Small kitchen designs
Small kitchens aren't always the easiest thing to design. They often require careful consideration of space constraints and practicality. There are also other considerations such as budget, style preferences, and personal taste.
If you're looking to make the most of a small space, the IKEA small kitchen design ideas below will help you maximise every square inch of your kitchen, no matter its size.
Small kitchens are hard to design because you don't want to sacrifice space for storage. But there are ways to make small spaces work for you. Here are 6 clever kitchen ideas that can help you maximise your tiny kitchen without taking up too much floor space.
- Use every inch of wall space. If there isn’t enough room for shelves, use baskets or containers to store items like spices and utensils.
- Keep smaller kitchen appliances close together.
- Get creative with cabinets. Instead of having one large cabinet, try organising things into smaller drawers. Or, add dividers to keep everything separate.
- Maximise open shelving. A shelf over the stove is great for storing pots and pans; just place them on the bottom shelf.
- Add extra lighting. Make sure you have plenty of light bulbs around the kitchen. They’re cheap and easy to install.
- Don’t forget about the ceiling. Hang pot racks or hooks from the beams above the sink and oven.
