If you cook, your kitchen must be an important space in your home and its design and decor should be ultimate: it should be stylish and comfortable, welcoming and functional and much more – all of it at the same time. But what if you have a small kitchen No worries, even a tiny kitchen can be decorated without sacrificing the style and designed to feature maximal functionality and comfort. Let’s find out what ideas you should incorporate to achieve this.

What’s The Best Color For A Small Kitchen

Having a small kitchen, you should stick to neutrals as they make any space visually larger, airier and more light-filled. Moreover, if your cabinets and walls match in color, you will create an illusion of having even more space and the kitchen will look airy. Glossy and reflective materials will increase the effect, so you may want to use glass, light stone or composite, stainless steel.

Of course, you may go for bold touches like accent walls, colorful appliances, bold floor or stools but prefer neutrals, and if you want to add black, go for just some touches for a contrast. Feel free to incorporate various patterns, for example, to make a geometric backsplash, to make the kitchen look cooler. a beautiful turquoise kitchen with white countertops, a window instead of a backsplash and vintage faucets

How To Store In A Small Kitchen

Start from floor to ceiling cabinets and think vertically if you have a small kitchen. Such tall cabinets will add visual height to the space and will give real storage space to you, and all kinds of vertical storage like vertical herb gardens, hooks and shelves should be implemented into your design. You may even skip upper cabinets for an airy look but still add open shelves there for more storage space.

A small kitchen requires you making use of every inch of storage space you have. Maximize your storage space with clever pullout drawers, compact matching containers that will decrease the clutter and using each niche and corner to hang a shelf or place some storage holder or hook. Your backsplash can be more than just a pretty focal point! Hang up a pot rail or some hooks for your favorite kitchen utensils. Use the sides and bottoms of your cabinets and even the top of your fridge for storage.

But don’t clutter your space too much, cluttered spaces look smaller than they are. Keep surfaces from looking cluttered by tucking the toaster, kettle and coffee machine away in a breakfast cupboard. Boost your storage further with a mobile solution, such as a trolley or butcher’s block on casters. a small modern white kitchen with butcherblock countertops a kitchen island with two tops, retro pendant lamps

What Furniture To Choose for A Small Kitchen

Don’t think you have room for a table A fold-down table on a wall, in front of a window, or hanging off a bookshelf almost always works. This way, you can use it when you need and get it up and out of the way when you don’t. You may also get fold-down chairs and hang them up when they are not in need. You may also create a windowsill breakfast bar or eating zone if there’s enough space there.
