Hello everyone,
I am planning to design my kitchen using Ikea Metod kitchen units, but I only have a very small space available. My goal is to build the kitchen layout as space-efficiently as possible without losing important features such as enough work surface, storage, and an ergonomic setup. I am wondering which modules are best suited to make the most of the available space, which combinations make sense, and how to create a design that is both flexible and functional. Are there any practical tips or experiences on installing Metod specifically in small kitchens, perhaps with clever corner solutions, tall appliances, or alternative layouts? I look forward to your suggestions and specific advice on how to best plan and realize a small kitchen using Ikea Metod.

Sure, at first I had to get used to the new height, but it definitely saves space below and provides more room to work.That already motivates me, thanks. One more question: How about the lighting? When I build a kitchen tight in a small room, it quickly becomes dark and cramped. Do you have any special solutions with Ikea Metod, such as lighting under wall cabinets or similar, that are particularly space-saving and at the same time provide good light?

Do you already have specific ideas for Ikea Metod, such as lighting under wall cabinets or similar, that are particularly space-saving and provide good illumination?For lighting, LED strips mounted directly under wall cabinets are recommended. They are slim, take up very little space, and provide effective task lighting. Alternatively, there are integrated LED systems within Ikea Metod, which are functional and discreet. Glare-free lighting significantly enhances the sense of space in small kitchens. For switching, I would suggest separate switches or motion sensors for the work surface lighting, allowing you to control the light precisely and save energy.
Additionally, a light or matte white cabinet body can improve light distribution.
