Designing a kitchen can be an overwhelming experience as you naturally want your space to be both beautiful and functional. Whether you’re just starting to gather inspiration for your full kitchen renovation or you’re keen to incorporate some smaller design projects into your existing space to give it a new look and feel, here are some ideas to consider.

Happy Doors Pro Replacement Cabinet Doors Tips

A smart storage system can transform your relationship with your kitchen 

It’s no secret that storage is an essential element in every kitchen, however, we really can’t overstate just how important it is to spend some time carefully thinking about how best to organise every cabinet, shelf and drawer.

A fitted kitchen with integrated appliances is one of the best ways to maximise the storage potential of your kitchen. In a contemporary space, choosing slab style or handleless replacement cabinet doors will give a sleek and seamless finish. 

Pro Tip: You can also achieve your country kitchen dreams with a fitted kitchen by choosing more traditional replacement cabinet doors, such as the Bella Stratford or the Bella Westbury.

Channel your inner barista with an integrated coffee bar 

When designing a kitchen, it’s so important to incorporate features that will enhance the way you experience your space. Every coffee or tea lover needs an integrated coffee bar which has plenty of space for your coffee machine, beans, and your collection of mugs. Not only will this improve your coffee making experience, but it will also keep your worktops free from clutter.

Your coffee bar can be as large or as small as your heart desires and your kitchen footprint allows. Sitting your coffee machine on a base cabinet often works well, with a couple of shelves above to house everything else.

Pro Tip: Tucking everything away behind the same replacement cabinet doors you’ve used throughout your kitchen will create a seamless look and feel. However, you could also choose cabinet doors in a different style and/or colour to make this part of your kitchen a real eye-catching feature.

Enjoy the benefits of a perfectly organised pantry 

A well-organised pantry or larder can be a game-changer, especially if you’re a keen cook with a healthy collection of herbs and spices. 

If you want to ensure your pantry is Pinterest-perfect at all times, you could invest in a selection of sleek storage containers with beautifully handwritten labels to fit on your shelves. However, if you don’t mind a bit of organised chaos, you can simply tuck everything away behind chic cabinet doors. 

Pro Tip: Much like a dedicated coffee nook, you can either choose to have your pantry blend in with the rest of your kitchen or make it a stand-out feature in your space.

Create a cosy atmosphere with layered lighting 

It’s always worth spending some time getting your kitchen lighting right, as this will play a huge role in creating the perfect atmosphere at all times of the day.

Overhead pendant lights or ceiling-mounted spotlights can provide valuable task lighting, but if you notice that certain parts of your work surfaces aren’t quite as illuminated as you would prefer, mounting some LED lighting beneath your wall-mounted cabinets is a simple fix that also looks sleek and seamless. 

In addition to task lighting, incorporating some carefully positioned table lamps can give your kitchen an extra feeling of warmth and cosiness. This means that your kitchen will become a truly multi-functional space as it can offer you a place in which to wind down after a busy day in a gently lit space that promotes feelings of calm and peace.
