The different types of kitchen shelving:

Custom-made kitchen shelving can be used in many ways and designed with many different features. Popular options include made-to-measure kitchen shelving units that are erected to stand freely against a wall. Bespoke wine shelves also provide optimal storage to showcase a fine collection and personlized hanging wall shelves can be designed in combination with other kitchen furniture to create an overal visual motif to impress your guests and visitors. 

Fitted and built-in shelving:

Made-to-measure built-in shelves are a practical solution for the kitchen because they can be custom-designed to fit perfectly into any given space. Sloping ceilings, corners, windows and existing kitchen furniture appliances do not represent an obstacle but can be integrated into the visual cofiguration of a individual fitted kitchen shelving system. The compartents of each fitted kitchen shelving unit can be planned with with either open fronts and a rear wall panel or with drawers or doors depending on your storage requirements. A varied design with compartments and drawers allows for easier sorting of crockery that is visible and kitchen utensils that can be hidden and stowed away.

Wine racks:

The wine rack is a decorative storage rack for wine bottles and looks equally at home in your kitchen room as it does in the living room or basement. Made to your specific spatial requirements, the compartments can be designed with rounded shelves for the bottles, and combines the classic and the modern in a elegant standing design feature. There is a trend towards wine racks with diamond-shaped compartments in which several bottles can be store vertically according to vintage and region. A personalised wine rack represents a neat, tidy storage solution, whilst also guaranting high stability and safety.

Hanging shelves:

In the modern kitchen, a custom hanging shelf represents both a decorative and practical storage item and is characterized by its space-saving qualities. Installed directly on the wall, the furniture piece opens on one side and can house several compartments that provide a wealth of storage space. A cookware set with pots and pans can be arranged underneath using additional hooks. Spatulas, ladles, whisks and other kitchen utensils can also be hung up here. The combination of individual hanging shelves with a spice rack also provides functionality to your kitchen layout. 

The best ideas for the kitchen shelf:

Cooking can be extremely rewarding, particularly in a well-planned and visually attractive kitchen. An open plan kitchen shelf can provide decoration and functionality in equal measures. Planning kitchen shelving that is open in design will ensure that your crockery and cooking utensils are organised but always within reach. Plates, glasses, cups and bowls look just as attractive in their designated space, as kitchen gadgets, bottles, cookbooks, herb pots, spice jars, as well as other ingredients and groceries. With everything at your fingertips, you will feel the surge of creativity that will enable you to cook up a storm!
