Beautiful! I especially love 1 and three :)
Sorry, but I'm going to be picky... several of these kitchens are anything but small. They're all a heck of a lot prettier than my kitchen, though haha
small kitchens?? i don't see any small kitchen there.
1 and 3! 1 and 3! Wow. And yeah, these kitchens are all bigger than MY kitchen.
I'd like to see more windowless galley kitchens on a post titled "Small Kitchens."
I'd like to see some small kitchens in a post title "Small Kitchens"
nice kitchens otherwise
Those yellow tiles are fun. They give a bamboo effect.
Photo #3: having the handle (and of that size) in the middle of a cabinet door is not only ugly, but counter to the physics of needing to pull something on a pivot. Duh.
LOL, I would be so lucky to have a "small" kitchen like any of those! If those are small than mine is microscopic.
@YoNella - What if the cabinet doors didn't pivot? What if the whole thing is on casters?
Hmm...I think I remember seeing kitchen #3 before, and I think they actually are pull outs.
If you look closely, you can't see hinges for those, while you are able to on the doors next to them.
Of course, I would really only consider #3 a truly small kitchen. My kitchen's 90ish sq ft and I don't consider it all that small. Just cozy.
like #2; my problem is to find a "hood" (?) that's not noisy but elliminate odors effectively. is there such?
All of except 2 of these are bigger than my kitchen and I don't even think of my kitchen as small (it's just right...). Seriously, the last pic has a double oven and a million drawers.
I love number 5, very simple, modern with a lovely floor. I like the different cabinets on the top and bottom. Pic 2 reminds me of a tool chest.
Nice color choice; the yellow tiles make it pop!
Some nice stuff here! I especially like #1. Though small, #3 is great to actually cook in... if they would clear off the counter space so actual cooking could go on. Kitchen counter tops are not shelves to be filled with decorations.
Yeah, I agree w/ the majority of those who've already posted: the kitchens pictured above do NOT qualify as small. In the future, if you're gonna put up posts titled "small kitchens" how's about actually using images of SMALL kitchens?!
I live in a studio with much less kitchen space than any of these. I clicked on this link to get ideas for my kitchen... and none of these will work because they are not small kitchens.
I should try #1. I need to lose weight and it is so ugly I would lose my appetite!
"small kitchens?? i don't see any small kitchen there."
Lots of cranky posters today...
....Compared to your typical suburban kitchen, these are small, relatively.
