Size and shape

Not all rooms are in perfect shape. Finished housing often has to be adjusted.

With a square kitchen there are no problems, it’s easy to fantasize, there are many options. The arrangement of furniture here is parallel, l-shaped. If the room is spacious, then in the middle is a dining table or island.

Dividing the square kitchen visually into two triangles, one of them is taken under the working area, the second is equipped with a soft corner and a dining table.

Large kitchen with dining area

A narrow kitchen will require more thoughtfulness. Furniture and appliances are chosen with the smallest parameters. An existing window cannot be cluttered. A narrow room is decorated in bright colors, do not use a lot of decorative details.

A rectangular kitchen is almost as perfect as a square. It is divided into two squares or triangles, beat corners. The non-trivial design of the kitchen will create the correct arrangement of furniture, competent lighting, surface design. Dining table set in any shape: rectangular, round, elongated.

The integration of the kitchen with other rooms is considered a fashionable trend; its design is linked to the overall style of the house. The basis is simplicity without frills, which dictates not the deprivation of amenities, but functionality. Utensils and household appliances are hidden as much as possible, they are worried in advance about acquiring a good hood.

Dark island table and white furniture

The different orientation of the premises is emphasized by a bar counter with chairs, a kitchen island, a cutting table. The border of the zones is complemented by a glass partition.

With the walk-through option, they try to arrange the kitchen furniture so that it does not interfere with movement from the corridor to the dining room or balcony, emphasizing the boundaries of the zones. For each, individual lighting sources are installed, materials that are different in design and texture in the decoration of the floor are used. A cutting table or island is positioned in such a way as to enclose a space, making it more comfortable.

The open kitchen is convenient and practical, its space is visually expanded, you don’t have to spend money on decorating the "extra" walls, the hostess communicates freely with guests and household members while cooking.

Principles of equipment and arrangement

Kitchen equipment with furniture and household appliances occurs after summing up communications. Everything should correspond to the taste of the owners, their schedule, provide for the convenience and safety of family members, including children and animals. It is important to accurately calculate the size of the furniture, taking into account openings, protrusions, corners, the location of the water supply, sewage, and other systems.

The ideal design will arise after answering the questions:

  1. How many people the room is designed for, how many people usually gather at the table.
  2. What, in addition to eating, family members are engaged in the kitchen: watching TV, working on a laptop, preparing lessons.
  3. What household appliances are needed, whether it will be built-in, what dimensions.
  4. What maximum power consumption should be calculated, how many and which lighting devices will be involved.
  5. What is the sequence of the working triangle, how many storage spaces and what are required.
  6. Are the length and width of the working surfaces, docking with household appliances and a sink, the degree of opening of the doors, the convenient location of the drawers calculated correctly.

Do not forget about security:

  1. Drawers are not located in the hob area.
  2. Outlets do not plan near the sink.
  3. The distance between the hob and the sink is at least 0.5 m.

Types of layout

In a properly planned kitchen, the hostess is comfortable and convenient. She does not rush between the sink and stove, saves time. When designing a modern kitchen, three main areas are combined: a place for storing food (refrigerator), a cooking area (cutting surface), a washing place (washing). This leads to the principle that access to any of the vertices of the triangle is unhindered, as well as:

  • the sink is equidistant from the stove and refrigerator;
  • the stove is close to the dining area, but does not accidentally hurt the utensils standing on it;
  • the refrigerator does not break the space, it is installed closer to the corners, when opening the door it does not interfere with free movement.

Corner

Universal option, suitable for any kitchen. Furniture, appliances are placed at adjacent walls. The working area is separate, you can organize a dining area, it is advantageous to arrange built-in appliances. If the room is too narrow or large, such a layout will not work.

Parallel

It is used in the design of spacious rooms, which can be walk-through. A stove with a sink is placed along one wall, and along the opposite - a refrigerator with cabinets. The plus will be the ability to install the necessary equipment, the minus is the limited space, the dining table often does not fit.

U-shaped

This type of layout is applicable in kitchens 10-12 square meters. m. Along each of the three walls place one of the elements of the working triangle. The disadvantage is the lack of through traffic. In small or large rooms with the organization of the dining area there are also difficulties.

Straight

The advantage of this scheme is the ability to use in small spaces. Furniture, household appliances line up along one of the walls. It is advisable to part the stove and refrigerator on opposite sides of the sink. When the length of the working surface is more than 3 m, ergonomic design is reduced.

With the island

With an island layout, it is rational to arrange the hob in the middle. Here they also place a sink if communications are failed. For ease of use, there should be at least 1.2 m of free space around the island. If the island is small, then they provide seating and storage places, the main functional units are arranged according to a linear or angular principle, guided by the configuration of the room.

The areas where cooking and washing take place are located nearby so that the hostess does not have to cross the aisle each time with a hot pot or wet vegetables.

Window work area

Installing a kitchen unit by the window with the transformation of the window sill into a countertop is convenient, especially in small spaces. Good illumination of the working area during the day will allow not to use electricity. The hostess will have the opportunity to have fun while cooking, watching what is happening on the street.

If you plan to install the sink near the window, carefully consider the details before starting the installation.The spout should not impede the opening of the valves, and water should fall on the windowsill. For heating radiators, which are located under the window, ventilation is required to allow warm air to penetrate.

Kitchen with window work area

Classic extra curtains in the work area. With this layout, blinds, Roman, roller blinds are chosen. They are combined with any style, if you correctly guess the material and shades.

In a narrow room do not use swing doors, but install a modular retractable system with drawers, which is more convenient.

Room decoration

To finish the kitchen in the country, the cottage there are much more opportunities than in a typical apartment. This is facilitated by the height, area, non-standard geometry of the room. Finishing in a wooden house is easier. Immediately after the construction of the building, it is minimized, for a start you only need to refine the surface of the floor, walls, and ceiling supporting structures.

Before working, you need to consider that the structure will shrink, while the interior decoration of the new building does not make sense to use materials that form cracks. The level of shrinkage depends on the type of wood. Glued lamellas sag least, walls of logs "lead". In a log house, where the walls are not sufficiently dried, a fungus will settle.

Wood kitchen finish

When decorating the walls of the timber, sliding fasteners are often used that do not allow the skin to crack. Engineering communications are not recommended to be laid inside the walls, they are mounted in an open way, hidden in special boxes. Against a background of wood, the retro-style wiring looks beautiful.

Heating appliances, a fireplace, a boiler in a wooden house must be isolated from the floor and walls to prevent fire. The insulation made of stone looks harmonious. Not less than six months after the construction, the wooden surfaces inside the house are cleaned, ground, treated against fungus and corrosion in places where metal fasteners are planned.After they start decorating with varnish, paints, sheathe with drywall, lining, ceramic tiles.

Brick apron lining

In panel-frame houses, nails, screws are attached only to the frame of the building. Hanging cabinets are hung on a pre-attached rail.

The interior decoration of the house of stone has its own characteristics. Finishing is preceded by smoothing surfaces with plaster. After these works, the walls become smooth, homogeneous, ready for wallpapering, tiling, applying a variety of decorative plasters, painting. A layer of plaster also performs a heat-insulating function.

An alternative to plaster - sheet materials: GKL, GVL, TsSP. With even walls, they are attached directly to the wall, which reduces the cost and time of work.

To whom the wooden interior is close, they use a board, lining, facade board or block house for lining. The use of valuable species due to the aroma will create a sense of life in a wooden house.

The walls of the stone house are tiled, stone, wall panels made of wood, PVC. In unheated summer cottages, facade materials are used: brick, fiber cement panels, facade plasters, they are not afraid of summer and winter attacks of temperature and humidity.

The color scheme for the kitchen in a private house

The modern kitchen combines any materials that the owner likes. In the color scheme, it is desirable to group compositions and tones around a certain accent within the framework of one style.

But since the space of a private house is quite spacious, all colors are used here, right down to black.

Light colors are the most versatile, associated with cleanliness, white and light furniture do not burden the space, combined with any style, from classic to modern. In a wooden house on white it is better not to go in cycles.The use of wood in floor and wall coverings, furniture promotes harmony, makes the room warm, cozy.

Dark wood furniture and ceiling in the kitchen

In a bright room with large windows, dark kitchen facades diluted with chrome glitter, light countertops, and bright mosaics noblely look. A white wall opposite the window or a bright shade of one of the surfaces will enliven and brighten the interior.

When colorizing the kitchen take into account:

  • where the windows of the room look, using the appropriate warm or cold colors;
  • the size and number of windows, the landscape behind them;

Natural wood in the design of the kitchen of a private house

In a wooden house, trim from the same material is appropriate. Natural materials create a unique look, consistent with the concept of green housing. Do not forget about the susceptibility of the material to temperature fluctuations, reactions to high humidity in the kitchen microclimate.

After proper preparation of the surfaces, the most economical way of decorating will be varnish and paint. In order not to lose the natural color of the wood, they should not be dull, but transparent. Also used tinted, tinted products that emphasize the structure of the tree.

To preserve the wooden interior lining and MDF panels are ideal. They simultaneously allow you to hide communications, insulation, do not require additional processing. Planks are stacked in different directions, combine methods.

The walls of the spacious kitchen are planked with boards, bars. The effect of log masonry is created by the decoration of the block house, which does not crack, easily fits. On the floor are organically looking rounded boards or a budget laminate. For aesthetic concealment of communications on the ceiling, the most suitable lining material. Cable channels on surfaces are selected to match the color of the sheathing.

Typically, structures made of glued beams are made using a variety of materials and styles. In a log house, it is advisable to keep open surfaces, pre-treated with impregnations, varnished or painted.

Kitchen in the attic

The kitchen under the roof is an effective solution. The main task is to think over a communication system. If the attic has large sloping windows, and wood is used in its decoration, it will become doubly warm and welcoming. When decorating the premises, multi-level furniture with a beveled upper part is used. Lightweight modular versions equipped with wheels are preferred to heavy headsets. Rails and other new storage systems will be useful.

For maximum convenience, the attic kitchen should be adjacent to the dining area, complemented by access to an outdoor terrace. The best layout option is a studio. High partitions are undesirable; for zoning use low racks or a sofa with a bar counter.The stairs to the kitchen under the roof should have wide steps equipped with handrails.
