🥄 Living with a Tiny London Kitchen? Same. Here’s How to Make It Work.

If you live in London, chances are your kitchen isn’t exactly massive. Welcome to the club! Whether you’re in a cute little flat in Hackney or a classic terrace in Notting Hill, space is tight — but that doesn’t mean your kitchen can’t be stylish and super functional.

Here are a few things that actually help (yes, from someone who’s been there):


🧱 Go Vertical

Seriously, if your walls aren’t doing some of the work, you’re missing a trick. Hooks, shelves, rails — even magnetic knife strips. Get that stuff off the counter!


🍽️ Fold It, Hide It, Slide It

Multi-purpose furniture is your best friend. Fold-down tables, extendable counters, or that IKEA cart that somehow fits everywhere? Game-changers.


💡 Light = Space (At Least Visually)

Keep things light and bright. White cabinets, glossy tiles, and even a cheeky mirror splashback can make your kitchen feel way bigger than it actually is.


📦 Storage Ninjas Unite

Hidden drawers, pull-out shelves, baskets on top of cabinets — small kitchens are all about smart storage. Every inch counts.


🌱 Add Some Vibes

Even if it’s tiny, your kitchen should feel you. Add a plant, hang a fun print, or show off your favorite mugs. Like I did with this bright red rug. It’s your space — let it feel good.
