5. Embrace boxed-in uppers. Like the look of open upper shelves but don’t want to lose any storage space? Consider using open shelves like these that sit between cabinets, giving you the easy-reach functionality of open storage without committing to a full wall.This setup will look a bit more clean than a fully open shelf, and everyday items like glassware will still be easy to grab.

You may think that using a dark color in a small kitchen is a total no-no, but contrasting light and dark can create optical effects that actually make a kitchen look larger.Using a bit of dark gray on a back wall behind surrounding white cabinets, like in this example, causes the back wall to visually recede, which actually helps make the wall look a little farther away.
