Imagination + Ingenuity = A Bigger Kitchen!
Having a small kitchen can seem like a problem when you consider all of the modern conveniences you have to fit into this space, but a little remodeling can lessen this hindrance. With the right general contractor and an open mind concerning storage, your small kitchen will be feeling bigger in no time.
Two of the easiest fixes for a small kitchen are light and colors. By painting your kitchen walls a lighter color, and installing a floor and cabinets of muted or pastel colors, the space will appear larger. As for lighting, recessed and accent lighting draw attention to otherwise unnoticed areas, making the kitchen feel and look bigger than it really is.
One essential of small kitchen remolding is to create storage everywhere possible, and not waste space. Some ideas include a storage rack in front of the window, which adds space but doesn’t block light. Another trick is the type of furniture you use - consider a custom drop-down table which can be stowed away when it is not in use, giving you more preparation space.
With the help of a designer and a little imagination, your small kitchen will be looking and feeling bigger in less time than you thought.
