Our Most-Liked Kitchen Organization Ideas On Houzz

Houzz has quickly become one of our favorite social media channels. It allows design-build firms like us to post examples of our best work, and homeowners and would-be remodelers to find ideas and inspiration, and conduct research on the top-rated professionals in their area. It's also a great way for us to pay attention to what's trending, and what's resonating with homeowners and our clients. The simple way we monitor this: How many saves our pictures get. The more saves, we figure, the more relevant and useful a photo is to users. Among our most-saved photos are those pertaining to kitchen organization ideas  -- a trend we hypothesize has to do with the fact that most people have a limited amount of cabinet space in their kitchens, and a whole lot of appliances, dishes, and utensils to store there.

If you're currently on a hunt for the best storage ideas for your kitchen, here are some great ones, based on the opinion of our Houzz audience.
