Finding the right balance of beauty and functionality for small kitchens can be tricky. Many small kitchen remodeling ideas sacrifice an attractive and usable layout for stacking as many appliances and storage on top of one another as possible. However, having a kitchen that looks nice and that you don’t mind spending time in is also important. Try some of these small kitchen remodeling ideas to get the most out of your cooking space.
Add Windows and Mirrors
Letting in natural light is one way to make your kitchen look bigger. Add windows or skylights that let in direct sunlight, and use mirrors to create the illusion of space and a more even distribution of light.
Choose Furniture with Clean Lines
Simple furniture makes your kitchen look less cluttered. When possible, choose chairs without lines and tables with edges that are flush with the outside of the legs to free up space.
Try Creative Cabinets
Add long, thin drawers for storing trays and tall, narrow spice rack cabinets to contain some of your important cooking supplies without taking up too much wall space.
Use a Uniform Color Scheme
Choose a light, solid color for walls and ceilings to keep your kitchen from looking cramped. To add to the illusion of having more room, match your furniture color to the walls.
