The tiny kitchen may lack the space and counter room to play with décor, but declutter experts and designers contribute easy upgrade ideas for five fun kitchen styles: Modern Farmhouse, Feminine, Rustic, Modern, and Shabby Chic.
The trick, according to Karen Gray-Plaisted of Design Solutions KGP, is to keep it simple.
"Don't overdo the finishes and surfaces," she says, "otherwise it'll look too cluttered. For example, if you have a stainless fridge, install the hardware around it in a similar-looking finish. And keep cabinetry and counters in the same color family, so your kitchen feels more spacious."
