as Bulthaup now design kitchens to include concealed bins with separate compartments for different types of waste - effortless and tidy recycling.
