I want to install taller upper cabinets - but what about the slope?

13 years ago

To create more food storage, I want to install taller upper-cabinets to my small kitchen. However, the right side of the wall slopes down so I would not be able to install taller cabinets in the rightmost position. How can I do this upgrade without the cabinets looking wonky?

One trick you can use is do the taller uppers all the way on the straight part of the wall and then bridge the difference withe open shelving. The horizontal lines of the shelves against the angle of the wall will look cool and intentional. Hope this helps Let me know if you need more ideas.
