""Rows of bulky wall cabinets that dominate the space are a telltale sign of an older kitchen," states Rhiannon Phenis, head of design at Sola Kitchens. "They make the room feel smaller and more closed-in." That said, when devising kitchen layout ideas, they can be hugely helpful when it comes to providing extra kitchen storage, so where should we be putting all the things we once kept in these high level units?"
"providing extra kitchen storage, so where should we be putting all the things we once kept in these high level units?"Opt for open shelving, floating shelves, or a mix of low-level cabinetry and tall larder units," suggests Rhiannon Phenis. "This approach opens up the space, creates breathing room, and lets you showcase beautiful ceramics or glassware - a hallmark of contemporary kitchen design.""
Timeless kitchen design remains a goal for homeowners, but trends change quickly. Some kitchen features have fallen out of fashion and can be updated without a full rip-out. Simple swaps can refresh a stale kitchen. Excessive wall cabinets make kitchens feel cramped and darker. Open shelving, floating shelves, low-level cabinetry and tall larder units create space and showcase ceramics or glassware. These changes provide breathing room and modernize layouts while preserving useful storage. These updates help kitchens feel fresh, modern and stand the test of time.
