Whatever the size of your kitchen; making the most of the space you have available is key.
Creating an illusion of a larger space is easy with smart storage.
So whether you’re a hoarder of crockery and quirky kitchen accessories, or you keep your kitchen gadgets minimalist, smart kitchen storage ideas can help to create that designer kitchen style you’re looking for.
1. Cabinet door storage
Whether you pin your noticeboard inside your breakfast cereal cupboard on the back of the door, or you add an extra pocket on the door for storing those extra items, don’t dismiss the potential of a cabinet door!
2. Rolling shelves
Tiered, rolling shelves are a great way to make the most of your cabinet space.
One would typically just pop items on the base level of a cabinet, but there’s all that extra space on the sides and above that you could be made use of.
Rolling cabinet storage is relatively easy to get hold of and can also be built in by a carpenter.
3. Ceiling mounts
Add some visual interest to your ceiling with a metal or wooden mount rack to hang pots and pans from.
For a charming country cottage look you could also add bunches of dried flowers in between each pot and pan to create an enviable focal point.
4. Cabinet hooks
If there’s one item that’s a nightmare to store neatly in a cabinet it’s pots and pans.
Stack them up and the one you want will always be the one that’s hardest to get to; you may also risk damaging and scratching them too.
By hanging hooks from the top of your awkward cupboards you’ll be able to make the most of your cabinet space.
5. Rethink the splashback
Turn your splashback into knife storage by installing a magnetic strip.
This not only frees up counter space, it also adds a contemporary touch to your kitchen.
6. The kitchen island
Simple and practical, the kitchen island serves a number of purposes in the kitchen.
It can be used for storage, as a breakfast bar and for food preparation all at the same time.
Even in smaller kitchens an island can work as it reduces the amount of countertop space needed around the edges of the kitchen.

CONTEMPORARY ELEGANCE FOR A PERIOD HOME
When Zee and Adam decided to transform their kitchen, they explored several companies before selecting Kitchen Design Centre in Barrowford.
Contemporary elegance for a period home
It was Simon Thomas, the Showroom Manager, who stood out with his exceptional design expertise and ability to offer creative, tailored solutions.
The couple were particularly impressed by the Barrowford showroom, liking its large size and the variety of stunning displays. They liked the main flagship display and it inspired their final design, as they adopted many features including the large island and Graphite and Taupe colour scheme.
Seeking a modern update to their traditional kitchen, Zee and Adam tasked Simon with reimagining the space while respecting the period property’s original features. To achieve their vision, they decided to remove a wall and merge two rooms, creating a spacious, open-plan kitchen and living area that now spans the length of their home.

A STUNNING CLASSICAL KITCHEN FOR A LUXURY APARTMENT
When Karen and Peter downsized from their farm, they opted for a luxurious apartment in a historic hall in Holmfirth, Yorkshire. For their dream kitchen, they turned to Lauren Couperthwaite at Kitchen Design Centre, Housing Units, Failsworth.
Initially considering a local bespoke kitchen company, Karen found they couldn’t match the extensive product range and expert design skills of Kitchen Design Centre.
The brief was to celebrate the apartment’s grand architectural features—high ceilings, natural light, and intricate coving—while crafting a kitchen that blended seamlessly with the home’s traditional aesthetic. Lauren’s choice of a pale sage green ash-effect eucalyptus finish brought timeless charm, perfectly paired with classic handles.
