This is the space-enhancing trick your small kitchen is missing, according to a kitchen designer

Green kitchen with marble counters and a mirrored splashback.

Stuck with a kitchen that's on the smaller side? We relate. Many of us aren't blessed with sprawling spaces to cook in, so it's important to work with what we've got, and sometimes a small kitchen is just that. But luckily, Magnet's head designer has weighed in with a way to maximise the space - a mirrored splashback.

While physical room for small appliances such as air fryers and coffee machines might be hard to come by, this will quickly create the illusion of a larger kitchen, without any structural work. We're all for tricks of the eye that add light to our homes, and what's even better is that this is stylish and functional too.
