Making the Most of Awkwardly Shaped Kitchens: Smart Solutions from Krystal Kitchens

By Krystal Kitchens, Basingstoke, Hampshire

Not every home comes with a picture-perfect kitchen layout. Maybe yours has tight corners, sloping  ceilings, or strange nooks and angles that make planning feel impossible. But don’t worry— awkwardly shaped kitchens are more common than you think, and with the right design expertise,  they can become some of the most functional and beautiful spaces in your home. 

At Krystal Kitchens in Basingstoke, Hampshire, we specialise in turning tricky kitchen layouts  into tailor-made masterpieces. Our experienced kitchen designers are on hand to create clever,  practical solutions that maximise every inch—for free

Here’s how we help homeowners overcome awkward kitchen shapes and unlock their kitchen’s true  potential. 

 

  1. Embrace the Shape – Don’t Fight It

    Trying to force a standard kitchen layout into a non-standard space often leads to frustration and  wasted potential. At Krystal Kitchens, we design around the space you have, not the one you wish  you had. Whether it’s an L-shaped room, a narrow galley, or a kitchen under the stairs, we’ll work  with the layout to create a custom design that feels effortless. 

  1. Use Every Inch Wisely

    Awkward angles often mean lost space—but not with the right design. With our Nolte Kitchens range, you can take advantage of: 
  • Corner units with pull-out solutions 
  • Slimline cupboards for tight spots 
  • Integrated appliances that maximise space 
  • Vertical storage that makes use of every wall

    Smart design turns “dead space” into functional storage and sleek style. 


  1. Lighten and Brighten

    Irregular layouts can feel dark or cramped—but clever lighting and colour choices can completely  transform the space. Our design team can help you choose:
  • Light-reflecting surfaces like high-gloss or glass 
  • Neutral or pale colour palettes to open up the room 
  • Strategic LED lighting to brighten corners and alcoves

    We’ll guide you in selecting the right finishes to create a spacious, inviting atmosphere. 


  1. Customise with Nolte Kitchens

    As proud partners of Nolte Kitchens, we offer German-engineered, made-to-measure solutions that are ideal for unconventional spaces. Nolte’s precision design and modular flexibility allow us to  adapt cabinetry and features to fit even the most awkward kitchens without compromising on style  or function.
