How to Arrange a Corner Kitchen: 5 Useful Tips

A corner kitchen is traditionally considered a good solution for small apartments: when furniture is placed along two perpendicular walls, space in the center can be used to set up a dining area. However, this layout option is not suitable for every kitchen. Today we will talk about the nuances of designing a corner cabinet that are useful to know when creating a kitchen interior.

1. Match the Kitchen to Your Layout

A kitchen with a G-shaped layout has undeniable advantages: first, it is easy to fit into a small space and use the walls to their maximum; second, all the most important kitchen elements—refrigerator, stove, and sink—are located close to each other. However, the corner element will most likely have to be custom-made, which increases the cost of the kitchen cabinet and makes it unfamiliar to use at first if you are used to linear furniture placement.

An important detail: a corner cabinet will save space only in a room whose shape is close to a square. If you are arranging a narrow kitchen, it makes sense to place furniture along one wall: the sink or cabinet in the corner will take up too much space in the narrow part of the room.
