Exquisite kitchen design, making a 4-square kitchen as large as 12 square meters

      Is the kitchen too small a problem that has been bothering you for a long time? There are too many kitchen supplies, making the kitchen look like a pile of miscellaneous items, filled with various items, and even having to occupy the location of restaurants, living rooms, and even functional rooms.

      The kitchen may be a bit small, but incorrect design schemes and unreasonable item placement can affect the utilization of kitchen space. The smaller the kitchen, the higher the demand for utilization.

      How to solve this problem?

      Many people believe that the most suitable layout design for a small kitchen is a straight and L-shaped. In fact, as long as the kitchen space is reasonably designed, regardless of the layout, the small kitchen can be designed with reasonable movement lines, greatly improving cooking efficiency.

      Next, we will introduce some clever design cases that significantly improve the utilization of kitchen space.

1: One line kitchen

      The linear kitchen features smooth and convenient operation, including washing, cutting, and frying vegetables. The three functional areas are all in the same straight line, and the cabinets above and below store various kitchen utensils, which not only facilitates the use of cooking in daily life, but also greatly increases the storage capacity.

2: L-shaped kitchen

      The zoning of the L-shaped kitchen is very clear. By utilizing the position of the countertop in the corner area, separate the washing area from the cooking area to make the kitchen wiring more reasonable.

3: U-shaped kitchen

      The U-shaped kitchen is compact and convenient. Just turn around and you can reach any corner of the kitchen, making it convenient and fast. Each functional area is within reach, making cooking more efficient and convenient.

4: Semi open kitchen

      The lighting area of a semi open kitchen is much larger than that of a typical designed kitchen, making the kitchen space appear more spacious. At the same time, the semi open design connects the kitchen, living room, dining room, and other spaces, enhancing the interactivity between each space.

5: Embedded kitchen appliances

      The reason for the narrow space in the small kitchen is largely due to the occupation of space by kitchen appliances. Therefore, embedded design of kitchen appliances can effectively increase kitchen activity space and ensure uninterrupted cooking operations.

6: Appliance embedded cabinet style kitchen

      Embed ovens, dishwashers, and other kitchen appliances into the cabinet, freeing up more space for the operating table and reducing overcrowding in the kitchen. Combining embedded kitchen appliances, consider the storage function of adjacent cabinet space, such as placing egg beaters and baking ingredients in the cabinet on the oven, to make the cooking process more organized.

7: Diagonal hanging cabinet

      The kitchen space is small, and the hanging cabinets next to the windows sometimes block some of the light coming in from the windows. Therefore, designing the hanging cabinet next to the window opening position as a diagonal open hanging cabinet not only improves the utilization rate of the wall corner position, but also facilitates daily retrieval and storage of items.

      The kitchen space is small, and often it is because the storage space is not well designed, which can easily lead to many kitchen supplies being out of place. Therefore, doing a good job of storage is the best way to expand without expanding space.

8: Hidden design

      The hanging cabinet can carry out a certain hidden design. Items that are easy to be damp in the kitchen can be placed in the hanging cabinet with the cabinet door, and some commonly used kitchen supplies, such as spices, can be placed in the open hanging cabinet, which is more convenient for daily access.

9: Reasonable utilization of corner areas

      The corner position is awkward, making it extremely inconvenient to retrieve and place items. The design of corner pull baskets can be added, which not only solves the problem of inconvenient retrieval at corners, but also increases storage space for the kitchen.

10: Drawer partitions are organized and organized

      The floor cabinet is designed as a drawer style and utilizes partition components to optimize internal storage, making it less cluttered and more convenient to retrieve small items in the kitchen.

11: Wall mounted system

      The storage space in the kitchen is limited, so it is necessary to make reasonable use of the space on the walls. Place commonly used items in the kitchen on the wall panel, as far as you can see, making it very convenient to hold tools no matter what you are doing.

What about spatial oppression?

      The kitchen is small, giving people a feeling of oppression and affecting the cooking mood. Therefore, when designing a small kitchen, we need to pay attention to visual design.

12: Light colors make the space less oppressive

      The combination of cabinet colors should mainly focus on fresh and bright light colors, which can weaken the oppression of the small kitchen and make it visually more spacious.

13: Dual color scheme for clearer zoning

      Designing cabinets in two different colors allows for clear functional zoning while also reducing the monotony of the kitchen.

14: Lighting design makes the kitchen more cozy

       It is not enough to only have ceiling lights in the kitchen. It is necessary to add hidden or inductive light strips to make the kitchen lighting design more reasonable. Not only can it effectively improve the visual effect of the small kitchen, but it can also make the kitchen space more cozy.
