I have a small kitchen 8ft x 13ft with 9.5ft ceiling in a home built in 1926. I am looking at white wood cabinets with inset doors/drawers and a farm house sink. I like the idea of the bottom wall cabinets to be 36″ and then top them with 18″ cabinets with glass inserts. Finished with crown molding to match the rest of the house. My question is…Since the space is so small should the cabinets go to all the way to ceiling, or would it make it look like a library?

I don’t feel the added expense is worth it. Plus a farm house would never have cabinets extending that high
Normally for a small kitchen you would put the cabinets up to the ceiling,
but since you have a 9.5 foot ceiling, if you put the cabinets up to the ceiling the bottom of the cabinets would be 6 feet from the floor which would be to high to reach.
You can decorate above the cabinets with vases, baskets, unique wine bottles, pottery…
(best to decorate in groups not straight across)

Go to the ceiling, but have the top shelf of cabinets have their own door. If your lower door is glass, then I would make these a solid white – you gain the storage and have the look on deep crown molding. If you go solid cabinets below then use glass at the top.
This will avoid the library/cabinet cram in look you rightfully want to avoid.
