When it comes to designing your compact kitchen, the key is creativity. A creative mind can make the smallest kitchen look spacious. When your kitchenette is no larger than the size of a closet, even one person standing in there can feel like too many people.
Below are a few tricks that you can use to make your tiny kitchen look commodious:
1. USE WALLPAPERS AND PATTERNS
Geometric and striped wall and floor designs are good for drawing the eyes lengthwise or vertically, so a well-chosen pattern could just be the thing when you want to make your kitchen look longer or taller than it is. Geometric and striped wall and floor designs are good for drawing the eyes lengthwise or vertically, so a well-chosen pattern could be just the thing when you want to make your kitchen look longer or taller than it is. A checked tile design, for example, definitely makes your kitchen look more dynamic.
2.MAKE YOUR KITCHEN APPEALING
Who will even take notice of the size of your kitchen if it looks pleasing to the eye anyway? When you decorate your kitchen and make it beautiful, the narrowness and compact size of your kitchen can be overlooked. To make your kitchen presentable, you can use different ceiling lights or chandeliers that don’t let your kitchen look tight, but make it more exquisite. Besides, you can use various creative ideas using your own composite brain. You can even design a custom theme-based kitchen for yourself. There are many pleasant and varied kinds of wall hangings too, if you have the space for a few. Some of us like to collect crazy stuff like Russian dolls, porcelain mugs and other antique art pieces. You can even use these pieces for your kitchen to make it look noticeable.
3.FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT
Use scientific tricks to make your kitchen look considerable. Mirrored glass on cabinet doors instantly enlarges a small kitchen. We can't all have high ceilings, but we can fake them. Lacquer yours in a colour that complements the walls, and it'll look like the walls extend much higher than they actually do. Score!
4.EMBRACE THE LIMITED SPACE
When there's not much you can do with a cramped space without making it feel even smaller, add a cushy rug. It'll warm it up, and add colour and pattern without overwhelming your kitchen. After all, the smaller, the cosier! Take advantage of the fact that your space is small and turn it into a jewel box. Think brass hardware, marble countertops, and glam statement lighting. You may not have a ton of counter/floor space to play with decor, so make a statement on your walls. If you don't want it to feel too overpowering, accent with it instead of covering an entire wall. These things turn the focus from the size of your kitchen to its elegance. If the space is small, play around with funwallpaper. Something with a little sheen will make the room gleam.
5.PAINT THE INSIDE OF CABINETS
Painting the inside of your cabinets can totally change your kitchen’s interior aesthetics. It brings colour to your kitchen. It’s a known fact that colour makes everything look beautiful. Choose a colour according to your kitchen décor that fits well in your kitchen. Moreover, if you place beautiful crockery inside it, it would most likely draw the attention of one’s eyes. More like some icing on the cake!
