I have a house in Arizona that will get a kitchen redo this summer. I really like the look of no upper cabinets to open the space. My kitchen is very naroow like this one. We have a laundry room at one end that will become a walk in pantry with a slider door. I think this is a great idea. Do you think wood cabinets would made it look closed in? We currently have solid wood floors. I like the look of white cabinets but am wondering if wood cabinets would make it look smaller.
