In many ways, your kitchen space dictates which kitchen layouts are available to you. With an open concept design, you can go with a single line with an island or L-shaped with an island. If you have three walls to contend with, you may be restricted to a U-shape or L-shape or G-shape. This is an elegant galley kitchen with a dining area beside it by the window. This dining set has a long dining table paired with dining chairs of the same dark wooden tone as the U-shaped peninsula of the kitchen with a built-in pair of wine storage.
For a sleek and open feel in your kitchen, swap out traditional upper cabinets for floating shelves. This modern design trend not only offers storage solutions but also creates an opportunity to display your favorite kitchenware. Opt for dark floating shelves against white tile backsplashes to achieve a striking contrast that adds depth and visual interest to the space.
