The small area makes the kitchen cramped and uncomfortable.
However, even such a room can be made practical.
To do this, it is necessary to rearrange the furniture in a certain way, as well as remove unnecessary details.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told how to make a small kitchen a space in which it is convenient to prepare food.
Place the cabinets correctly
The optimal option for arranging furniture in the kitchen is a “U-shaped” layout.
In other words, the cabinets should be placed so that they form the letter P. Thus, it is advisable to use not one or two, but three walls at once.
Install more drawers
Finding the right utensils will be much easier if the kitchen has fewer cabinets with hinged doors and more furniture with drawers.
Clear the table
The kitchen is a room where you only need to cook food. You should eat food in the dining room or living room.
Therefore, there should be no table in the kitchen. And if you can’t do without this type of furniture, then you should choose a more compact item.
Remove unnecessary devices
All rarely used devices (for example, a food processor, a multicooker, an egg cooker) should be stored in another room.
If any of these appliances are needed, they can be returned to the kitchen without any problems.
Use free space
It would seem that what free space could be left in a cramped kitchen?
In fact, there are several interesting places that housewives usually forget about.
So, you can use the space near the window. In addition, it makes sense to hang shelves and additional hooks on the free walls, as well as on the side walls of the cabinets and refrigerator.
