Living in Australian cities can mean higher rent, which often results in a smaller kitchen. But a tiny space doesn’t have to mean sacrificing efficiency or style. Even in compact kitchens, you can still fit everything you need.
This article is for anyone with a small kitchen. We’ll share the best small kitchen ideas and design tips from Goldline’s kitchen experts, helping you optimise your space.
Small Kitchen Design Tips
Goldline’s engineers have spent over 34 years developing state-of-the-art cooktops for small kitchens. Here are our top tips for maximising efficiency and style, even in tight spaces.
Work with the Layout
One of the keys to a functional small kitchen is working with the layout. For instance, in a one-wall kitchen, keep the cooktop, countertops, and cabinets all on the same wall. Avoid cramming elements on both sides, which can make the space feel cluttered.
Hang Things Up
Save counter space by hanging utensils, pots, pans, and other kitchen gadgets. A magnetic knife strip is also a great addition for keeping knives organised and off the bench.
Embrace Minimalism
Keep your kitchen clutter-free by limiting appliances to those you truly need. For example, a toaster oven, electric cooktop, and fridge might be enough. Extra appliances like a rice cooker or kettle can be donated if not essential.
Maximise Storage
Smart storage is crucial in a small kitchen. Open shelving can be used for cups, plates, and bowls, with items sorted by frequency of use. Store less frequently used items on higher shelves, and daily essentials within easy reach.
Narrow Electric Cooktops
A narrow electric cooktop is perfect for smaller countertops. Goldline manufactures the most compact electric cooktops in Australia, which are also highly efficient.
The secret behind Goldline’s electric cooktops is the nine-stage power setting. This allows precise control, taking dishes from a boil to a perfect simmer with ease.
Goldline cooktops combine aesthetics and functionality. The sleek, continuous ceramic glass fits nearly any kitchen design and is easy to clean, maintaining its elegance over time.
We hope these tips inspire you to make the most of your small kitchen. With smart appliance choices and storage solutions, your space can feel brand new.
