Tips to visualize the small kitchen as spacious



Refining interiors is very important which in turn can give relaxing qualities and offer a sense of calm. Kitchen is important for everyone from amateur chefs to television show like Master Chef. These days with high price real estates apartments and houses are really high on space crunch and the feeling of large space is getting lost in the cozy apartment as space is normally the element which is lacking.

Kitchen is one area in the house where people actually have to have a feeling of a larger space.

Still with proper refinements, some adjustment and some small lookouts the tiny space can be worked as wonders. There can be some illusion created in order to have the feeling of a larger area.

Consider mirror

Mirrors are useful when there is no natural light in kitchen. Trust me having natural light in kitchen is like a dream come true. Mirrors actually help to open the space and they reflect the light in the kitchen area.

Color themes


We all know how colors are important in our life. Light colors gives a visual of expanded space. If you have a good view outside the window it will be a better idea to bring the outdoor color inside and then decide the color based on contrast. Keeping light color palette on kitchen tops, back splashes, walls and mill work also helps a small kitchen feel more open and airy.

Shelving the kitchen

This really does not go that easy with homemakers as it need a lot of cleanliness and hygine. But if a proper maintenance can be done open shelves are really helpful. Open shelves provides ease of access for dishes glasses and jars. If the ceiling in house is low it is always better to have a secong thought if you are planning for upper cabinets.

Overlooked areas in kitchen

There are certain areas which are actuallly overlooked when we design the kitchen. Floor is one of the elements which is overly overlooked and is considered as part of kitchen interiors at all. However a pattern floor will add an expansive view to the kitchen. It is always good to to a patterned flooring for the kitchen area.

Lighting

It is always good to have a pendant or hanging light on the island kitchen or breakfast table. Having good light while cooking adds to the feel of cooking as well. Under cabinet lighting recessed and or flush fixtures can add a lot to the kitchen.
