Hey everyone,

I've got a real space problem to solve in my new apartment. Since the living space is split across three rooms, some of them are kinda long and narrow – like my kitchen. With the whole kitchen setup on one long side, there's not a ton of space left. The other long side is totally empty. But I really need to put in some storage (like for food/canned goods, cleaning stuff, maybe even smaller kitchen tools).

If I put up regular cabinets against the wall, it's gonna get super tight in the middle where you gotta move around. The max depth for the cabinets should probably be around 34cm, so all the doors (dishwasher!) can actually open properly. If you use the full 34cm, it's already gonna feel cramped and claustrophobic in the middle. :D

I was thinking more like cabinets that aren't much deeper than 20 to 25cm. Maybe the height should be maxed out at hip level or a little higher, so it doesn't look so cluttered and claustrophobic up top, and you don't feel so restricted at chest/shoulder height. But they should be closed cabinets – no open shelves – so everything doesn't get dusty and look messy. For that, I'm willing to really use the length of the wall and put those cabinets side by side up to 190cm.

Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding the right products. All the cabinets that fit (like various Ikea product lines) are way deeper than 25cm). Everything that isn't that deep is open shelving.

Does anyone know of any suitable products, or do you have other ideas on how to solve this space problem and make the most of the limited space?

Thanks!

ADDITION: Just to help you visualize it better. So, it's about the piece of wall on the right side, which is left between the door's swing and the niche where the washing machine is hidden behind the window. The distance between the fronts of the kitchen units on the left side to the skirting board on the right side is actually only about 100cm. That's why I want to sacrifice as little of it as possible.
