Not everyone in Boynton Beach has a spacious or open-concept kitchen. If this is your situation you can still create an impressive kitchen with custom cabinets and backsplashes. Craftsmen that are specially trained are available to do the perfect job. Incorporate your own ideas and maybe blend them with the latest trends to create an award-winning small kitchen.

Often the kitchen is the heart of a home. Even though your space may be somewhat limited, it can still be efficient and roomy enough to accommodate your needs. It takes enough design planning to meet everyone’s needs in your household. Here is a typical list for kitchen uses:

• Food preparation and cooking
• A sink and clean up area
• Food, cooking utensil, and gadget storage
• Serve as a family gathering place
• Doing homework or family finances
• Share special moments together
• Entertaining family and friends
• Craft area for grandchildren

A unique custom kitchen will serve all of these needs and more. Set off this multi-use room with custom cabinets, backsplashes, and a pantry and you have an ideal environment.

How to Make Your Kitchen Appear To Be Larger

When planning your custom cabinets, there are several things you can do to make the kitchen appear to be larger than it really is. These proven ways have worked for many people:

• Replace a small window with a larger tall one.
• Strategically add a mirror to one wall.
• Use light colors on walls, the ceiling, and cabinets.
• Plus, use a low-contrast color scheme.
• Incorporate high-shine accents that make it large.
• Divide the room into two areas: cooking and eating.
• Use glass for some cabinet doors.
• Eliminate all clutter that distracts your attention.

These ideas work well for a galley style, U-shape, or square layout. They are also ideal for a kitchen that is mostly built along one wall and a corner style kitchen. Tip: Discuss making your kitchen look larger with the kitchen craftsmen. They are familiar with cabinet concepts that will accomplish this goal.

Custom Islands and Backsplashes to Go with Your Custom Cabinets

You can design a unique island for your smaller kitchen without sacrificing space. For example, a corner shaped kitchen that opens up can handle a larger island than a galley shaped kitchen. It provides additional counter space for food prep and storage. Lighter colors help make the room look larger with an island in the middle.

Islands

Whoever first thought of kitchen islands didn’t realize what a hit they would be over the years. Even small kitchens can have islands for food preparation and storage. One of the easiest ways to construct an island is to put it on wheels.

It can be rolled into another room when not in use and the room instantly looks larger. Choose a lighter color to blend with the kitchen décor and you have an amazing space.

Two other ideas include creating the island with open storage on the sides and ends and making the island long and narrow. The same people that make your custom cabinets can build an awesome island to go along with them.

Backsplashes

Custom backsplashes are the rage in kitchens today. Use your imagination to come up with something truly unique – something that is really you. The four major considerations are the style, the material, how much is needed, and the cost. If your budget can afford the best then go for it! Typical materials include ceramic tile, granite, glass, and stainless steel.

Remember to choose the above in a combination that creates visual interest without all of it overwhelming the small space. Don’t allow it to seem cramped. Leading custom cabinet makers employ backsplash specialists to create and install your favorite materials.

Don’t Forget a Pantry That Fits the Space

You’ve got to have some pantry space – right? The same craftsmen that build your cabinets can create a smart pantry. A smaller kitchen can be well organized and efficient just like larger ones. One great idea is to extend the cabinets to the ceiling instead of stopping short of it. These tall cabinets can be used for dishes, cooking utensils, and food storage. Keep seldom used items in the garage instead of in the kitchen. You will have more room for food in the cabinets.

Investing in custom cabinetry allows you to maximize the available space in your smaller kitchen. Alert the designer and cabinet makers about how much you want to store in the kitchen. They will alter their construction plans accordingly. Some items bought in bulk like sugar and flour can be kept in the garage without spoiling.
