Here at Hubble, we pride ourselves on creating innovative kitchens that seamlessly fuse aesthetics and practicality. And one of the most important factors when it comes to creating a functional yet stylish interior is storage. Storage is not only crucial to helping you stay organised but is also essential to keep your kitchen looking sleek and clutter-free. Fortunately, we’ve got plenty of clever and attractive storage solutions to help you make the most of your new space. Below are some of our top kitchen storage ideas.
Ingenious Drawers
At Hubble, we are always looking for new ways to innovate and improve our client’s kitchens. One of our top design recommendations is installing drawers instead of cupboards. Enabling you to reach the back of your units with ease, drawers provide much better accessibility than traditional cabinets. Plus, they can be used to store everything from cooking ingredients and spices to pans and crockery. So, you can put the days of emptying your cupboards in search of that one piece of Tupperware behind you.
A Space Maximising Larder
Combining the accessibility of drawers with the capacity of a full-height cabinet, our brilliant space-maximising larders deliver uncompromising functionality. Allowing you to utilise every inch of space and find what you’re looking for in a hurry, they offer to transform how you use your kitchen. And with a range of sizes to choose from, our larder cupboards and matching pull-out base units are ideal for optimising narrow spaces.
Somewhere To Conceal Appliances
Our ingenious pocket door systems are undeniably one of our favourite design features. Whether you’ve always dreamt of a dedicated baking cupboard, a handy breakfast station, or even a secret cocktail cabinet, they offer impressive versatility. However you intend to use your space, you can customise the internal layout to meet your needs. Promoting a seamless uninterrupted workflow and sleek streamlined finish, our clever pocket door systems represent the ultimate in style and functionality.
Clever Corner Storage Solutions
When it comes to kitchen storage, making the most of every available inch of space is an absolute must. Unfortunately, corners can be a little awkward in terms of accessibility, yet few kitchens are without them. If you have corners in your kitchen, a clever corner storage solution like a carousel or pull-out corner optimiser will make reaching the contents of your unit and staying organised so much easier!
Utilise Vertical Space
Another excellent way to utilise every inch of space is to think vertically. Continuing your cabinetry up to the ceiling can create room to store occasional items like serving dishes, small appliances, and other pieces you don’t use every day.
Introduce Wall Storage
Speaking of vertical storage space, have you considered using your walls for more than just cupboards and shelves? A wall-mounted rail can provide a neat place to hang utensils, cups, soap, potted herbs, and more. Wall racks/rails offer a stylish and practical way to keep your worktops clutter-free.
Sleek & Stylish Shelves
Another storage solution that strikes the perfect balance when it comes to style and functionality is shelving. While overhead cupboards are great for keeping clutter out of sight, they can leave your kitchen feeling a bit cramped. Shelves offer a fantastic way to open up your room without sacrificing storage. Plus, displaying a few cookbooks, your favourite crockery, or some potted herbs is a lovely way to enhance your design and add a personal touch to your space.
Elegant Glazed Cabinets
Likewise, a run of stunning glass-fronted cabinets offers the ideal place to display crockery and glassware. Why not incorporate integrated lighting to add interest to your design and take your display to the next level?
A Sophisticated Wine Rack
When planning your kitchen storage, you’ll need to ensure all your belongings have a proper place. Thus, if you’re rather partial to a glass of wine or two, a bespoke wine rack could be just what you need to enhance your design.
Or A Luxurious Wine Cooler
Alternatively, if you’re a true wine connoisseur, why not opt for a built-in wine cooler? As well as keeping your collection at the perfect temperature, a wine cooler can really come in handy when entertaining, freeing up room in your fridge and impressing your guests.
Incorporating plenty of practical storage into your design is fundamental to the longevity and functionality of your kitchen. However, keeping your space sleek and clutter-free is also a fantastic way to ensure your kitchen delivers that wow factor first impression each and every day.
