The kitchen is one of the most demanding spaces in the home. It is where a lack of storage becomes obvious, where a poorly planned layout undermines organisation and where ill-considered decisions make daily life harder. Whether in a small kitchen or an open-plan space integrated with the dining room, it is essential that every element works together.
Espaço Libris helps organise the space and integrate the kitchen décor with the rest of the home, avoiding makeshift fixes and ensuring practical, durable solutions in keeping with your lifestyle.
"Espaço Libris was fantastic. They recommended several companies to restore the house and, together, we built the solutions step by step. They were a partner not only in the decoration but also in the restoration and construction. Two words sum up my relationship with Espaço Libris: trust and excellence."

Decorating a small kitchen calls for extra attention to the layout, storage and choice of materials. Light colours on walls and units, well-placed lighting and practical bespoke furniture help to make the space feel larger and more convenient for everyday use.
To integrate the kitchen decoration into an open-plan living area, it is important to coordinate materials, colours and lighting. Furniture, finishes and decorative elements should create aesthetic continuity while keeping each area clearly defined and balanced in use.
Some of the most common kitchen design mistakes include poorly proportioned layouts, a lack of storage space, insufficient lighting and materials that are not durable or practical enough. To avoid solutions that are hard to put right, planning should come before any purchasing decision.
The most suitable materials are those that balance durability, ease of maintenance and appearance. Surfaces that resist moisture and heat, easy-to-clean finishes and materials suited to everyday use make all the difference in a functional kitchen.

The ideal kitchen lighting combines natural light, general lighting and task lighting. The interplay between natural and artificial light in the preparation areas should be planned as a whole, so as to create a comfortable and functional space throughout the day.
