1. OPEN SHELVING looks stunning, while also creating extra space for storage. Stack the shelves with all your favorite items, or create a carefully balanced display of your most beautiful tableware.
2. LIGHTING is a crucial mood maker or breaker, not least in the kitchen. Layering light adds both comfort and functionality: in addition to a ceiling fixture, consider adding portable lamps to lend a helping glow wherever you need it.
3. UPGRADE YOUR APPLIANCES. Kitchen countertops are easily cluttered with a potpourri of small appliances. Make your mornings a bit more zen by choosing designs that you are happy to leave on display.
