Many of us are faced with the challenge of making the most of limited kitchen space. But with a little creativity and some clever accessories, you can transform your cramped cooking area into a highly functional and enjoyable space. In this blog, we’ll discuss some smart kitchen remodel ideas tailored for small spaces, with a focus on maximizing every inch.

The Power of Functional Accessories

When space is limited, there can be a lot more tough decisions when it comes to designing a kitchen. That's where functional accessories come in. Many accessories can turn wasted space into valuable storage and convenience.

  • Upgrade Drawer Boxes to Soft Close: Adding soft close technology to drawer boxes allows you to reduce noise and protect the contents inside. Additionally, gain full access to the space.
  • Pull-Out Trash and Recycling Bins: Pull-out bins, integrated into your cabinetry, keep waste hidden and organized. This frees up valuable floor space and creates a cleaner, more streamlined look. You can also consider double bins for easy recycling.
  • Modification of Existing Base Cabinets: Converting a base cabinet from doors to all drawers without replacing the cabinet box changes the look of your space and also adds ease of access to items via drawers.
  • Blind Corner Pullouts and Lazy Susans: Gain access to hidden or inconvenient cabinet space by adding these accessories to better utilize your space.
  • Built-in Phone Charging Stations: With the sheer number of devices we have today, a dedicated charging station is a must-have. Integrate a charging dock into a drawer or a corner of your countertop. This keeps devices off the main work surface and prevents tangled cords. You can also think about adding USB ports directly into your backsplash or other electrical upgrades. Kitchen Tune Up also offers under-cabinet lighting for a seamless experience.
  • Rollout Trays: Deep cabinets can become a black hole of forgotten items. Pull-out shelves make it easy to access everything, eliminating the need to rummage through the back. These are fantastic for organizing canned goods, spices, and even pots and pans.
  • Spice Racks/Cooking Accessories Integrated into Cabinet Doors or Drawers: Keep your spices organized and within reach with a dedicated spice rack. Options range from slim racks mounted on cabinet doors to tiered drawers. Additionally, add pullouts with spots to put your cooking sheets and cutting boards.

Smart Design Strategies

  • Vertical Storage: Utilize wall space to its full potential. Open shelving, pegboards, and magnetic knife strips can add storage and visual interest. You can also consider installing cabinets that reach all the way to the ceiling.
  • Lighten Up: A well-lit kitchen feels larger and more inviting. Under-cabinet lighting, pendant lights, and recessed lighting can brighten up dark corners and create a more spacious feel. Natural light is also very important. Keep windows clear.
  • Streamlined Appliances: Opt for smaller, multi-functional appliances. You can also consider built-in appliances to save space.
  • Consistent Color Palette: A light and consistent color palette can make a small kitchen feel larger. White, cream, and light gray are popular choices.
  • Maximize Corner Space: Corner cabinets can be tricky, but they offer valuable storage. Lazy Susans and pull-out corner shelves can make them much more accessible.
  • Clear Countertops: Keep countertops as clear as possible. The less clutter, the larger the kitchen will feel.
