Keep shelves tidy
Be honest with yourself, your household is naturally neat? Or are you the type of person who, during one of the many moments of your busy, prone to discharge the keys and documents at any surface that clear?
If you are more inclined to the latter, you may have to think twice about installing more places where you will be tempted to spread your stuff. If you do a lot of neat, however, and know that everyone in general will put everything in its place, open storage could be perfect for you.

be prepared for additional dust
there's no getting away from it - open storage gathering dust much faster than a closed unit will be. So if you are planning to display some items are more interesting, but little-used you on the shelves, remember that they will need to be wiped down more often.
However, if you plan to stow either using kitchen kit, such as a pan or bowl of cereal, in this way, then the dust will not have a chance to finish.
In the kitchen, there are many on the screen, both high and low, which makes everything easy to grab -. but it may mean more cleaning

Take your height into account
If you are a little shorter than average and will often have to climb stairs to reach the pot of high-ups and pans, then open storage may not be a choice the most practical for you. If the height is on your side, but you will probably find reach up items much easier than bending to rummage around in a low cupboard for that.
high open storage is also very useful if you don 't want small children to get their hands on your kitchen equipment.

consider shelf-low level
Open storage under the kitchen table can be very practical, too. It broke the run of doors and drawers and can bring color and character into your scheme.
Low-level storage works very well for cookbooks, as seen here in this island unit. Remember, however, that this area can be rather tempting to finger toddlers want to know this.

Create a balance
Open storage look very good when it arranged symmetrically. Maybe centered over the sink with both sides of the unit, or mounted along one wall with shelves up or unit on the other side to match.
Crucially, there must be isolated from the rest of the kitchen and it should match the overall style of your scheme.

Get hang
Shelves are not the only choice for open storage in the kitchen. Hooks that held the cup or pot can look very attractive, too, and they made everything very easy to access.
Make sure that what you show is fun to see. You may want to avoid hanging mug slogan, for example, or mismatched battered saucepan. A set of sleek shining copper pans, as seen here, it looks beautiful.

Look at the top of
holders hanging pan Overhead also can be very useful, especially if you want your kitchen to have a feel of professional chefs kitchen. These should ideally be hung directly on the stove, as seen here, or island unit. They probably would not look right if suspended in the air with nothing between the shelves and the floor.

Working worktops you
Deep worktops and surfaces of the island can be used to store and display items of interest and regular use, too. Here, sleek stainless steel toaster and food mixer stand behind the work table of unit-style cabinets, and intelligent pestle and mortar visible in the house is perched on the island.

Show off your crockery
This is a pity to hide the collection of tableware that interest you. A neat little bowl looks pretty stacked on the shelves, and racks of traditional dishes has a relaxed, homely feel and come in very handy, too. Ensure that your plate will fit securely in the rack.
