Consider getting a peninsula

If you always wanted to have a kitchen island but you don’t have the necessary means for it (enough space), you could always try a PENINSULA!

You can successfully design your compact kitchen in such a manner to add a sleek quartz waterfall edge peninsula that has three seating chairs, and some chic black and gold vintage-style pendant lights to define your space better and add a little bit of retro charm.

Add some groovy graphics

If you have a tiny kitchen space, you can add an intricate geometric patterned tile backsplash that widens all the way to the hood vent, successfully defining the open kitchen area, and adding a little bit of extra movement and interest to your space.

This way, your kitchen will become more dynamic and expansive, and you will manage to leave behind that unpleasant, small, and cramped feeling. Plus, any U-shaped design will offer you the needed space to prepare, cook, and serve meals within arm’s reach.

Go rustic

I personally love the rustic approach. I’ve always dreamt of a small but rustic kitchen, beautifully anchored by a large center oven and outfitted with some stained wood countertops, olive green cabinetry, and some open shelving stacked with dishware, glassware, but also cookware in natural materials.

And instead of a kitchen island, you could simply go with a round bistro table and chairs, which will provide the perfect place for dining and some extra space for meal preparation.

  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.
