4.  Think Vertically

Storage is unquestionably one of the main challenges in any house, but it’s absolutely necessary for a small kitchen. If you’re looking for ways to maximize the space, opt for a one-wall kitchen. Not only is this great for smaller areas, but it also creates an impactful look. This kind of system maximizes efficiency without sacrificing functionality, which is awesome. Think vertically and use as much storage space as feasible by taking advantage of the height of your walls.

Once you’ve decided where this wall kitchen is going to go, start thinking about light. Wall-to-wall cabinetry tends to block out light in a small kitchen, making the area appear more cramped and smaller. Since this isn’t your purpose at all, make sure you check No. 3 by including some open shelving. Using this on the upper half of the wall can also help the kitchen appear taller.
