Organized Kitchen Design Ideas

An organized kitchen design has plenty of drawer and cupboard space.


Organized kitchens are designed with specific cupboards, pantries and drawers that make organization easy. These designs feature counter tops with more space and additional room in the pantry. Pantry shelves are designed and installed to make the best use of available space from top to bottom.


Breakfast Island


Install a breakfast island with additional lower cupboard space in the middle of your kitchen. This will create more room for storage and additional places for people to sit. Place a few stools at the widest part of the island. Place additional kitchen items such as pots and pans on the lower part of the island. You can also install a small wine fridge or other additions within the island.








Pantry


Build a pantry fit for kings. This area of your kitchen can hold a lot of food, spices and other items. Leave a large section of floor space at least one-foot tall. This is a place to store additional water or even a large bag of dog food. Make the other shelves deep and wide to hold plenty of food. For additional organization, you can install boxed shelves in the pantry to separate certain food items more easily. For instance, you can have some shelves in a boxed style and some standard shelves. Boxed shelves look similar to boxed "cubby hole" style bookcases. Place your cooking oils in one box and other similar foods in a different box.


Rotating Shelves








Install shelves that rotate. Such shelves provide easy access to a variety of items. These shelves blend with the space underneath your counters and are most convenient when installed in a corner so they can move in a circular pattern. The actual cupboard doors for these shelves are square and blend with the other cabinets. However, when you open the cupboard, you will notice three circular shelves that move in a circle at the base of a pole. Talk to your builder or contractor about available styles of circular shelves.
