Five tips for a larger looking kitchen

5 simple ways to make your small kitchen look like a big kitchen

1. Lighten up your kitchen
   Steer clear of darker shades and stick to lightening up you floors, walls and cabinetry which will promote the illusion of a bigger room. Surround your kitchen with natural lighting – keep those blinds open and windows clean as much as possible.
    
2. Don’t leave your dirties out for the world to see
   In a smaller kitchen, clutter can turn into chaos pretty quickly and you are restricting the space you have to work with when you leave your dirty dishes out. 
    
3.  Use glass cabinet doors
   Not only are glass cabinet doors contemporary and pleasing to the eye, they also add depth to your cabinets whereby – increasing your perception of the space in your kitchen.  
    
4. De clutter your kitchen
   It’s simple and you will thank us for it. Donate or find a new spot for anything you don’t currently or potentially see yourself having a use for. Everything has a place and that place isn’t necessarily on your kitchen benchtop! 
    
5. Open plan living 
   Whether you’re renovating an existing kitchen, or moving into a new home – an open plan kitchen design will allow the eye to wander further and link your kitchen to the rest of your home.
