The Organized Drawer: A Modern Kitchen Design Road Map in Eliminating Wasted Space

The evolution of Kitchen design has allowed kitchens to become one of the highlighted staples of the home. No longer a hidden utilitarian space, the Kitchen is the heart of social activity, where one can display one's culinary skills and showcase the design and efficiency of the area. With today's modern kitchens, we design with the following necessities:  

  • Maximizing the full range of your kitchen area 

  • Keeping the cooking process in mind for both the master chef and curious newbie

  • Creating a kitchen you and your family can enjoy and love

One of the things to strongly consider when planning a kitchen remodel or renovation is how to maximize the efficiency of your Kitchen. Eliminating wasted space and putting more thought into the layout of your contemporary kitchen drawers is a great way to keep your Kitchen from the inevitable clutter. Having enough cabinetry storage space and counter use is one of the first things we think about- and yet the kitchen cabinets and drawers are essential elements in the ebb and flow needed in the everyday use of the Kitchen. So installing Kitchen drawer organizers that make sense is vital.

When selecting your drawer inserts, keep in mind the current flow of your kitchen design. Is this a space where you do all the cooking? Or are you ready to pass down your secret family recipes to the next generation? Either way, customize it to give yourself convenient access to the most used items in your Kitchen- no need to search high for commonly used kitchenware. Consider your current counter space and what you would most likely be doing in that area; what things would you need readily available for your use? If you're ready to take the next step and design drawer organizers with intention that best fit your needs, start by thinking about the following:

What will likely go in the drawers?

  • Spices

  • Hot Drink Supplies

  • Dishes

  • Snacks or Dry goods

  • Tupperware or Food Packaging

  • Appliances

  • Cookware 

  • Utensils

  • Knives

  • Linens

Now that you know what your drawers are for: Start creating functional and intentional channels. Intentional channels can mean that some spaces need an insert while others do not. And don't let inaccessible space become off-limits; this is great for storing things you don't use often and still want to keep. However, remember to create channels that make sense and keep items from sliding around in your drawer- causing clutter to occur quickly. It is generally best to store like-items together, but you can store items that work best with your cooking process and needs. This is your dream kitchen design. 


But oh no! Customizable organizers for your drawer can be difficult and even daunting. An initial search for customizable kitchen drawers will direct you to various drawer organizer options. However, most of them have default sizes or limited ability to extend to meet your specific drawer specs—leaving you to play the real-life game version of Tetris. Kitchen drawer organizers are one area in which one size does not fit all, yet at first glance, that seems to be the only option.
