"Ogee countertop edges feature a two-part curve that extends out from the natural endpoint of the countertop, requiring more clearance than a traditional flat edge."
"In small kitchens, even that little extra bit of clearance can make a huge difference in how easy it is to maneuver around a kitchen island or fit in all of the appliances."
"The swooping, prominent design of this countertop edge can also seem a little too busy for a confined space, especially if other elements of your kitchen's design are similarly ornate."
"Choosing countertops that echo the colors used for your kitchen backsplash, cabinets, flooring, and wall and ceiling paint can draw the eyes up and around the room."
To make a small kitchen feel more spacious, it is essential to choose design elements carefully. Ogee countertop edges, while trendy, can take up more space and create a busy look that overwhelms a confined area. Instead, opting for low-profile, simple countertop styles in light colors can enhance brightness and airiness. Coordinating countertop colors with other kitchen elements can create a cohesive look that draws the eye around the room, making the space appear larger.
