We all know that the kitchen plays an important role in the house, just like the living room. These places need to look flawless. There are many ways to go about it, and open area kitchens are the new rage. But what if you don’t have enough space for the kitchen? Could you still make it look flawless?

 

While sink looks like it is just a part of the kitchen, the size and setup matters a lot. If you have it in the open area, you will feel more spacious and airy. Similarly, if you have a single bowl sink over anything bigger, that is even better.

People tend to go overboard with bigger sinks when there’s no need for them. So, try to stick to single bowl sink

The next question that you should have is the placement of the freestanding island, or the dining table. First of all, you need to consider if you can spare some space for a freestanding island. If you can’t, then substitute it with the table. You will need a table.

If you want to declutter the kitchen entirely, there’s no need to have a table or the island. That will save you a lot of space, but also make the place look empty. So, it would be better to go for the smaller additions.

Now, here’s a tip that would really help you out. If you have small space for the kitchen, don’t go for closets, drawers, and cabinets that cover the entire wall. The entire wall coverage dwarfs the kitchen’s look. But, if you have too many items, you should consider it.

Similarly, removing handles and using a seamless design would add to the space. If you have a smaller kitchen, also try to go for open cupboards, and utensil holders. They will give the airy and spacious feeling to the kitchen.

Let’s never forget that bright colours will always look spacious, and this goes for the kitchen too. White floor, white cabinets, and bright wooden texture adds to the spacious feeling of the otherwise small kitchen in the image.

You could try the same approach. Try not to use the dark colours for the kitchen, if you have a small area for it.
