[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your kitchen doesn’t sound that big so two things : limited open shelving as it looks great in a curated photograph but is a pain in day to day life. And cabinets to the ceiling. There’s always extra Holiday and party stuff that goes up there. Pull out pantry best thing I ever bought. Neighbor came over while designing his kitchen and ordered TWO for his kitchen. He also removed a wall. It was a small wall but made huge difference. We have the same house layout. Also those Schuler solid wood cabinets from Lowers we have those. Very nice. [/quote]

Just popping in to say op if you really know yourself well and think you'll enjoy open shelves, you might. I have a small kitchen and I love our open shelves. I have more than enough space for the things I need, I love the way I look and I actually find it incredibly functional. I know different strokes for different folks, but there genuinely are people that actually have them and like them. We were very thoughtful about our other cabinet space and planning it so it would meet our needs, but having most of our lowers be drawers solved most gaps. We tend towards more minimalism (but definitely aren't "minimalist" in an extreme way at all) so you do need to know yourself. If you are someone that likes to have multiple different sets of wine glasses, or a different glass for each purpose then yes maybe not for you. But I just see people getting shot down on open shelves here so much and there really are people that it works very well for.  I also have a good friend that has a small kitchen with open shelves who also loves it, so I know I'm not the only one. [/quote]
