When it comes to compact kitchen spaces, there are plenty of creative ways to make the space function at its best while being as ergonomically pleasing and as efficient as possible. In fact, designing a compact kitchen often calls for greater ingenuity. Every millimeter counts, and each decision, even of the smallest detail, has a noticeable impact on how the room looks and works.
However, there are some rules we often hear bandied about that quite simply aren’t true. Outdated storage advice and rules in the day-to-day functioning of a kitchen, which can end up limiting your options rather than improving them, and we are way past a lot of these old ideas that “should” make our spaces better. In actuality, small kitchens benefit most from flexibility, tailored solutions, and a willingness to think outside the box.
