1. retractable worktop
When working surface densely occupied appliances and utensils, cooking is simply nowhere. This pattern is familiar to owners of small kitchens. How to unload the table top, we'll talk, but to act, and can be on the contrary. For example, complement retractable headsets panel instead of one of the upper boxes. The simplest scenario - turn the box upside down, to strengthen further the panel and thus obtain a stationary cutting board.
2. ground box
The lower part of the kitchen units can also work for you. Removing the decorative panel, ordering narrow the width of the drawer unit and dispose of it as you like. Space height of 10-15 centimeters is suitable for storing general utensils (festive meals, baking, solid caps) or useful to your pet. We know how you get tired of tripping over a bowl of food under their feet.
3. Cups at hand
Cups and plates taken place in the upper section of the headset, and pans - in the bottom. This is proven over the years, but not the only possible scenario storage. See how many cups and glasses placed in the usual drawer beneath the work surface. In this case, all items in plain sight - you no longer have to get up on his toes and painful search for a favorite dish in the dark bowels of a suspended cabinet.
4. What have you got under the sink?
Try to guess the pipes, trash and sinister store household chemicals. Given the depth of kitchen units, you are likely to have long forgotten what lies at the wall, not to mention the fact, to crawl under the sink with the head and do the cleaning in the corners. Help comes easiest drawer with low walls, as in the photo. Price components - both two dinners in the cafe plus a minimum of effort.
5. Shelves on the door
Cabinet doors are not only a barrier to dust, but also a useful storage area. Mount the inner flange onto the jar with depth spicesAnd you no longer have to wonder, how convenient to place kitchen stuff.
6. Domestic cups povaroshek
Ladles, skimmers and beaters, especially if a lot of them are not always placed in a horizontal box. Exit - to organize storage vertically. Any suitable narrow section of the headset, for example butylochnitsa, if you nowhere. To turn the box into a narrow vertical storage system, cut enough in any panel of the circle of diameter cups. So cooking utensils at hand, and the glasses will be easy to remove and wash if necessary.
7. Perforated plate for vertical storage
Board with holes "in the garage" or metal mesh - quite worthy of a decorative element if it properly apply. Do not hesitate to paint the board in the kitchen color and hang it on the apron or a partition that there exists even in the tiny room. Ability to store in a board almost unlimited: a pair of metal hooks from the store for the house, and you can hang pans, pot holders, and even a section for sponge - on that last fantasy.
8. Organizer rails
Another useful idea with perforated board - it lay in a deep drawer and complete the vertical rails to the size of dishes. Now you can store not only the pan, but also ceramics: plates and saucers not be broken, even if you slam a drawer sharply.
9. Pocket for caps
Pots and lids in the kitchen often need to be separated because of the large-diameter and large size. All anything, but at the most inopportune moment, the pair is often lost. To collect large utensils in one place, a vegetable garden space covers a narrow pocket inside the big box general. With this arrangement, you will be well visible diameter dishes.
10. We hang all
The bottom surface of the closed drawers or open shelves can be mounted tidy hooks and store them on the coffee cups, brush or trowel. As practice shows, the hook is never too much: in our example in the photo work multiple systems.
11. Levitating banks for spices
Arrange condiments on the table - then sign up for an eternal confusion: the banks will fall from any accidental movement, and to make elementary cleaning, Will have to move all the "battery" to a safe distance. Much easier to secure them under the top line of kitchen cabinets: glue the lid and unscrew the banks themselves, if necessary.
12. corner construction
The angle of a typical headset - this is perhaps the most mysterious place in the kitchen. Usually live here pans that you throw a pity, though long overdue, or utyatnitsu you goes to every year. That precious footage is wasted, add corner cabinet tilt-and-slide-out basket or shelf-carousel. Both can be incorporated into the finished kitchen, and components found in the majority of manufacturers.
13. end cabinet
Hall and kitchen - two rooms, which are often in need of cleaning. But I bet you did not design the kitchen niche for mops and other large accessories. It is too late to correct the flaw solve the problem very narrow front cabinet, which naturally will close the kitchen line.
14. Knives in the worktop
Cooks with experience advise: before you start to cook, remove not only the ingredients, but also all the necessary utensils. But no matter how we tried to follow the clever advice, be sure it turns out that now need a completely different knife and he was lying in the drawer where you do not want to climb with dirty hands.
If the countertop material allows it to make cuts. To the storage system will not reach exactly the young children and the knives will always be ready. If the worktop is not amenable to treatment may be provided for knives special wooden box.
15. Mezzanine above the refrigerator
If the refrigerator is not integrated into the overall system cabinets, the space above it is likely, even if it is a crime against the ergonomics small kitchen. Between the refrigerator and the ceiling can be mounted mezzanine full closed or open shelves sections for bottles, as in our example.
