All kinds of options

It is noteworthy that in small rooms, comfort is built precisely on the interior items, on how they are arranged, how much space they take and what role they play. Therefore, we will begin the article with what furniture is suitable for a small kitchen so that the harmony is not disturbed.

Kitchen set in a small kitchen

• First of all, it is worth determining the style of furniture for yourself. It is better to dwell on minimalism, which both frees up space and makes it more functional. That is, the first thing you should understand for yourself is that only small kitchen sets are suitable for small kitchens, without bulky kitchen cabinets and roomy pedestals.
• It is also necessary to determine how the furniture will be arranged. There are two options: L-shaped (corner) and along one wall. Each is good in its own way, for example, small corner kitchens allow you to increase the work space and install as much equipment as possible in the headset. The option of placing the headset on one wall does not eat up a lot of space and allows for easier access to the dining table.

• The more "light" materials, the easier the furniture is perceived. Glass facades, as well as any glossy surfaces that reflect light, are relevant for small spaces. This is due to the fact that light visually expands the space in the kitchen, and the more sources of reflection, the more spacious the room seems.

Note! The spaciousness of the headset is quite difficult to calculate, but you can adjust to the existing utensils. To do this, remember (see) whether you have enough space in the old kitchen, or consult with friends who have recently updated furniture, purchased kitchens in a small kitchen.

Another important component is that for small-sized premises it is better to order furniture according to individual projects, but not to purchase ready-made ones. This allows you to adapt as much as possible to the existing dimensions.

Dining area in the kitchen

Small kitchen tables, of course, are considered the best option for small spaces, but there are equally interesting and practical alternatives:

• The bar counter minimizes the dining area, while harmoniously fitting into the interior of a small kitchen. This option is also convenient in that it is easy to push the chairs under the counter, which usually interfere with the passage. Plus, it can be used as an extension of the headset, that is, an additional work surface.
• Folding table that can be fixed to the wall. It is interesting because you can do it yourself and save money on purchasing a finished product. It is best to attach it to the wall opposite the headset.

Note! To make folding small table for the kitchen at home, you will need: chipboard, card hinges and screws.

The main load is on the hinges, so you should buy high-quality ones. You can see in the photo what a homemade table looks like in a small kitchen.

• A small kitchen table can be arranged on the windowsill. This option allows you to free up other parts of the room and highlight the dining area. Agree, it is quite pleasant to eat food using natural light that does not strain your eyes.

If the kitchen is already very small, then it is better to leave only the most basic in the room.

Upholstered furniture in the kitchen

Best of all, of course, is a small sofa in the kitchen with a sleeping place, which will perform two functions: serve as a seating area and a dining sofa.

However, it is necessary to choose the right one for the interior:

• If you prefer natural materials, a wooden sofa is best.. It goes well with natural facades indoors, also emphasizes solidity and is environmentally friendly.
• If the kitchen space is square, then the ideal option would be soft corner for the kitchen. Even better, if it has hidden drawers, you can store various kitchen items in them.
• The sofa must necessarily overlap in colors with other furniture in the room.. For example, a combination of an entrance door and a corner, a headset and a sofa is suitable.

Note! It is best to highlight the dining area. Even if you are considering small sofas for the kitchen, the best option would be to use some kind of finishing materials to accentuate the table.

Soft sofas with metal elements go well with glass tables

Colors in a small kitchen

What needs to be done to make a small kitchen cozy and attractive?

Add the correct colors to it:

• It is very important that the room is as illuminated as possible. You can use both natural light and artificial lights.
• Light colors visually increase the space.
• Bright colors (red, light green, pink) affect the mood and well-being of a person. For example, a lot of red makes you appetite, and yellows invigorate.
• It is undesirable to merge too many different shades in a small kitchen, such a combination will only cause irritation and tension.
