If you want a hidden door, you can do a type of frame and panel wainscot on the wall with the layout lines set to match the size, or a multiple of the size, of your intended cabinet door(s). I'll use Soss hinges, which are hidden inside the edges of the door and frame. Then invisible touch hinges to operate. Press the door, it pops open. Push to close and it latches. Hinges and latches are all unseen. The outlines of the doors can be hidden by the lines and overlaps of the trim within the design of the wainscot. The design can be basic or fancy. You can get the same effect with the options mentioned; the wall decals, etc, but on a fully flat wall you'll see the outline of the doors. Best, Mongo

"My cabinets are filled with Tupperware,pots and pans mostly." Do you need all the Tupperware containers? I used to have a large amount, but when I remodeled I took to heart the recommendation here to scrutinize what you have and get rid of duplicates, rarely used items, etc. For example: I realized all the large plastic containers are only used at Christmas when I go into a cookie baking frenzy. I purged them and got down to only a few - and I store them in the basement b/w Christmas seasons. I realized that I never use all the Tupperware containers at one time, so I monitored my use for a couple of months and got rid of almost half! I also got rid of all those containers that I had lost the top for or that were the flimsy plastic ones I had accumulated over the years (e.g., Ziploc or Glad reusable) . I now store all my containers in one 33"W drawer + 1/2 of a 31"W drawer. (A few years ago, I replaced the vast majority of my plastic containers with glass containers so they can go directly into the MW - especially useful at work!) . Do you need all the post & pans that you have? Do you have multiples of pots/pans the same size? Do you have old ones that you just can't bring yourself to get rid of, etc.? Get rid of them! . I donated a lot of items to family and friends. I also saved some things that I knew my kids would need when they got their own place - I stored them in the basement in boxes.

Many of us continue to buy and/or use products that we probably don't really have any real use for and would probably be just as satisfied if we did not buy them. Still, we buy them with the notion that they are useful, or that they add something essential. But, do they really? I firmly believe that most of the things that the American public buys in regards to items such as "beauty" supplies, household cleaners, and laundry products are not only not really useful, but carry a large negative footprint in our lives, our personal resources, and our environment. All I am saying is that we owe it to ourselves and to our environment to think twice and again as to the real usefulness or need for so many of the things that we buy now days. So much of it is just that we have been sold the notion that these things are a necessary part of life. The major portion of what is on the shelves at the grocery stores, Walmart, and CVS are things that have not existed for...well, never before. Humanity has gotten along quite nicely without them. And, I would argue that the cumulative impact is negative and quality of life has not been enhanced by most of these things. I am in mid sixties and I look around at what people are buying and the it really occurs to me that I have lived this far, quite nicely, without most of that. I was in line at Costco the other day and the number of people around as I waited in line who had enough large packages of bottled water to build a wall was amazing! You would think that we had no potable water in our taps! That is just one example of senseless consuming. Don't they know that the "purified water" they are buying in those plastic bubbles is nothing more than tap water? Americans are trained to consume just about everything in mass quantities. Then, we have storage problems. For the record, I was not at Costco to purchase packages of paper towels that are as large as sofas. The pennies of savings are not worth the hassle of storing all of that stuff. And, most of it is not essential, nor is it really useful. Most of that perceived need is capitalist propaganda and social brain washing. It robs us of our money/resources and it reduces us to mindless consumers. Not buying so much stuff quickly addresses most storage issues. Once, we have decided which of those products really serves a need or a purpose in our life, we can eliminate buying or storing those that don't. First, there needs to be an honest answer as to it's real value, to us. Then, we need to give ourselves permission to step out of that mindset and NOT buy it. And, yes, this does apply to me, too.

IMO a silly place for dishes and those shelves need to planned well in advance so proper suppot can be built. IMO open shelves in a kitchen collect dust. grease and require cleaning often and honsetly I would do actual cabinets with frosted glass doors . You laso need to figure out if 12” depth is enought either way for your plates.
