Small Kitchens: Making Every Inch Count

I agree whole heartedly with the other reviewer. This book is an excellent source of practical advise for planning a great small kitchen that won't require spending exorbitant amounts of money. The kitchens shown are all practical, efficient and wonderful to study. Although the book was published 20 years ago it was interesting to see how applicable and contemporary almost all of the suggestions still are. I collect interior design and decorating books/magazines that show you how to make small spaces with small budgets fabulous, and this is the best one on kitchens I own.

This book spells out EXACTLY how to design a kitchen that works for you, without spending the equivalent of a year's tuition at an Ivy League college. Packed with incredibly useful information and superb illustration, the unswerving focus on creating the most efficient kitchen possible is the perfect antidote to the excesses of current kitchen design trends. Using Murrell's insights and ideas anyone can get a better kitchen for free, just by rearranging their working centers according to the ideas and insights Murrell details. We are overjoyed by the kitchen we created IKEA cabinets and some desparately needed new appliances. This book should be a classic - if you have a small kitchen and a small budget, it will give you both hope and help!
