This space could also be a place of your mom’s art exhibition, let her play around with the colour pallets and let them aesthetically rule the kitchen. To add a bit of glam and flavour to your boring dull minimalistic kitchen, you can do floating cabinetry that has open shelves and cabinets to exhibit your mom’s china pot collections. For a more maximalist approach you can go also wild with the colours to spruce up your basic cabinet designs with striking midnight blue or emerald green hues.

If you have extra space on your kitchen floor space, a kitchen island would be apt for this layout, and if you customize it with cabinetry there’ll be more space to add more pans. This design is a match made in heaven for working moms.  It is also a good place for the kids and mothers to bond. Not only that, the island can also be revamped as a dining table or breakfast bar for meal preparation, cooking, and even socialising.

Tired of rushing back from work, and need to prepare dinner with kids to monitor? Kitchen islands is all you need. Kitchen islands work best for kids to do their homework while watching their mom cook and for mother’s to watch over them while preparing their meals.

If you don’t want an island in your kitchen but still need more work and storage space, consider a peninsula kitchen. These layout offers mothers additional workplace and eases their maneuverability to move around while also being large enough to dine at. The layout resembles an unfinished square, giving the space perimeters while isolating it from a wider communal area.
