Staying Organized in the Kitchen
Like all Bungalow kitchens, our client's space is small compared to modern kitchens — measuring 115 square feet. City lot restrictions precluded any change in the home's footprint. So, we made every inch count with a high-function kitchen design with specialized, task-specific storage throughout:
- An angled cabinet, built to accommodate an awkward side-door location, now holds a trash can, tin-lined recycling bins, and knife drawer;
- A difficult deep corner necessitated by the 28" deep fridge gave rise to open cookbook shelves, an appliance cubby and deep pantry with full-extension roll-out trays;
- An open pot & pan rack, built-in wall spice cabinet, kid-height microwave, customized cell-phone/electronics storage, built-in chalkboard message center, and new rear entry coat/backpack storage with corkboard complete the net storage gain. No new square footage … lots of innovative, high-functioning storage.
