September 14, 2020

Kitchen in a Carmel apartment

Just because you're renting doesn't mean your apartment's kitchen has to be anything less than amazing. With a few smart apartment kitchen ideas for your Carmel apartment, you will be able to create any meal in style – regardless of the size of your space. Amaze your guests at your next feast with your intelligent kitchen design and fresh approach by using these simple tips.

Keep reading to find six easy ideas on how to transform your apartment's kitchen, no matter how ample your space is or your apartment layout.

 

Consider Your Most Commonly Used Kitchen Appliances And Utensils

Do you love to throw some ingredients in a crock and arrive home to a delicious dish that's hot and ready? Have you not turned on your blender in over a month? Take stock of which utensils and appliances you use most often and store the rest away on a cabinet shelf. Not only will this open up space in the kitchen, but you'll save time when cleaning.

 

Consider An Island For Your Carmel Apartment Kitchen

When counter space is limited, incorporating an island into your kitchen may offer the extra room you want. Add even more convenience to your kitchen setup by utilizing an island with wheels. These handy surfaces will double as a secondary table, staging area, or they can be stored out of the way when extra floor space is required.

 

Save Space with a Knife Strip

One of the smartest apartment kitchen suggestions for your Carmel apartment is to replace the clunky knife block for a magnetic, wall-attached knife strip. You will find that professional kitchens take advantage of them for their unique function. No matter the length or location, a knife strip will add a modern flair to any cooking space. Just be careful to install it out of reach of children!

 

Create More Space with a Peg Board

Wherever you need more space, hanging a pegboard may be an effective solution. Pegboards will support enough weight to hang heavier pans or be used to show off your mug collection in a fun display. A mix of suspended plants in company with your most-used kitchen equipment allows you to stash your tools without stowing them in cabinets. A pegboard adds both style and function to any apartment kitchen in a distinct manner.

 

Use Your Sink As A Cutting Area

Any size sink can double as a much-needed space for any job. You can buy a sink cover for drying dishes or for use as a cutting board. When you want to turn on the water, place the top back in a storage area. You can even put down your current cutting board lengthwise over the top of your sink for an instant sink cover.
 

Save Space With Backless Stools

Convenient backless counter stools for your Carmel apartment kitchen bar are a fantastic way to maximize your space without sacrificing style or much-needed seating. Simply move them underneath the bar when not in use.
