Designing around corners starts with identifying whether your layout creates a blind corner or an open diagonal corner, then choosing the appropriate storage solution, either a lazy Susan, blind corner pull-out, or diagonal cabinet, before finalizing the rest of the cabinet run. Planning corners first prevents awkward spacing issues elsewhere in the layout.

Corners are typically the most complex part of a kitchen layout to plan correctly, which is why designers usually address them before laying out the rest of the cabinet run. In an L-shaped Louisville kitchen throughout neighborhoods like Fairdale, the corner configuration determines how much usable width remains on each adjoining wall.
Blind corners, where one cabinet run extends past the corner and hides storage behind an adjacent door, require careful planning to ensure a pull-out mechanism will actually fit and function once installed. Southern Indiana and Central Kentucky homeowners working through this planning stage benefit from having a designer measure the exact corner dimensions before ordering cabinets.
Once the corner solution is selected, the remaining cabinet runs can be planned around it, using filler strips where needed to maintain proper clearance for doors and drawers to open without interference. View our kitchen cabinet options at Express Cabinet Store.
What Most People Get Wrong
Homeowners sometimes plan their full cabinet layout before addressing the corner, then discover the corner solution they want does not fit within the space left over, forcing a redesign late in the process.
From Our Experience
We always start corner planning early in the design process with Louisville customers, since it shapes how the rest of the kitchen layout comes together. Email ecsoflouisville@gmail.com, visit our Louisville cabinet showroom, or call (502) 690-9813. We are here Monday through Friday, 9AM to 4PM.
