Kitchen Under Stairs Design For Your Home

If you are planning your home and have limited space, a smart strategy would be to expand the unused space and accommodate a space-saving kitchen under the stairs. Designing a small, functional kitchen can require a lot of design ingenuity. Fitting the kitchen into the dead space under your stairs is no exception! Trying to fit the kitchen under the stairs adds a whole new level of complexity to the design scheme when designing its functions. You need to decide what will fit under the lowest part of the stair step and which part of the kitchen needs the coveted space with the most headroom.

Depending on the space available, the kitchen can be designed as a linear single wall of cabinets into which all appliances fit. If there is more space, an island can be added across, even a rolling island if your kitchen is more compact and needs to be moved when not in use to make room. Accommodating everything can be a huge undertaking. That’s why we’ve put together numerous examples of how you can implement your design depending on the floor plan of your home. Here is an overview of kitchens that maximize space under the stairs.
