Life changes day by day, and families and our lifestyles change with it; for this reason our options have leaned much more towards functionality, since today our time and our spaces have become quite limited.

That is why we want to share with you these ideas that will help you decorate one of themost important spaces in your home: the Kitchen.

1. Add color

Color is always our great ally when it comes to taking advantage of light and space in the kitchen. In this case, white must dominate the decoration and coatings to enhance these two qualities.

We can even combine or contrast the colors of our living room, dining room or any another space close to it.

2. Take risks with materials

The materials currently used for countertops, drawers or other applications
Inside the kitchen give a lot of variety of color and texture to our spaces.

It’s all about knowing how to play with shades. Picture it: if you use clear materials, they will combine favorably with neutral walls along with dark or very bright color applications.

3. Use Tiles

It seems that the tiles are becoming more outdated, but if you know how to combine them you can get very particular results. According to pages that specialize on decoration: If we want to continue giving a feeling of spaciousness we can put tiles up to mid height and then use another color or texture. With this we are going to get the ceilings to always appear higher.

4. More functional appliances

Household appliances are a key part of this whole issue; first they have
to combine with all the decoration and second, moving on to the topic of functionality you can opt for whites with double functions, for example: finding a microwave that also does the functions of an oven or a washer and dryer; sounds a bit far-fetched but it will facilitate your daily tasks and save space.

5. Less is more space

If we have few cabinets, space and order in the kitchen become very precious things. For this reason we must take advantage of each drawer and shelf with containers that help keep everything in order.

Our grandmothers kept pots and pans in the oven, why not continue with thishome ritual, in addition to taking advantage of other spaces such as the microwave or those drawers that are not fully exploited.

6. Take advantage of your walls

The walls are perfect for ordering some household items, like knives,
pans and spices. Some brands have launched complete sets for walls that can help give us ideas to make better use of the countertop area.

7. The space in the sink

Take advantage of every millimeter of your kitchen, the ideal scenario is to have a double box sink, but if we have little space on the counter we can opt for a simpler and smaller one, in order to later put a folding dish dryer that does not take up much space. This way you will have a lot of space available and you will make the most of your sink.
