The saying goes that the kitchen is the heart of the home - and as such, it tends to be a hub for the family’s clutter. Mail, keys, magazines, dishes - they all seem to find a home on the bench. Add in your appliances and decor, and your once-spacious kitchen quickly feels cramped and cluttered. Keeping your kitchen clear and organised is an ongoing process, but here are a few little kitchen organisation ideas to incorporate into your routine which will have a big impact on clutter in your space. Keep Your Benchtop Clear This may be easier said than done, but starting out with a clear benchtop makes it a lot easier to keep it that way.

Open plan living is high on many homeowners’ lists of must-haves when they’re building or renovating. Not only does an open space provide plenty of room for entertaining guests (without relegating yourself to the kitchen), but open plan also feels incredibly spacious, more airy and more welcoming. The style does come with its challenges, though, and there are some key things to consider before you launch into a build. Here, we’ll talk through some of the most important tips for designing an open plan home.

Choosing soft furnishings is often left to the last minute; homeowners will scramble to find the right curtains to match their colour palette, or try to upholster seat cushions in barely any time. A better way to do it is to integrate your choices about soft furnishings into your renovation plans from the very beginning. Here are our tips on how to choose soft furnishings for a cohesive look and feel in your kitchen.

You have several clever tricks at your disposal that can make your tiny kitchen feel a whole lot larger, warmer and more welcoming.
