Large kitchen layout ideas for many hands and big appetites

Bright, open, and built for real life: this big kitchen pairs traditional off-white BODBYN fronts with storage that swallows clutter, so the worktops stay clear and ready for the next cooking session. Two sinks keep the workflow smooth – you can prep food at one, while someone’s doing the washing up at the other – and a welcoming peninsula adds extra workspace and front-row seating for snacks, homework, or second opinions on the sauce.

The no-search kitchen cabinet

Imagine this: you open your pantry and you find exactly what you need! Good news: getting your kitchen cabinets in order is easier (and cheaper) than you think. Sturdy pull-out boxes and crates group similar items and can easily be taken out for a full overview of their content. Add a PÅLYCKE clip-on basket – no drilling required – to use the full shelf height for storage. Stash spices, oils, and other go-tos in the CHOKLADHAJ portable organizer and carry it right to the cooktop – clear, tidy, and budget-friendly.

 

Our soft-closing MAXIMERA drawers pull out all the way for a full overview, and transparent containers make labelling unnecessary – you can see what’s inside. KORALLVIPPA is a series of dry food jars with airtight lids that preserve flavours and keep food fresher for longer, helping to reduce food waste. They’re lightweight, stackable, and easy to open thanks to the ventilation button that releases air when you press it. What’s not to like?

Own your fridge, rule your meals

We’ve all been there: mystery tubs lurking in the back, three open tubs of something, and herbs that wilt before the week’s out. Good news, small tweaks can fix most of it. Transparent containers make the fridge easy to read – you see what you’ve got, what needs using, and what’s running low, so shopping and meal planning get faster, and you don’t even have to label them.

 

When you restock, move older items to the front and refresh the order in your fridge regularly. Build your shopping list after a quick shelf scan and buy what fills the gaps, not adds duplicates. Add an “eat-me-first” box and you’ll cut food waste without even trying. And why not declare one leftovers night – empty the containers and call it a buffet! Result: quicker meal prep, less food waste, and some saved money, too.

A kitchen made for teamwork

The more, the merrier – if your kitchen’s designed for sharing! With a roomy peninsula (sink included) and a few clear work zones, there’s space for every helper. One chops, one whisks, one tackles the dishes without any elbow bumps. That way, chaos turns into teamwork with a side of chats and laughs.

 

Wall storage makes it easy to grab what you need without stumbling over someone’s feet. This kitchen has a magnetic rack for knives and movable hooks for towels – clever space-saving solutions that take the chore out of cooking. Want to save some time, too? Cook your lunch in glass containers, let them cool, snap on the tight plastic lids – and you’re good to go.

The peninsula of your dreams

This peninsula is a storage powerhouse, with a deep drawer for cake tins and gadgets, a pull-out surface for small appliances, and built-in spots for recycling bins with lids. It also offers additional worktop space for food prep and cooking, and a handy second sink for the home chef’s many assistants. And last, but not least, it has that social magic that turns it into the natural centre of your home: pull up a stool or two, and it becomes a snack bar, a place to do homework, or a coffee-chat corner. Practical, welcoming, and the humble star of your kitchen.

Storage that puts on a show

Turn cabinets from our flexible SEKTION kitchen system into a glass-door showpiece with matching BODBYN fronts in off-white, just the way you want it. This cabinet with glass shelves and integrated lighting is more than just storage – it’s a little stage for your favourite pieces of dinnerware that lets them shine without collecting dust. The soft glow adds depth and warmth, turning everyday pieces into décor and helping you spot what you need faster.

 

Dimmable, warm LED lights give your kitchen a soft ambience and they’re kinder on sleepy eyes when you sneak into the kitchen for a late snack or an early cup of hot brew. Want some smaller things neatly tucked away? Add drawers at the bottom for napkins, placemats, and coasters. Your cabinet, your call.

A traditional table with room for more

With its classic silhouette, the ROSENTORP extendable table looks just as good dressed up as it does on a worknight. When company calls, the self-storing leaf slides out smoothly to take you from four to six seats. The compact size keeps everyday meals comfortable while the extended setup has room for both birthday brunches and board-game nights.

 

Pick chairs that match the table perfectly – from a junior chair for a younger member of the family to an upholstered model for anyone who prefers something more comfy – so that your nearest and dearest of all ages can find their favourite seat around the table.
