Kitchen Storage & Organization

The kitchen is the heart of the home, but it’s also one of the most cluttered spaces. From pots and pans to gadgets and spices, kitchens can quickly become disorganized, making it harder to cook, clean, and enjoy the space. Yet with the right systems and strategies, your kitchen can become a well-organized hub that makes daily life easier and more enjoyable.

In "Smart Kitchen Storage", I’ll show you how to transform your kitchen into a clutter-free zone that works efficiently for you. Drawing from my background in landscape architecture and space design, I’ve put together a collection of practical tips, storage solutions, and organizational strategies for every kitchen—whether large or small. Whether you’re organizing a pantry, optimizing cabinet space, or creating more counter room, this book offers creative and simple ideas to help you maximize your kitchen’s potential.

As a professional living lover, I have some tried and true tricks up my sleeve to help you get your small kitchen organized (even if it seems impossible at the moment). The following small kitchen organization ideas will help make your kitchen look larger, hold the things you need it to, and allow you to enjoy cooking, meal prepping, or, perhaps, eating in it. Even if that means standing over the counter while doing so.

Before organizing anything, it’s smart to go through your things and see what you can get rid of to make room. My guess is that you have more reusable water bottles, coffee mugs, or wooden spoons than you need. Individually, they don’t take up much space but when you’re dealing with a small kitchen, every item counts. Make a box of donations every so often and I can guarantee you’ll feel the space open up.
