Compact Kitchen Furniture – the new trend?
Compact kitchens are only becoming more and more popular nowadays, as many new projects and other existing homes don’t allow as much space for kitchen furniture as one might initially think. But there is no need to worry! Because even a compact kitchen can sometimes be all you need!
Which layout should I choose?
For compact kitchens, there are in most cases only two recommended layouts. An L-type layout and a kitchen that takes up one wall. An L-shaped layout will be a bit more practical and more likely to offer both workspace and storage, but a single-wall kitchen layout can be even more compact and in some ways more aesthetically pleasing. It will also fit better if the kitchen is in a very open studio apartment, for example.
General recommendations and storage options.
Given the limited square footage, vertical options should be used as much as possible. Open shelving and a variety of basket systems will be your best friend. Also, to organise your already limited storage space, I would definitely recommend using drawer organisers so that everything is always in the right place.
How to design compact kitchen furniture with your own style expression?
A unified style will help you build your compact kitchen furniture project. As one might intuitively expect, minimal styles in a compact space are no longer suggestions, but a necessity. Tasteful Scandinavian style in a minimal mood will never get old and will look great in any room. This is just one example. In general, to keep the design flowing, stick to the same colour palette, choose built-in techniques and match the decor to create a cohesive look.
When it comes to compact furniture, the whole art is to be able to combine as much functionality as possible in as little space as possible. To achieve the desired result, designers tend to use a variety of clever tricks to maintain not only function but also style.
