Title: Work Your Straight Kitchen to Your Benefit

Expert Speak: The straight kitchen lends itself to numerous variations, each of which may be manipulated to suit your specific sense of aesthetics and practicality.

Your straight modular kitchen is designed to save space and give you the best that a modular kitchen has to offer. In fact, this is a model of kitchen often opted for in larger homes as well, to facilitate the accommodation of a dining space. There are several ways to stylize your straight kitchen. Here are some ideas to inspire you:

Save Space: If you are looking to include a straight kitchen in a small space, you will want to make the most of storage. Have your cabinets, ideally a mix of closed and open, go all the way up your wall. This way, you can store larger vessels and those you don’t use regularly, higher up. You may also consider creating wall-mounted options for your larger kitchen appliances. Another option, would be to build space for appliances into your straight kitchen cabinetry. This would probably work if you live alone or are a new couple setting up home.

Create a Galley: A straight kitchen may also be introduced into a large space. In such cases you may consider adding in a kitchen island to help create a triangle for working – cleaning, prepping and cooking. It also forms a galley where you can walk down a corridor of sorts, adding to the charm of your kitchen.

Go Sleek: The benefit of a straight modular kitchen design is that it occupies a minimal amount of space. That being said you may work your space to look glamorous and sleek. For example, consider interspersing empty space between each part of your triangular work area. This you can use to decorate your kitchen or simply to give you more space to maneuver. Bring in a low hanging light or one that you can alter in terms of height to change the look of your kitchen space.

Go Artistic: Turn your straight kitchen into a quirky space of art and craft. Bring in artistic elements with the kitchen as a theme and watch it all come to life. This works especially well if you have a lot of natural light coming into the kitchen. Alternately you may consider adding in-cabinet lights or small light fixtures to do up your space.

The straight kitchen is often perceived as a modular kitchen that has little scope for manipulation. Fact is, sky is the limit when it comes to designing this space.
