Space is an issue for most of us, especially if you live in an apartment. But just because you have small space in the house doesn’t mean that you should compromise on your dream kitchen.

Here are 29 small kitchens where interior designers proved that you don’t need a lot of space to make a kitchen beautiful:

​1. Everything in a meter and a half

From chimney to the stove and storage, everything in this kitchen has been easily fitted in a meter and half.

Big mosaic tiles might seem outdated, but small mosaic tiles are definitely a big trend in 2017. 

3. Blue and compact

 The grey and blue provide a perfect balance in this kitchen and they go perfectly with the black top. 

​4. A pop of colour

 If you are tired of the black kitchen tops, then its time to experiment with a brighter colour, like yellow! 

5. Minimal

 Straight lines and subtle cream tones – The designers of this home do know how to keep things minimal. 

​6. More storage

 When you already have a small space for kitchen, taking out a separate kitchen storage is out of the question. That is why, it is better to build as many cabinets and drawers as possible.

 If you have the space, add a small dinner table with 2-3 chairs in your kitchen. Don’t forget to pick bright colours to make the space seem open.
