5 Design Tips to Make a Small Kitchen Feel Bigger

A bigger kitchen comes with its fair share of advantages. It provides you with a great deal of functionality because you can multitask in the kitchen, prepping, cooking, and entertaining easily. However, a large kitchen isn't always the best choice for your home. You may have a limited footprint or simply prefer the efficiency of a smaller kitchen. To make the most of a smaller space, these tips will help your kitchen live large.

Decluttering Made Easy

A cluttered kitchen makes it seem smaller than it actually is. So clever storage and built-ins will keep your kitchen feeling spacious. Deep drawers and maybe a pantry will help stow small appliances and things you don't use every day. A kitchen remodel could incorporate a microwave drawer coupled with sufficient storage to keep your countertops and shelves are clear of any clutter.

White Kitchen

Using white surfaces in your kitchen redesign project will make it appear more spacious because of the reflection of light. As an added bonus, white kitchens are timeless, adding value to your home.

Floor selection

A patterned floor in your kitchen redesign project can make the kitchen appear larger. A designer can help you use the pattern to visually increase the length and width of your kitchen.

Kitchen Furniture

Slimming down your furniture is an important part of the kitchen redesign. Bulky furniture in a small kitchen makes it appear cramped. Slim furniture like bar stools and a peninsula gives your kitchen a contemporary and modern look. This makes your kitchen appear spacious.

Kitchen redesigning is a complex and time-consuming project that should best be left in the hands of a proven design-remodel contractor.
