Loving this small eat-in kitchen with its checkered black and white floor, beadboard walls, open shelving, room for a table and chairs, and an oh-so-necessary kitchen chalkboard.
Very cute. Very inviting. Makes you realize how much all can happen in a really small space!
In the case of an eat-in kitchen, shelves, and cabinetry are integrated for bonus storage. Consider an open-base kitchen island for a lighter appearance and visual access to kitchen supplies and gadgets.
Could a small kitchen like this work for you?
Happy Wednesday!

This kitchen is very cute, but isn’t even CLOSE to being small!! Visit my 300SQ ft Studio in NYC’s Hell’s Kitchen, and then we’ll talk.
That is a totally cute kitchen… but I’ve seen tinker. I love the white on white and the checkerboard floor. AND it is super light and bright – ALWAYS a plus!
Wow, I love this space, although you have to make extra effort to have pretty food pantry containers and orderly stacking (yikes for me!).
I love how airy it feels! Great choice!
I love it! I love the black and white and all the light! Sure doesn’t seem small.
very charming : ) great usage of white as it makes the room look much larger, as opposed to a darker color. and yes, this could totally work for me!

Love it! I’m in a historical cottage and this would look great (instead of the faux contemporary stuff that’s in there now.)
This is just the kind of kitchen I would love to have- small, cozy and white with small splashes of color. Perfect!
And of course – it’s Scandinavian! This is like walking in to my neighbours kitchen. A completely normal kitchen in a normal apartment. I love it in the sense that it could be perfect for 2 people living together. When kids come in the picture, though.. it would be a little too small.
These pictures actually really represents the essential differences in Swedish/Scandinavian design versus American design. I would love your regular white kitchen with steel appliances and white subway tiles.. NOT the type of kitchen you would find here in Scandinavia, but I loooove those!
Interesting to see that it works the other way around as well 🙂
It also looks like this space was renovated without spending a ton of money, which is great to see. Kitchens seem to need updating too often, so even though they’re a great selling point for a home and you tend to get your money back if the kitchen is relatively new when you sell, it’s still easy to spend too much on a space that needs updating every 6-8 years…keeping it classic like this kitchen helps, as well.
The checkered tiles really works for me! This is such a lovely kitchen.
I love small kitchens, it makes you pare down to the essentials and get creative with what you keep. Although I agree with some others, that I don’t consider this kitchen”small”. My London flat had a kitchen about 1/2 the size of this one and about 1/8 of the cupboard space.
LOVE the black/white floor – makes the whole room!
The open shelves and all of the white definitely open it up! I love it! Ok, and the checkered floor…a win.
two thumbs up 🙂
i love love love plenty of light and a black/white checked floor in the kitchen!!
I love this kitchen! I have been debating an all white kitchen with black and white tile, this has inspired me. Thank you.
Have always longed for that floor (which would match my signature eyeglasses), but have been warned it needs a DAILY washing.
Not in my skill set!
LOL… Love how you think this is small… but it’s all relative. It is adorable. So here is my question, do people with fancy canisters and storage purchase items based on such? I understand many of these are vintage, but does this mean that they decant EVERYTHING they buy? Hmmm… Or perhaps my grocer doesn’t stock things that are pretty enough. I might have to speak with them. I am a sucker for great packaging…
Ha i knew it was swedish when i saw it and then I read the words on the chalk board. Cant miss it.
Love the floor and that kitchen could absolutly work for me.
