Keep your kitchen as streamlined as possible

If you have a small L-shaped kitchen that’s seamlessly built into a corner of a bigger dining space, there are many things you could do to make it look better! Even if the proportions might tell you otherwise, you could even add a large table and chairs.

Also, you could paint your kitchen fully-white, and add glossy lacquered cabinetry to blend with the white. And do you know what else it might need? A big window will allow the light to live up the little kitchen space you’ve got, which will make it seem even more open and airy.

Make your view of the center-stage piece in the kitchen

In a galley-style city apartment kitchen made by Georgia Zikas Design, you could see a corner banquette that’s carefully squeezed in at the far end beneath a window with a wonderful skyline view.

There’s also a round tulip-style table with no sharp edges, which allows easier maneuvering in such a compact space. Glass-front cabinetry will help keep the narrow galley kitchen from seeming too tight.

Also, if you add a gleaming tile backsplash on the opposite wall, you’ll manage to bounce the light around.

  1. This is idiotic! Clicking on Crafty Captain to see 12 tips to make the most out of small kitchen space reveals nothing of the kind. You suck!

  2. pictures don’t match description. last pictures is of a massive kitchen with a 60″ stove with double ovens and a griddle in the middle. How is this a space saver design????

  3. like the configuration here, kind of fits in my back wall space. sometimes not sure about open shelves but may work depending on your needs. If you also want an island and the back wall of cabinets maybe a sliding island that fits under the back wall cabinet would work out. It’s imperative you only have what you need to work with before you do any new cabinets or shelves. A kitchen full of items you don’t use will cost you in the end. When a restaurant or any fast place is made they design according to menu and necessary equipment. Some people love to bake and others basics like coffee toast and dinner on the stove. micro and air fryer. Design around your needs.
