Designing a Modern Kitchen with Cabinets

Planning the Kitchen Layout

To build a clean and realistic modern kitchen, start by designating a dedicated room or open-plan corner in your build. Plan an exterior wall with large windows to let in natural light, mimicking the open, airy look of contemporary apartments. Map out your floor plan so you have dedicated runs along the walls for food preparation surfaces and storage.

Placing Cabinets and Lighting

Line your kitchen walls with the mod's wooden cabinets to establish functional counter space and upper storage. You can mix and match finishes, such as using dark wood cabinets along the base to create visual contrast against lighter surrounding walls.

Once the main cabinetry run is in place:

• Install stylish lighting blocks directly above the counters or on the ceiling to keep work areas well-lit without relying on standard vanilla torches.
• Use the mod's decorative props along the countertops to make the kitchen feel inhabited rather than empty.
• If space permits, create a central kitchen island using additional cabinet blocks, leaving at least a two-block walkway on all sides so you can move smoothly through the room.
