Remodeling a kitchen is an exciting time for any homeowner. When planning your renovation, maximizing storage in your kitchen design is an important element in creating your dream kitchen. More storage will help you stay organized and will make your new kitchen enjoyable to use. Here are a few ideas to increase your kitchen storage space.

How to Increase Storage Space in Your Kitchen

1. Vary Drawer Sizes

Outfit your kitchen with a variety of shelving and drawer sizes. This will maximize space in irregular and smaller areas, as well as allow you to organize your items based on the size of your shelves and drawers. Install shallow and deep drawers, as well as wide and narrow shelving units to get optimal storage space.

2. Use Tall Kitchen Cabinets

When space is limited, or you want to make use of as much square footage as possible, install tall pantry cabinets. Use rollouts for deep pantry storage, or shallow shelf units for easy access.   

3. Add an Island

An island countertop adds extra space for prepping food, and the island’s base can be used to install additional cabinets and drawers. Each side of the piece can serve a different function. You can, for example, install a built-in wine rack or bookcase on one side and a set of drawers or microwave on the other.
