The building blocks of the heart of homes, kitchen cabinets are among the major features that are mainly involved in most remodeling projects. One of the most dominant surfaces in the area, they collectively contribute to the overall look and feel of kitchens and can easily capture an ambiance that you want to the area to emanate with. Aside from aesthetics and appeal, these items are greatly responsible for the organization. To boost everyday productivity and functionality, maximize storage with kitchen cabinets and this article lays out top tips to achieve just this.
Freestanding Kitchen Islands
Shelf Unit Storage
One popular addition that many homeowners take delight in including into the decor is a freestanding kitchen island. Aside from having more storage with the base kitchen cabinets that it has, a great advantage of having this is the flexibility that it offers both in design and functionality. Freestanding, your island can be moved around to fit whatever look or purpose you have in mind from a dramatic focal point to take center stage, or a corner breakfast table to enjoy some quiet, hearty meals.
To start off, the first thing to determine is the size of your planned kitchen island. Generally, you should follow a standard 36 to 42 inches between the island and the surrounding cabinets or walls. This allows for ease in opening doors whether of kitchen cabinets in the island, those along the countertops, as well as refrigerator's and oven's. The height of freestanding islands usually follows the height of your existing countertops.
Sideboards
A sideboard surely is a handy addition to your collection of kitchen cabinets. For a relatively amount of space that it takes out of the overall square footage of the area, it offers storage for a wide range of items from table linens, serving pieces as well as other dishware. Being a separate item from your kitchen cabinets, this does not really have to look like the rest. If you are feeling daring and creative, create your sideboard into an accent in the interior design by making it into a furniture-like cabinet unit, decorating it with moldings and trims; or coating it with a bold color.
Window Seats
What better way to accentuate your wide windows than by building pretty windows along their base? Aside from being an attractive addition that serves as an area to languish, you are also creating more storage because of the kitchen cabinets that you can integrate under the seats. This is an ideal project if the hub of your home has an area that features windows. The seats with kitchen cabinets can be built to fit the exact sill height and width of the window no matter the size.
Organizational Add-Ons
Maximizing storage offered by your kitchen cabinets does necessarily mean building and adding more to the set that you already have. Simple additions that can boost organization can take you a long way in doing so. Such delightful add-ons include: lazy susans, wine racks, pegboard drawers, hideaway cabinet bins, pullout pilasters, and other innovative organizers.
