The kitchen is the heart of the home, the central operating hub for your entire family. On top of that, it often does double duty as an office, classroom, dining room, and so much more.
With all of the hustle and bustle, the kitchen quickly turns into a dumping ground for tons of random stuff. In fact, the entire space can turn into a cluttered mess and major source of stress before you even realize it.

Height Standards for Upper Kitchen Cabinets
The upper wall cabinets in kitchens are installed so the bottom edge of the cabinet is 54 inches above the floor. The reason for this is that 18 inches of clearance between base cabinets and uppers are regarded as the optimal working space, and with base cabinets generally 36 inches high (with countertop included) and 24 inches deep, upper cabinets beginning at 54 inches provides the desired 18-inch clearance.
