We've spent the last week trolling for good-looking kitchens in Berlin with storage ideas to steal; here are our findings
1. Think Modular
In Europe, it's not uncommon to rent a flat with no kitchen; tenants often buy their own modular components and take them with them when they move.
Above: German kitchen brand Naber offers a furniture system designed by Bureau Kilian Schindler based on five modules: work surfaces with integrated range, sink, butcher block, storage rack, and technology tower. Ideal for apartment dwellers who can take the system with them when they move.

Keep Cooking Utensils Within Reach

2. Use Wooden Crates as Storage
Above: Spotted in several Berlin kitchens: wood crates as storage. For something similar, consider the American-Made Poplar Wood Crates from Kaufmann Mercantile; available in three sizes (prices start at $29).

3. Consider Built-Ins for Seating

4. Think Outside the Box
