Begin with what you own.
A useful inventory
List the appliances, pans and food storage you use most often. Note what is currently awkward to reach and where it would work better in the daily routine.
Decide what belongs together
A breakfast station, preparation area and cleaning supplies each benefit from a deliberate place. Grouping by use is often clearer than planning from cabinet widths alone.
Keep future use in view
Think about how the room may be used later, while avoiding storage that solves a hypothetical problem at the expense of everyday space.
