Kitchen project in Khrushchev (42 photos): DIY video instructions for installation, price, photo

Even living in Khrushchev, a person still has freedom - freedom of choice. And today only the amount of money and your imagination can limit this freedom. Let's not say that you are very lucky, but even on a little more than six square meters, you can create your own, absolutely unique style of kitchen.

Before we start changing and starting to design, let's answer one question for ourselves. How do we see our future kitchen? Modern technologies make it possible to expand the kitchen area due to the sanitary block and the corridor. But, and once again "but" - projects of kitchens for Khrushchevs with a change in the configuration of the premises of the apartment - the lot of professional builders.

There are options.

Note!
Houses of this type use old construction technology. With this construction, the main load of the structure falls not on the supports, but on the walls.

If you remove the part of the load-bearing wall, which carries the main load, well, then you can imagine what might happen.
Therefore, in order to protect you and your neighbors from the possible negative consequences of removing the walls, these technologies are not considered in today's material.

And what we have left

And it remains for us to show imagination and ingenuity and transform these square meters that we have. Here, at least as in the next photo.

The most simple solution.

And before you start choosing kitchen furniture for Khrushchev, materials for decorating walls and floors, deciding on color and texture, let's deduce general patterns in the creative design process that are mandatory.

Kitchen projects in Khrushchev must take into account:

• The presence of a gas water heater and free space near it;
• Free access to all gas pipes and hoses;
• The presence of a sink and plumbing components: mixer, pipes, etc .;
• The presence of a gas stove;
• The presence of a refrigerator.

Note!
The presence of gas equipment presupposes an operational space, from which, alas, there is no escape.
The consequences of ignoring these rules are periodically highlighted in the news. The rest of household appliances and structures are indispensable attributes of kitchens and you simply cannot do without them. And they still occupy a place.

Note!
A refrigerator and a small washing machine are also common attributes in kitchens, although not required.
In Khrushchev buildings, washing machines are often located in the bathrooms, and refrigerators are in the corridors.

Let's start designing

Kitchen furniture project.

A kitchen project for Khrushchev, like any plan, must take into account all the nuances, namely:

• take into account your tastes as accurately as possible in color solutions;
• the kitchen should be as convenient as possible with a minimum number of additional components;
• everything in the kitchen should be as functional as possible.

Let's go through the points

Color solutions for the kitchen.

We do not pretend to be trendsetters in kitchen design, especially since the choice of color and material depends entirely on your taste and wallet. However, today we will highlight a few general tips and tricks for color solutions.

The fact is that small rooms are so bad because dark tones visually reduce them even more. Therefore, kitchen projects in Khrushchev suggest light colors, or their dominance. This does not mean that you cannot make dark inserts, in some solutions they will very well emphasize the general background of the room..

Contrast is definitely a winning option.

And more about color variations. If you do decide to make the kitchen one-color, then keep in mind that the color is not only determined visually, but also carries hidden information.

So warm colors: orange, beige - are conducive to comfort and satisfaction, red - aggressive, stimulates the appetite, but does not dispose to a calm conversation. White color is sick, soothes, but nothing more.

A few practical points

1. Khrushchevs, with their low ceiling height of 2.55 meters, clearly do not dispose to complex ceiling structures, therefore, before you start leveling the ceilings with hinged systems, carry out the calculation and see what of this work out.

Note!
The number of storeys in suspended structures is possible, small spotlights will perfectly fit in the overhanging islands, which will create additional lighting, but.
But they will take away part of the volume of the kitchen, which is already small.

Kitchen colors.

1. Walls. If the walls are flat, then the most common decoration materials are backsplash tiles for kitchen and wallpaper on the wall. Uneven walls are, of course, better leveled and here you will need drywall.

Note!
Strengthening drywall involves reducing the volume of the kitchen. Here you have to choose between flat walls in a smaller kitchen and curved walls in a kitchen with original volumes. But one more piece of information in defense of drywall.
This material allows you to design and build a variety of decorative niches in which decorative elements will look very nice: painted dishes, figurines, kitchen boards.

1. And about the floors. How can you skip such an important topic. Tiles can and should be laid on the floor, for example, of course, a budget option - linoleum. It is both warmer and softer and its price is more pleasant, but the tiles are more durable, and the issue of heat is solved by warm floors.

Let there be light

Lighting is our lifesaver in a small kitchen. The Khrushchev kitchen project must take into account lighting fixtures and reflective surfaces.

Note!
One of the features design of small kitchens Khrushchev is the overlap of the illumination of the working surface with wall cabinets.
In this case, it is recommended to place the spotlights above the work surface.

Note!
To create a cozy atmosphere in the kitchen, it is recommended to hang a small lamp with multidirectional shades, although this is also a matter of taste.

Note!
A mirror or mirror tile in a small kitchen will visually expand its boundaries.

Mirrors work wonders.

About furniture

Of course, you can design the number of lockers, the presence of certain cells and compartments in them both with your own hands and by inviting a specialist. At the same time, the design of your building can be completely individual.

The golden mean in the solution.

Finally

This manual is not intended to solve all the problems that arise when designing a kitchen in Khrushchev. Its main task is to guide you towards making an acceptable decision just for you. And the final touch of our material will be a traditional video.
