![brakur_double_stacked_cabinets.png](https://blog.brakur.com/hs-fs/hubfs/brakur_double_stacked_cabinets.png?width=308&name=brakur_double_stacked_cabinets.png)Doubling up on cabinets can be a great way for adding extra storage, creating beautiful displays, and maximizing the space in your kitchen.  When done right it can really add to the style of the kitchen, but it is right for your family and lifestyle? Will it help or hinder the function of your kitchen?

Before adding extra cabinets to your kitchen there are a few things you need to consider.  While more cabinet space is great it doesn’t help if it is not accessible and doesn’t serve a purpose. So before doubling up answer the following questions to help you decide if you should double stack cabinets in your kitchen design.

![brakur_appliance_pantry.png](https://blog.brakur.com/hs-fs/hubfs/brakur_appliance_pantry.png?width=320&name=brakur_appliance_pantry.png)Life used to be a simple when it came to kitchen appliances.  You had your standard refrigerator, range, and oven. Today we have a variety of kitchen appliances that are wonderful to use in the kitchen, but take up space and can sometimes create a dilemma as to where to store them.  From blenders, waffle makers, bread machines, stand up mixers, to coffee makers many of these appliances have become a part of our everyday lives. Where can you keep those appliances but still have easy access and not have them clutter your kitchen counters?

![brakur_workflow.png](https://blog.brakur.com/hs-fs/hubfs/brakur_workflow.png?width=320&name=brakur_workflow.png)Each homeowner’s lifestyle is different and the way people do things are different.  You can have a similar kitchen layout but the cabinet interiors and appliance layout and storage may be completely different.  That is a good thing because if you have a good kitchen designer that means they are not only designing a beautiful kitchen space but customizing the organization and work zones of your kitchen to fit the lifestyle and needs of your family. It will save a lot of headaches in the future and prevent those common kitchen traffic jams that can happen.

So what kitchen trends are staying popular and not going out of style?

A recent Houzz study found that homeowners are more concerned with the color of their cabinets, storage and appliances. They are not so concerned with technology beyond having an Ipad and flat screen television in the kitchen. Most homeowners want a pull out trashcan, recycling bins, more storage and new appliances and kitchen cabinets.
