Generally, suitable color palettes for a minimalist kitchen are neutral or bright colors.

If the space is small and limited, consider using bright color combinations. This not only applies to the walls but also to kitchen appliances and equipment.

3. Sorting Kitchen Items

Organizing the kitchen to make it neater can also be done by sorting out which items should be kept in the kitchen and which should not.

Then create a list of kitchen utensils that can be stored outside or inside cabinets. This way, even a small and simple kitchen can appear more spacious, and you won't waste time searching for cooking tools.

4. Grouping Similar Items

This is crucial when figuring out how to efficiently arrange the kitchen.

Store all plastic wraps and tin foil in the same drawer.

Place plates, cups, glasses, and daily eating utensils close to each other.

This way, when you need them for dining, everything is within easy reach.

5. More Open, No Doors

It's not a new idea that partitions can make a room appear cramped. Therefore, not using kitchen doors will make the kitchen area seem more spacious. It also improves air circulation, making the space feel fresher.

If the layout, color, and kitchen equipment are already in line with the minimalist concept, the next step is to maintain it. Try to ensure that items are placed where they belong.

Bills or recipe books scattered on the kitchen table can make your minimalist kitchen look untidy.

Good luck trying these tips!
