Size does not impede creativity and style in any environment, your small kitchen can and should please your eyes.
Ideas on how to decorate (arrange) a small kitchen
Decorating a small kitchen can be done in the same way as a larger kitchen. Choose finishes and decorative elements that suit you best and complement the style of the rest of your home.
But it is very important to understand that every choice you make for a small kitchen will have much more impact than it would have in a larger kitchen; Therefore, be careful about choosing too many highlights at the same time.
So whether you choose a paint color, bold tiles, or a maximalist wallpaper for the walls, each will look much more vivid and dominant than in a large kitchen.
The idea is to limit the choice to very vivid or bold options so as not to cause too much visual information.
The path of subtlety doesn't have to mean monotony, much less limit your style, quite the contrary, there are many ways to compose that style you love in a small kitchen.
Some important information:
The Best Layout for a Small Kitchen
In terms of small kitchen layouts (the way furniture, pieces and appliances are arranged), the Gale or hallway kitchen format is a popular choice.
It's an efficient choice. Keep in mind that the width of a kitchen should be 2.1m (6.60 Feet) to 3.7m (12.14 Feet ) with a minimum of 0.9 m (2.95 Feet) between opposing countertops, space to walk between countertops and is the best solution for kitchens where one person uses it. For a more flexible layout, 1.2 (3.94 Feet) to 1.5 m (4.92 Feet) of space between countertops is ideal.
Hallway kitchens, with their linear simplicity, have a timeless appeal, regardless of the size of your space. And being open plan (integrated) is even better, it is a very practical and surprisingly elegant compact solution.
There are other shapes like U shape, L shape or a line that also work well
The Best Color for a Small Kitchen
The best color for any small space ultimately depends on what you want from the space, but don't let size stop you from being bold.
The long-established preference is a light color, which can be any color, as long as it is diluted to enlarge small spaces.
But that doesn't mean you need to be afraid of using colors, logically an entire red kitchen in a small space can be quite exaggerated. A detail here, another there can work. A technique that I really like is to use the strongest color at the bottom and lighten the upper area (2/3 of the height of the lighter wall)
Whether you prefer the light palette, incorporating interesting shapes through curved units, or adding a strong statement piece like a chandelier or designer bar stools can create a really dynamic room that's easy to update.
An Island In A Small Kitchen?
When it comes to outfitting a kitchen, a frequently asked question is 'can I put an island in a small kitchen?' The good news is that there is usually always a way to make this work.
An island unit is perhaps the most popular feature in a kitchen and can work well in a small kitchen.
With the addition of attractive pendant lights or an attractive work surface, it can become the centerpiece of the room's design.
In an open kitchen, use an island or peninsula to divide the kitchen and dining area.
Another interesting idea is to use the dining table with an island function, which saves space and adds work area.
