Hello World! Welcome Friends! Having a small kitchen is no reason for disappointment. It is all about how you can make the best use of the given space. You need the right ideas from tiling to decorating to get it to work. If you can organize it well, even a small kitchen can be more productive than a large and spacious one. And it is a place to work, not to relax and chill. So lesser the distance between the items in the kitchen, the quicker and easier it will be to work. But only if you can organize it well.
How to do that? The following tips can help!
Create a One-Wall Kitchen
The idea is old but not outdated at all. In fact, it is one of the best ways to design a small, or an open kitchen. Shift everything, from the utensils to the appliances, to one wall and keep the rest of the space for other purposes, like cutting veggies or dining. It will seem way less messy that way. If you are scared to clutter the entire wall, do not worry. You can create cabinets on the wall to accommodate rarely-used stuff and keep it away from the public eye.
Move Things to the Ceiling
One space that is ignored the most in a kitchen is the ceiling. One of the popular modern kitchen design ideas is to shift the things that you do not use every day to the topmost shelves, near the ceiling. You can also create cabinets that touch the ceiling and store unused stuff there. Also, you can shift the larger items to shelves above the refrigerator, so that they do not eat up your space in the kitchen.
Turn the Sink Into a Cutting Board
Don’t have enough space on the countertop? No worries! Modern kitchen designs are all about making the best use of the available space and reducing clutter. One of these ideas is to turn your sink into a cutting board when not in use. You can either buy an integrated sink cutting board, or you can make one according to your specific needs and measurements. It will not only extend your workspace in the kitchen but also cover the sink and prevent it from getting dirty.
Go For More Light
If your small kitchen is getting on your nerves, you can install more lights to light it up. You can even make some efforts to increase the light entering through the windows, like putting up glass items on the window shelves or using transparent shelves. If nothing works, you can install a mirror on the kitchen wall to increase the amount of light reflection in the space.
Install Hideaway Furniture
This is yet another of the trendiest modern kitchen design ideas that one can make use of. Install furniture that you can tuck away after use, like the backless stool that is generally seen in the bars, drop-down or roll-out tables, and cutting boards. These kinds of practical furniture can help you use your limited space more conveniently without decreasing its utility.
Donate Unwanted Stuff
Although this is not a décor tip, you can try it to reduce the clutter in your kitchen. Think about what you really need to keep and donate everything else or move them to the storage room. You will feel a lot better when the space increases.
