Wall-mounted kitchen storage to give you extra space exactly where you need it

If you’re always looking for just a little extra space in the kitchen, one of these clever wall-hung solutions could be the answer.

Finding a place for everything can be a struggle even in the best thought-out kitchens. Sometimes you wish there was a place to keep your most-used cooking utensils to hand, or just one more shelf in a cupboard so you didn’t have to squeeze everything in. 

Wall-mounted shelving and storage is a great way to give you just a little more space in your kitchen, and depending on your layout, you can place it next to where it’s most needed, such as your hob or prep space. 

Here are some of the best designs that we’ve found.
