The arrangement of a corner in the kitchen is a major design challenge that requires special solutions. If you want to make full use of the available space and eliminate dead zones, take advantage of the possibilities offered by the installation of corner cabinets. See how to choose furniture and what to pay attention to when setting up the corner of a room.
What is worth knowing about corner cabinets?
In every kitchen, numerous items and accessories are stored that are used with varying intensity. Efficient interior organization requires the use of non-standard solutions - especially if you have limited space. Fortunately, even small and awkward spaces can be arranged in a functional way. On the market, you will find a wide range of corner cabinets in an L-shape and rectangular or square designs that allow for skillful management of awkward spaces.
Corner cabinets - what parameters to consider?
The first aspect to pay attention to when selecting corner cabinets is the dimensions. Undoubtedly, the best solution is custom-made furniture, fully tailored to the users' needs. Systems that facilitate interior organization play a significant role - such as cargo baskets, pull-out corner drawers, or metal rod structures for storing lids and dishes.
Corner setup cabinets - which to choose?
The most popular solution for fitting the corner of a kitchen is cabinets in the shape of a square with shelves or a carousel, allowing maximum use of space. Standard corner furniture has equal sides adjoining the wall, about 90 cm long. Manufacturers offer both corner kitchen cabinets with separately opening doors or connected by hinges. The latter option is much more convenient, as the user gains easy access to the contents of the setup. Depending on your needs, you can equip the cabinet with containers for storing cutlery and small accessories. The "carousel" is suitable for slightly larger utensils and dinnerware components (as small items may fall during spinning).
Space corner and magic corner systems - what makes them unique?
In the case of corner cabinets installed in a square layout, pull-out drawers with a broken front in the form of two perpendicular fronts or doors work perfectly. In the space corner system, you just need to pull one of the handles to extend an irregular drawer. The magic corner refers to corner cabinets, opened from one side, where baskets on runners can be installed. After opening the cabinet, the baskets are pulled out, and their place is taken by the rear ones. This solution facilitates access to items placed in the depth and creates even more storage space.
Spacious corner cabinets - rectangular setup
The rectangular corner cabinet is one of the more commonly chosen pieces of furniture setup, suitable for almost any interior. In this type of setup, the user has access to the contents only on one side of the corner setup. Thanks to a wide opening, the user has free access to the cabinet's interior - it's one of the more practical kitchen solutions. Similarly to square corner cabinets, it's worth investing in pull-out mechanisms with shelves equipped with several conveniences.
