73 First-rate Butcher Block Island Table

Bronagh Byrne. Kitchen. December 06th , 2020.

When you have just a few cabinet doors and a small stretch of countertops, your best bet for making a decorative splash just might be your refrigerator. This homeowner didn’t let size get in the way of showcasing artwork in this teeny kitchen. In fact, he took the opportunity to let oversized art shine. The ’70s are alive and well in this retro kitchen, whose chartreuse color palette and simple cabinetry give off a groovy feeling. Should you have a small dated kitchen you’re not too happy about, try leaning harder into its era to really make the most of it.

If you’ve run out of wall and counter space, look up. Your ceiling is often untapped (and full of potential). Try a heavy-duty ceiling pot rack or try a DIY project like the owners of this small kitchen who created a hanging bar. Apartment Therapy writer Nancy Mitchell lives in a small studio in Manhattan with very limited counter space. She remedied that by bringing in a compact rolling cart which acts as an island.

Set against a rich black wall this knife set fits perfectly with the existing matte textures. An effect that most certainly would be lost if hidden in a counter-hoarding butcher block We love the use of the decorative lighting in this small yet bright kitchen. While inset can lights could have been used, the pendants add such a nice touch.

Sometimes, all you need to create a small dining area for one or two is a tiny table tucked in any open space you might have between cabinets and your appliances, like in this hyper efficient (and totally lust-worthy) kitchen.

There are Lots of style options to explore and choose from when designing a home. But some are more suitable than others in the case of certain areas of the house. For example, in the case of the kitchen, a modern or contemporary design would be the best. It’s always best to keep up with the technological improvements and changes and in order to do that without obtaining a décor where styles clash is to keep up with the styles as well.

In a narrow space, it’s sometimes best to opt for a simple color scheme like this to keep the look as airy as possible. The chevron detail keeps the palette consistent, but adds extra visual interest.

As for the fixtures and appliances, some models are preferred. An under-mount sink is preferred to a drop-in model because it’s more practical and hygienic. Stainless steel appliances are usually chosen and they also usually feature similar finishes and designs. This detail helps with the overall décor that needs to be minimalist but still cohesive and stylish. But to better understand this style and to also find some inspiration for future projects, we have prepared a series of examples.
