53 Mind-blowing kitchen pantry design ideas
The kitchen is the heart of the home, which should be functional, well organized and look fabulous all at the same time and your kitchen pantry is no exception! We have presented several other articles in the past about inspiring kitchen ideas, such as Bright and colorful kitchen design inspirations, Gorgeous and inspirational kitchens, and Vintage chic kitchens from Marchi Cucine, and Extremely creative small kitchen design ideas.
What everyone needs in a kitchen is storage, preferably a well-stocked pantry that is well organized so when you are cooking, you can easily find what you are looking for. What can be stored in a pantry is up to you, canned goods, baking supplies, cookbooks, wines, jams, noodles, baskets of non-perishable items, glass containers of dry goods, spices, whatever your heart desires. You can even make the pantry a walk-in and have it be multi-functional, with a washing machine, iron, and ironing board or even have a desk workspace.
Tell Us: Which one of these kitchen pantry ideas most inspired you and why in the Comments below!
There are several different approaches to creating the perfect pantry design to fit your needs. You may want your pantry to be a separate room, or you may want it to be a walk-in where you can add doors to make it look like it is a built-in cabinet to create uniformity in your kitchen, or you can simply add a curtain to separate the space. The pantry can also be a large cabinet with everything labeled inside for organization.
Whatever design decisions you chose to make, be sure to make a checklist of what you need a pantry for before you start building one to ensure that you have one that will work for you. Below you will find tips to create a pantry that you will love and that makes your life easier.
If it’s pretty, show it off. Pantries are not typically thought of as really beautiful spaces, but why not create one that you’re willing to show off? Simple white shelving, pendant light and a set of pocket doors with inset glass makes this pantry a showcase.
Group your food storage. Aside from the efficiency of putting groceries away, placing all food storage in the same region of the kitchen also makes life easier when cooking. Just be sure to have some counter space in that area as a landing spot when putting groceries away or during food prep.
Special hardware accessories are great for the full utilization of space. This seemingly complicated storage system provides one simple function: use nearly every square inch of this space for storage. Racks on the doors are perfect for spice containers. The other shelves hold larger items. By using this type of system, you can create a deep pantry and still get to items in the very back without having to crawl into your cupboards.
Provide easy access. You don’t want to lose things in the back of your pantry, so create an opening to your pantry that allows you to see the entire pantry at the same time.
Here is another great example of how to design a very accessible pantry. Creating two sets of double doors that match the cabinetry makes for a nice-sized pantry. By using cabinet doors on the outside, this pantry feels right at home in this contemporary kitchen.
For a walk-in pantry, look for a way to incorporate your pantry into the existing cabinetry. There is a huge number of pantries out there that are small rooms within a room. If you have one like that, take this room out and incorporate the pantry into the cabinetry layout. This photo shows a completely different take on that idea, leaving the walk-in part intact and disguising the pantry door as part of the cabinetry.
Take the idea of “pantry” to a new level. Less pantry, more wow! There is something so romantic about a small room completely outfitted with all you’d need to bake a cake or can the year’s yield of cucumbers.
Do you have an unused closet or small room by your kitchen that might serve this kind of purpose? It could change the way you view your kitchen completely.
Use Creative Storage Solutions. Some kitchens just don’t have space for a large pantry. If yours is one of those, consider using a wireframe shelving system like you see above that you can find at the Container Store or home hardware store, allowing you to be organized and see what’s in your pantry. This can also be done on a wall in the laundry room if there is no accessible space in your kitchen.
Look for under-utilized space. Often the space at the end of a cabinetry run is difficult to fill with functional storage. In the past several years, we’ve been seeing large pull-out pantries used in locations like this. It’s a perfect use of this space. In this kitchen, the pull-out is used to store spices and baking supplies next to the cooking area.

interior design, renovation ideas
Such an inconspicuous, at first glance, room as a pantry is a compact storage for apartment residents.
It is here that you can rationally place a variety of household trifles, tools, tools and cleaning products, equip a dressing room, a library or a grocery compartment. Unlike private houses, where storage places are located in attics and basements, apartments often do not have sufficient footage. In this article, we will look at the best ideas for arranging a pantry in various rooms, as well as conduct a photo tour of successful designs. nine0005
Where to place the pantry: planning ideas
Finding a suitable place to store various household utensils and things in small apartments is quite difficult. However, pantry organization is the best way to hide and keep infrequently used items in order. If you take a good look around and apply some imagination, then even in a small Khrushchev you can carve out a couple of square meters.
Nisha
The presence of a niche in the living room greatly simplifies the solution of the issue of equipping the pantry. Such recesses in the walls can often be found in old buildings - they are located in hallways or living rooms, have different squares, but in any case they will successfully serve to create a storage facility.
Depending on the shape of the mini-room, you can place U-shaped or L-shaped shelves in it, install a hanger bar, or place household appliances. A tiny niche will be a good place to place a washing machine or refrigerator, and a large space can be arranged as a dressing room. nine0005
Corridor dead end
If there are no niches in the apartment, do not despair - the pantry can be equipped using the empty space. Such an opportunity is, for example, the owners of long corridors ending in a dead end. In this case, it is enough to install a plasterboard partition or simply sliding compartment doors, which will limit the pantry space. Inside, as well as in a niche, the space is arranged depending on the purpose.
Balcony end
An equally popular place to create a storage system is the end of a balcony. Here, too, often the owners of small apartments equip pantries. However, it is necessary to take into account the specific microclimate, which even on a glazed balcony is very different - this is both high humidity and sharper temperature changes.
It follows from this that the pantry, equipped on the balcony, should not be used to store food or clothes - it is best to place household items here. nine0005
In the kitchen
It is convenient for any housewife to have a food storage system directly in the kitchen, where you can place various preserves, vegetables, cereals and other products. At the same time, it is not necessary to allocate a large area - the storage room can be organized along one of the walls and have a depth of no more than 20 cm. To save space, you can leave the storage open or install a sliding door structure. In such a pantry, in addition to food, there is a place to store rarely used kitchen utensils. nine0005
In the bathroom
In the bathroom, you can also equip a small niche-pantry, where hygienic, cosmetic, washing accessories will be stored in an orderly manner. For this, the space of an empty corner is quite suitable, which is protected by partitions made of moisture-resistant drywall and a curtain.
Sometimes they equip a small laundry room here, installing a washing machine, or they have an ironing board.
Types of storerooms depending on the purpose
Before embarking on the arrangement of the pantry, it is necessary to determine exactly what will be stored in it, since the interior decoration and equipment depend on this. Depending on the purpose, the following main types of closets can be distinguished:
- Closets for clothes. Such storage is also called a dressing room and is placed in hallways, bedrooms, and children's rooms. To store different types of clothes, the pantry is equipped with shelves, drawers, racks or shoe boxes, crossbars with hangers. If the room is quite spacious, you can install a wall mirror and a small pouffe for easy dressing. nine0005
- Household pantries. As a rule, such pantries do not require a large area, so it is easy for them to find a place in a small space. Here, on the shelves, various cleaning products, cleaning supplies or tools are stored.
In the utility room, it is important to maintain order, laying out supplies in their designated places, otherwise it will become non-functional.
- Storerooms for household appliances. Often, owners of small apartments have to puzzle over where to find a place for a washing machine, vacuum cleaner and other large equipment. The problem can be solved by a niche equipped with a pantry, for example, in the corridor or kitchen. To equip a mini-laundry, you must first take care of the electrical wiring and the water supply and drainage system, and for other accessories it is enough to equip capacious cells. nine0005
- Food stores. Such pantries are located mainly in the kitchens. Here it is important to arrange everything in such a way that the space between the products is clearly demarcated. It is not recommended to store products with a pungent odor (onions, garlic) next to cereals or herbs, as the latter will be saturated with an undesirable aroma. It is best to equip a separate container for each type of product (you can choose containers of different colors).
- Home library. Books, magazines, photographs, memorable newspaper clippings also need special storage conditions in order to preserve their original freshness for as long as possible. In the pantry-library, it is important to take care of high-quality ventilation and lighting. If the room is quite spacious, you can install an armchair or a small sofa, thus equipping a small reading room where you can have a good time reading your favorite novel or viewing a family photo album. nine0005
In addition to the types of pantries discussed above, there are also combined storage systems where racks side by side with clothes, kitchen utensils and other household items. However, as practice shows, this is not the most convenient organization of storage, since it is often difficult to find the necessary thing, and there is a possibility of mixing different smells.
Storage room design in apartment
Despite the fact that the pantry is a room, the interior of which is in most cases closed from prying eyes, its interior decoration plays an important role.
First of all, this concerns the layout, which should allow you to accommodate as many things as possible. It is important to choose the right materials for finishing and arranging shelving. And do not forget that order should reign in the pantry - only then it will be a full-fledged storage system, where every detail has its place. nine0005
Planning and furniture
When organizing a pantry, first of all, it is necessary to decide on the placement of shelving. Shelves can be arranged linearly (along one wall), L-shaped (in narrow long rooms) or U-shaped (in spacious ones). Next, you need to carefully take measurements and create a drawing, where all the necessary design details will be indicated.
Pantry furniture is made from any material - it can be shelves and drawers made of natural wood, but this design is rarely used due to the high cost of raw materials. For storage, furniture made of chipboard or MDF is quite suitable. Also a good option would be metal structures, grids, which are placed in food niches.
Shelves and pantry drawers can also be made of plastic, but this material is not very durable and can only withstand small loads. nine0005
Items on the pantry shelves are arranged in such a way that the most needed items are at an average height. Here, in addition to shelving, you can equip various drawer designs for various little things. The upper shelves store items that are rarely used, or clothes that are not relevant in this season, and the lower ones, as a rule, are reserved for shoes.
Pantry decoration
When choosing materials for the design of wall, floor and ceiling coverings, you should not opt for expensive options. The walls can simply be painted with silicone paint (not exposed to fungus and mold), wallpapered or decorated with wall panels. The floor is decorated with linoleum, laminate or tiles, and the ceiling is whitewashed, painted or equipped with plasterboard with a built-in lighting system. nine0005
Lighting
For a small room, where there is no source of daylight, it is necessary to provide a bright lighting system.
Often spotlights or spots cope with this role, although a light chandelier can be installed in a spacious room. LED strips located along the racks help to effectively illuminate the depths of the storage.
Door
The choice of the door to the pantry is one of the important points, as it acts as the facade of the store. In the hallways, sliding compartment doors with mirrored surfaces are often equipped, although the option of decorating the doors with 3D paintings with a perspective is no less interesting. Also convenient is the option of accordion-folding doors - they significantly save free space. nine0005
When installing hinged doors, you can mask the canvas with the same finishing material as the facade of the hallway - then the pantry will not attract attention at all. Although hinged structures will require space for free opening, their inner side will also serve to attach storage. On the doors you can place small racks or fabric envelopes for tools and other small things.

1. Under the stairs
At first glance, it looks like an ordinary pantry is hiding behind the neat light green facades. But if you look closely, it becomes clear that the design of the pantry in the apartment in the photo masks the space under the stairs. nine0005

4. Slender Row
In this British kitchen from My Fathers Heart Ltd, cabinets take up an entire wall behind sober red fronts; one of them, a little deeper, plays the role of a pantry, which does not visually stand out in the interior.

5. Spectacular back wall
The most interesting thing about this large cabinet is inside - and we are not even talking about food supplies, but about the back wall made of brick. nine0005

6. Don't forget the light
Considering the design of the pantry in the apartment in the photo, pay attention not only to the textured wallpaper on the back wall of the pantry, but also to the elegant Flos Fucsia lamp.

7. Pantry-cylinder
The cylindrical pantry in the London project Johnny Gray Studios turns a utility closet into an unusual interior object. It takes up very little space, but can meet the needs of a large family: the interior and stainless steel doors are equipped with spacious shelves. nine0005

8. Great Opportunity
This Allison Landers kitchen pantry is about 25 centimeters deep, but the functional doors nearly double the usable storage space.

9. Framed
The pantry occupies a separate utility room in this project, the entrance to which is behind glass doors framed by open shelves. nine0005

Bright shelves are a great backdrop for storing light-colored dishes, and in order not to waste space, the pantry was extended to the ceiling: a ladder will help to reach the upper shelves.

73. Asymmetric doors

Storage systems do not have to be arranged linearly or allocate an entire room for storage: in this project, it is more like a decorative pylon, and laconic facades do not draw attention to the drawers.

Not only the front but also the side “works” for this cabinet: shallow shelves are placed on it behind a conventional hinged door.
