Most often kitchens have a lot of underutilised space that can be exploited. If you are managing your kitchen, you may not identify these since you don't need to. For example, the space above the kitchen sink is most often left unused. Instead, you can have an overhead sink rack that provides additional space for you to store your kitchen essentials. Similarly, the walls in your kitchen can be used to hang things. The kitchen can have a stick-on rack that doubles up as a storage space. So be smart and creative about how you use the space in the kitchen.
