My husband and I often talk (or dream) about remodeling our kitchen. The only problem is, we can’t figure out a layout that would add counter space, cabinets, and make the kitchen more “open” then it is. The husband wants the kitchen to be completely open to the living room.

I did a bit of research and thought that the following pictures of small kitchens would inspire those who are in the same situation we are.

Except, our kitchen isn’t exactly as small as some of these photos. However, it may be just what you’re looking for. What do you think?
