Small Kitchen, Big Space

Internet didn't help

Before I moved into my new apartment I spent hours scrolling on the Internet and searching ideas for kitchens in small space. I must admit that I could not find any useful ideas since the tiny kitchens were too tiny and small kitchens were too big. I couldn't find single example of a real life mid-class kitchen that actually has all utilities that a kitchen should have.

Designing

Everyone knows that you have to use every inch of space when deciding on furniture in small spaces. My entire apartment is 30 square meter big (322 ft.) and my kitchen is 4 meters (13  ft.) long and 2 (6 ft.) meters wide. Luckily, my husband's best friend works at a furniture factory and he drew some sketches for us. I trusted him and gave him permission to do as he wishes. He decided on style, colors, basically everything. 

The end result 

I couldn't be more than satisfied with my small, but cute kitchen. I manage to put all of my dishes in it. And I am especially pleased with the storage area for my vacuum cleaner. I must admit that I don't own  a dishwasher, but there is enough space left to place a small one if I decide  to get one.
My father helped us (my  husband and me)  with harmonica door installation. The door is used usually to cover up a dirty dishes when my guests come over, but it helps with keeping the odors away. Cute part of the door is top shelf that I used to place my favorite gifts from friends and husband.
