plan an efficient design
in any kitchen, careful planning is important, but it's even better when space is limited, such as in the current layout. Usually (but not always), single-wall kitchen including a refrigerator in the kitchen end of the run. It will have a sink next to it, with shelf space on both sides and dishwasher and storage underneath. Ovens and stoves are usually located on the far side of this. Again, there should be a section of shelf space on both sides of the hob / oven to allow you to safely land the food after cooking. Further storage space will be given below.
Or, as long as they do not block the light source, you may have a high unit 'bookending' kitchen. This will usually include an oven at high housing on one side and a fridge-freezer on the other side.

Know your wall unit: mixed with rack
Alternatively, you can break down a wall unit with an extractor fan or open shelves. Open shelves on the wall to the left or right of the kitchen is another option, and will be decorative as well as practical.

know your wall unit: bridged
Depending on the space available, another option is to introduce a run of bridging units along the top of your wall cabinets. It usually has a higher unit on both sides. Apart from the extra storage, this creates a sunken effect for the wall unit through subtle changes in depth. A lower wall unit 350mm in depth, while the unit above is 650mm. The overall feel is framed kitchen look, or effect feature wall.
By this arrangement, it is best to store goods that are less frequently used in the top row of cabinets, and invest in a folding pedestal for access. As illustrated, you can also match your kitchen cabinets and wall colors to look seamlessly into your kitchen and dining or living room.

Max storage
storage is important in any kitchen, big or small, but it was very key to the single-wall kitchen, where there are fewer units than in other layouts.
Ensuring generous closet space is a necessity, but also consider whether there is potential for more storage elsewhere in the kitchen. Designers small cooking space has been cleverly adding additional storage under the seat, as well as packaging deeper with additional wall units above it.
furniture directly outside the kitchen area has also been designed in the same finish to unify the space and create the appearance of a liquid. This approach is becoming increasingly popular for open space, too, where the homeowner wants a chieve feeling of continuity between the kitchen and living room.

Select the appropriate equipment to a small space
Although single-wall kitchen may be small, this does not mean you can not include the equipment you want. Many modern kitchen appliances are specifically designed for small spaces: for example, you can find an integrated compact dishwasher in 45cm 60cm wider than the standard models. The same is true for the compact oven, microwave, steam oven and warming drawer.
In an open setting, also pays to pick your equipment wisely and make sure you go for a less noisy models. This way, if the washer extractor fan or active, you will receive far fewer complaints from people watch TV or read in the next room.

Add an island
When planning the layout of your kitchen, it is worth exploring if you have room to add a kitchen island to the parallel single-wall you. With careful planning, this will improve the layout.
This could also mean a single-wall layout would work for a larger room as, basically, it reconfigures into a galley kitchen with the same functionality. While this depends on space and how you want to use, generally the work surface and the storage of an island introduced a very useful extra.

Mark difference
If a kitchen island will not fit, you might consider adding a table, both for eating and as an extra work surface. In addition to the obvious benefits this brings, the table also can mark the difference between a kitchen and living room, creating a sense that they are two separate spaces.
Another possible way of achieving the same effect is through breakfast bar with stools (great for entertaining guests) or changes in the floor between each region.

On the other hand, the layout is ideal if you want to make the kitchen a single-wall itself the focal point. Maybe you are a contrast to the rest of your room with bold splashes of color in the closet. Or, you may choose to shelf or splashback typical statement.
