Living in South Africa usually involves accepting unusual and occasionally small living quarters. One place where intelligent design really stands out is in the kitchen. If what you're looking for is an efficient and stunning kitchen but are cramped for space, don't worry! In spite of limited square meters, even the tiniest kitchen can be transformed into an extremely productive and pleasant area through ingenious custom kitchen solutions.


At Mi-Hi Designer Kitchens, we are aware of the dilemma of small kitchen design in South Africa. That's why we are committed to designing & manufacturing custom kitchen solutions that make the most of every corner, in line with your style and according to your unique requirements....


Here are some essential tips on how to convert your small kitchen into an extended and chic room:


  1. Adopt Vertical Thinking: The Strength of Tall and Smart Cabinetry

    In case of limited floor space, go upwards! Custom cabinetry makes it possible to maximize vertical space. Think of:

    Floor-to-ceiling cabinets: Maximize storage and do away with awkward gaps.

    • Pull-out shelves: Provide easy access that can be hidden again.

    Eye-level open shelving: Showcase beautiful objects and leave space for openness (put them within easy grasp distance or for less used objects).

    2. Smart Storage Spaces: Use Every Nook and Cranny

    Goodbye cluttered countertops! Custom design makes it possible for built-in storage to keep everything in order:

    Organizer drawers: Split drawers for cutlery, utensils, and also for pots and pans, allowing all to be found at your fingertips.

    Pull-out pantries: Utilize narrow spaces for organized food storage.

    Corner cabinet solutions: Lazy Susans or pullout systems convert awkward corner spaces into useful areas.

    Integrated spice racks: Place your spices at hand's reach while not occupying precious counter space.

    3. Multifunctional Wonders: That do More

    In every small kitchen, each item of furniture must do its share:

    • Kitchen islands with storage built in: Provide additional prep area, seating, and useful storage drawers or shelves.

    • Fold-down tables or pull-outs: Offer space for dining as required and vanish if not in use.

    • Hidden storage bench seating: Great for storing extra seats or less often used items.

    4. Light and Bright: An Illusion of Space

    Having good lighting and an open color scheme can really make your small kitchen feel larger:

    • Make the most of natural lighting: Clear windows and add light window treatments.

    • Under-cabinet lighting: Lights countertops for easier tasks.

    Recessed lighting: Offers overall lighting intensity without occupying visual real estate.

    • Light colour palettes: Use lighter-coloured cabinets, walls, and countertops to maximize the reflection of light and give your home an airy ambiance.

    5. Streamlined Design: Less is More

    In cramped quarters, simplicity reigns supreme:

    • Handleless cabinetry: Provides clean and sleek lines with minimal visual clutter.

    • Integrated Appliances: Create an uninterrupted and streamlined look.

    Sleek backsplash: Select a clean and minimalist backsplash.
