If you have a small kitchen which, no matter what you do, never quite feels as modern and sleek as you'd like it to, this is the perfect article for you.

We've found a petite yet gorgeous kitchen that looks every inch a contemporary dream, analysed it to discover its secrets and will now share them with you. The kitchen planner behind this project must have been ecstatic with the finished product as the brief no doubt included that it had to look fresh and modern, which it does in spades! 

This will give you all the motivation you need to get to grips with your own small kitchen plans, so let's get to it…

1. Combine two strong, contrasting colours

Throughout your cupboard doors and drawer fronts.

2. Include as much storage as you possibly can

This means building up to the ceiling if you have to.

3. Always choose sleek, comfortable handles

Metal handles look far more contemporary than wooden ones and are often ergonomic.

4. Include task lighting as well as a main light fixture

Under your cabinets is a prime position.

5. Floor lighting will really modernise the look

And be a real talking point!

6. An electric cooke (with ceramic integrated hob) will look futuristic

And maintain a sleek profile.

7. Built-in appliances are far more modern than freestanding versions

And can often be colour-matched to your cupboards.

8. Make your extractor a work of art

It's more than necessary, it's a major part of your installation and some of them are fantastic!

9. Integrating your laundry room and kitchen

Will give a modern, open feel and distribute functionality in a sensible way.

10. Don't cheap out on your choice of tap!

Go for something striking and modern, like an adjustable one that can rinse your salad.

11. Expensive ceramic floor tiles will never date or look old-fashioned

And some underfloor heating would be the perfect finishing touch.

12. Maintain a good flow of natural light

By keeping any doors and windows dressing-free. The more light there is, the fresher the atmosphere and the more modern the feel.
