I spend most days looking at beautiful kitchen designs, so I feel like I know a thing or two about what makes a good kitchen. But, every day is a school day in the world of kitchen design, especially around the more practical logistics of the space. While less immediately captivating than a shiny marble worktop, these details are some of the most fundamental building blocks for the gorgeous modern kitchens I spend my days admiring.
One such question: how much space should there be between my counters and kitchen cabinets? It's always seemed to me one of those 'I know it when I see it' conundrums, but it's not always quite so simple. There is a methodical and precise approach to ensuring your kitchen is as practical as possible, and that includes getting the distance between these two surfaces just right. So, I asked the experts to help me simplify the equation.
