Being the most practical room in the house, it makes sense that you should be able to streamline your processes and storage solutions in the kitchen, doesn't it? 

That's essentially what kitchen designers try to do when they design the ideal kitchen plans for both you and your space, but we've found some extra helpful tips that will see you getting even more out of the room.

Do you find you never quite have enough room, storage or functionality? Then continue reading and prepare to have your eyes opened to all the possibilities that your kitchen offers!

1. Add storage to your storage

With custom crockery holders and personalised solutions within deep drawers.

2. Think vertically

Take your storage higher, not wider!

3. Add hanging rails under your sink

For easy access to cleaning product bottles.

4. Use drawer divides

To get more from your drawers and minimise the chaos. Cutlery needs to be sectioned!

5. Use magnets

If you can, this a great idea to store knives and even pans and lids.

6. Hang awkward utensils

So they don't devour drawer space.

7. Use your ceiling space

If you have some spare, use it to hang pans and larger, bulky items.

8. Store seldom-used appliances

Put them away in drawers to free up counter space.

9. Have a specific space for pan lids

Such as in a storage basket, so they don't get lost.

10. Think about including pull-down cupboards

A really savvy storage idea!

11. Stick to timeless classics or state-of-the-art kitchen appliances

Middle of the road versions won't last long and will date.

12. Make your island extra useful

By using it as a breakfast bar.

13. Swap out all of your light bulbs

For much brighter, energy-efficient LEDs.

14. Freeze any leftover sauce, oil, wine or herbs
