Upholstered kitchen furniture is comfortable and relevant

Soft kitchen corners are so familiar attributes of the kitchen that they are not perceived separately. Modern industry has tried and introduced into its arsenal all the materials that are possible for the production of this miracle of furniture thought. At the same time, the price of the product can vary from minimal to sky-high.

We will not surprise you much if we say that the upholstered furniture in the kitchen is represented by a corner sofa that fits neatly into one of the free corners of the kitchen. It can comfortably accommodate three or more people. And what is most pleasant, this element of the kitchen interior can be easily built with your own hands, according to an individual project.

The main task is to enter.

You are ready, we do not mind ...

And before proceeding with the coverage of the technical aspects of cutting, assembly, painting and other things, I would like, nevertheless, to set you up for a certain creative wave and voice a few parting words.

So, of course, you made the right decision for a number of reasons:

• More often kitchen furniture manufacturers are faced with the problem of individual sizes, and if for private workshops working with individual orders it is on the shoulder, then the enterprises cannot. They will not leave the standards;
• The manufacturer can not one hundred percent choose the color scheme you need. Therefore, in many apartments, do-it-yourself seat covers, sofa backs are increasingly observed;
• There is another plus of self-made, which will certainly be appreciated by housewives. The fact is that the voids under the seats are very often used to store all kinds of kitchen utensils.
  Having shown a certain ingenuity, these voids can be designed and filled in such a way that assigned places will immediately appear for many trifles, which you will agree is very convenient, but for interior design of a small kitchen saving.

Note!
When designing a kitchen corner, try not to overload the structure with various functional inserts. Overkill often leads to more chaos.

The corner can be small.

In preparation

In any business, preparation is important. Good preparation will ensure you 75% success.

During this time, it is necessary to think over and solve the following issues:

• Create a kitchen corner project;
• Prepare tool and material;
• Cut out the material.

But when all this is completed, then proceed to assembly, painting and installation.

And since we are at the preparatory stage, we will go through them all step by step.

1. Corner project. Yes, without a project anywhere. This responsible event will predetermine all our further actions. The creation of a project begins with measuring the space in which you plan to fit the product.

Note!
The very measurement of two lengths and one width, as a rule, does not present any particular difficulties.
But here's where the first stop comes in is to determine the difference between the width of the seats and the width of the base of the support.
The fact is that for any type of design, the width of the base of the lower support and the width of the seats will not match.
The size of the base will be smaller, this is due to the physiological characteristics of a person's placement of legs when sitting (legs under oneself). Take a look at the photo for clarity.

This design allows you to comfortably sit on the seat.

Note!
In order to avoid the pangs of creativity in terms of the required construction height, seat width, etc. We bring to your attention a simple trick.
Take a regular kitchen stool as a reference. The height from the floor to the seat and the side of the base of the square are considered standard, and you don't need any more.
If you are thinking about the question of how high to make the backrest, then this is a matter of taste, but here we will still give you one piece of advice.

Here he is:

Advice!
It is believed that the back of the soft corner should not be lower than the level of the window sill, but it is not recommended to overlap it too much. Proceed from the value of 5 centimeters, more, perhaps, is not worth it.

Typically, the entire kitchen couch consists of three main parts:

• Short bench;
• Long bench;
• Connecting pedestal.

In this case, everything can be included in a monolithic structure, but we recommend preparing each element as an independent one. This recommendation has a more practical application, if necessary, the structures can be arranged in one row, removed, rearranged, etc. And the price of the issue is two side support parts.

1. Preparing tools and materials.
   What we take:
   • A screwdriver with attachments and a curly screwdriver for furniture fittings;
   • Wood drill set;
   • Knife with replaceable blades;
   • Electric jigsaw.

Note!
We usually recommend a variety of meters when carrying out any work with our own hands.
But in this case, we strongly recommend that you cut the material and saw it on professional equipment in the workshop.

1. Now let's go through the materials. Kitchen corners can be made of both wood and chipboard. The latter material will certainly be cheaper.
   The seat cushions can be made of foam or polyurethane foam, and although in terms of price foam rubber is cheaper, you can of course take it if you are not interested in the result, or you are ready to change it too often.
   Piano hinges are perfect for movable fixing of the lid to the base, and the fit can be done using a metal saw.
2. And cut. We have already said, we repeat, it is better to entrust the cutting to professional equipment and craftsmen. You are guaranteed to be protected from the need to restore the part, to carry out some other camouflage actions in case of chips, deformations and other unpleasant moments.

Correct project, competent cutting, the rest is a matter of technology.

Motor assembly

In general, upholstered furniture for the kitchen: corners, separate sofas, armchairs must be hygienic, which means it is easy to wash and, if necessary, disinfect.

When assembling, it is important:

• Stick to the project;
• Carry out manipulations in stages.

After assembly, the product is primed and painted. In this case, for the evenness of the paint application, it is better to use a spray gun.

And tell me that you cannot do it.

Finally

Our instruction does not consider the material with a specific example. Only general principles are given that are applied when choosing a project for specific conditions (see. also how to assemble kitchen furniture). This is especially for you. Having mastered the principles, you can easily create your project, and the following video will help you in this.
