Closed Cabinets

An attractive and functional solution for the kitchen is a cabinet system with no gaps between walls and ceiling. It can be integrated into any interior, from a small Khrushchyovka to a spacious new building. If you hide kitchen utensils behind cabinet doors, the space will always look clean and tidy. Closed cabinets free up space from visual clutter, and dishes and kitchenware won't stand out from the overall interior style.

Kitchen Cabinets to the Ceiling

Upper shelves significantly increase storage space. Kitchen cabinets to the ceiling look stylish and modern. Thanks to tall cabinets, you can reduce the area occupied by the cabinet system without losing storage volume.

Slide-Out Sections

It's convenient to store large sets of dishes, spices, food products, and cleaning supplies in slide-out drawers and sections. Nothing will get lost in the chaos. These mechanisms are convenient because you can reach items from a shelf without having to reach far into the cabinet.

Space Around the Refrigerator

Vertical cabinet panels and shelves save space well and are perfect for storage. You can use the space around windows, doors, or the refrigerator for their placement. Upper shelves are ideal for storing rarely used items, and side walls can be used as decorative shelves.

Original Approach

Sometimes it's quite difficult to make use of the space in a kitchen corner. The problem can be solved with a special slide-out construction. Take a look at the photo below — in this kitchen, the cabinet section opens from both sides. The grill shelf slides out onto the work surface and retracts back after use.
