As with all elements of small-kitchen design, choosing cabinetry for a tight space presents numerous challenges; however, some of the most interesting interiors often arise through finding creative solutions to various constraints. Perhaps one of the biggest design dilemmas here is how best to squeeze in enough storage, as the smaller the kitchen, the more cluttered it will feel if appliances and utensils aren’t tucked away out of sight.
If budget allows, it’s worth enlisting the help of an experienced kitchen designer, interior designer or architect to help you maximize every inch of storage, and recommend cabinetry that ticks your boxes in terms of aesthetics and functionality. Before getting started, it’s definitely advisable to do an inventory of everything in your kitchen, and discard or give away anything that you don’t use or isn’t in good working order. That way, you’re only dedicating that much-needed cabinet space to items that really need to be there.
