Remodeling a small kitchen can be tricky, but there are smart ways to make it feel more open and spacious. Try using lighter paint colors and open shelving to reduce visual clutter. Mirrors or glass-front cabinets can help reflect light and create a sense of depth. One often overlooked tip is Tile and Grout Cleaning—freshly cleaned grout lines and bright tiles instantly make the space look newer and more expansive. Choosing sleek appliances and minimizing bulky furniture can also free up visual space. Adding under-cabinet lighting can brighten dark corners. Keep things tidy and use multipurpose storage to keep the area open and airy.
