Life in the countryside is very different from the bustle of the city and the eternal noise. A wooden house has a certain energy, which contributes to the creation of a favorable environment. And since the kitchen is the central place in a person’s home, it is in it that the most comfortable and cozy living conditions should be created.
This is exactly what will be discussed in our article.
kitchen room
First of all, it is worth noting that pollution most often occurs in the kitchen, this is not due to the negligence of the owners, it is influenced by other factors. Such as, for example, high humidity or daily cooking. All this, of course, affects the cleanliness of the room, which leads to the appearance of "muddy" spots on interior items.
That is why the kitchen and bathroom in a wooden house should be on a special account, stand, so to speak, in the first place in finishing and creating comfortable conditions. We will only talk about the kitchen, you can read about the bathroom in another article on our website, or watch an informative video there.
And we will start with how we will create the best conditions for the interior, we will take the arrangement of the kitchen in a wooden house into our own hands.
Flooring
Kitchens in wooden houses usually have space and freedom of action, a minimum of 10 square meters is allocated for the dining area. Even more often, such premises reach 16 or even 20 square meters..
Agree, the area is impressive, and it is far from indifferent what kind of floor is under our feet. Especially in a wooden house, where everything is made from environmentally friendly materials.
Ceramic tile
- Resistant to all external influences: sunlight, acid-base environments, moisture, fire and mechanical shock.
- Durable and wear-resistant, the color and pattern of the tiles will please you for a long time to come.
- Variety of color solutions.
- It is also worth saying that the disadvantage - a cold surface, can be solved by installing underfloor heating systems.
For your information!
And it is not at all necessary to order the installation of the system from specialists, you can do it yourself by reading an informative article on laying a warm floor on our website.
It would seem that the kitchen floor is ideal for a wooden house, but do not forget that the tile is a very slippery material. If moisture remains on the surface, then there is a high probability that someone will slip.
Parquet (laminate)
- Fits perfectly into the interior of wooden structures.
- Environmentally friendly material.
- A variety of shades and textures, several types of styling.
- Easy installation that does not require special skills.
Note!
Parquet is considered to be the number one floor covering for a wooden house.
After all, the most important thing in environmentally friendly buildings is to maintain a homogeneous environment, if the house is made of wood, then the furniture and decoration must match. The photo shows an example of a country kitchen in natural colors.
Linoleum can hardly be called an actual material for the kitchen, if only because it is afraid of high temperatures. For example, a hot frying pan easily deforms the surface of even the most resistant coating. Yes, this is a rarity, but the given fact cannot be crossed out.
Walls in the kitchen
Finishing the kitchen in a wooden house does not end with the choice of materials for the floor, now we have to deal with vertical surfaces - the walls in the room.
natural look
- A great opportunity to enjoy wooden walls.
- Natural materials create a great opportunity for your imagination to roam.
The only drawback is the need to use special coatings that prevent the appearance of fungus and mold on the walls. Such procedures should be carried out every 5-6 years to prevent the tree from rotting, depending on the quality of the antiseptics.
You will also need to carefully sand the surface to eliminate bumps and roughness. This can be done with your own hands, using sandpaper, or a special tool, or you can turn to the services of specialists. The procedure is simple, so we advise you to do it yourself.
Important!
In the area of \u200b\u200bthe working surface, be sure to use a protective material - an apron, which will help keep the surface of the tree safe and sound.
After all, it is in this place that an abundant accumulation of all pollution.
Drywall
The layout of the kitchen in a wooden house can also be done using drywall.
- It is safe for people around.
- Resistant to temperature changes and humidity, which is usually present in kitchens.
- The ability to finish with any material: wallpaper, ceramic tiles, plaster, paint.
- Affordable price and simple installation allow this material to remain popular and not lose demand.
Ceiling in the kitchen
The last element of the room that needs to be ennobled.
The choice, in this case, is obvious.
- If the kitchen has a stove, then there is no need to say that there will be stretch ceilings in the kitchen. High temperature - the heat emanating from the furnace and pipe adversely affects the canvas. It is better to use either suspended structures, or leave wooden ceilings, varnishing them.
- If you decide to minimize the amount of natural coverings in the kitchen (you don’t have a stove), you can safely opt for woven ceilings. It is, firstly, stylish, and secondly, practical.

Your repost will change the Internet :)
When planning a set in a wooden house, you should remember that the building structure is part of the interior. Such a room is suitable for classic and modern design, the main thing is to combine proportions and functionally think over the location of kitchen cabinets.
Neoclassical MDF furniture with a wood texture. Color of facades: wenge. The set is located along three walls in the room, in addition, the kitchen complex includes an island part. The bar counter on the island can replace the dining table if few people gather at the meal.
Minimalism in black gloss. Laconic U-shaped set in a house made of timber. There are two window openings in the kitchen-dining room, the walls in the room are not covered with finishing material, due to this combination, space is preserved in the room, despite the dark range of facades.
Light Provence in a modern cottage - neoclassical forms of furniture, natural materials, roller blinds with a floral pattern, laconic spotlights.
Wardrobes repeat the outline of a room in a country house. Every meter in this kitchen is involved. For example, a shelf is made under the hood, on which the hostess stores kitchen utensils.
The rounded timber is the structural basis of the building and the main accent of the interior in a natural style. The solid wood set looks organically surrounded by natural wood walls.
Glued laminated timber walls, ceiling beams, neoclassical interiors, wooden shelves for decor and wicker baskets, a fireplace hood. All elements look great on the same area and create a feeling of comfort inside the house.
If there is a lot of natural wood in the room, humidity levels should be controlled with particular care.
Country style kitchen. Finishing of wooden walls - plaster and white paint. The design of the kitchen is reminiscent of the life of the Mediterranean and the creations of Italian masters.
The interior is in a stylized Gothic style. Here, dark elements contrast against the background of light-colored timber walls.
Compact corner set made of laminated chipboard for 12 sq. m.
During the repair process, it is better not to cover the walls from the timber with another finish, so use a special impregnation to protect the material. Thus, you will increase the life of the timber and maintain its appearance.
Rustic style in the kitchen-dining room. The island is used as an additional work surface, and a second sink is also located here. The room is quite light, due to the second light, window openings on two levels and a spacious area.
Russian traditions in the design of the kitchen. The furniture and design of the house look like one whole. Handles and external hinges are quite massive, but emphasize the overall idea.
Planning a kitchen design in your own wooden house is a pleasure, because you are not limited by the area, and nothing prevents you from combining several rooms into one. In addition, a kitchen in a wooden house is an excellent springboard for expressing your creative fantasies. The first thing to start with is to decide on the style of the future kitchen.
Kitchens in the following styles look most harmonious in a wooden house:
- American;
- country style;
- provence;
- Scandinavian.
Kitchen-living room
The kitchen-living room is the dream of many housewives, which is not surprising. It has enough space for the realization of the culinary possibilities of the hostess. It combines two rooms into a single space, which allows you to beautifully set the table and receive guests in the living room, and prepare food in the kitchen. In addition, with such zoning of space, you do not have to transfer dishes from one room to another.
Ways to delimit space
However, for such a room to be functional, its interior must be carefully planned. First of all, you should decide how best to divide the space. The most classic option is the sofa, which has a back to the kitchen. The space can be delimited by other pieces of furniture. For this, a bar counter, a chest of drawers, a cupboard with dishes, and even a dining table are suitable. In addition, you can use a screen or partition.
You can also delimit the space with the help of well-chosen textiles and color schemes. For example, you can use a game of contrast: for this, the kitchen should be kept in light colors, and the living room in dark. You can emphasize the unity of style by using white accessories in a dark living room: pillows, chair upholstery, curtains, paintings and photographs. It doesn't have to be black and white though. The game on the contrasts of green and yellow colors will look original and bright.
You can achieve a unification of space with the help of curtains. Keep them in the same color scheme, but at the same time make them different in texture. A combination of light curtains in the kitchen and thick curtains of the same color in the living room will look harmonious. Another design option is a combination of curtains with the same ornament, but in a different color.
Dividing zones with lighting design is another interesting idea. This option is convenient and easy to implement. Highlight a work area, a dining table with an independent light source. You can also light up the bar. To achieve the effect of natural light, use hidden light from a large number of halogen fixtures that are evenly spaced across the ceiling.
Using gradation in levels as an option for dividing space
Another way to beautifully delimit the space involves the use of different finishes. For example, one of the zones can be distinguished by changing the level of the ceiling. Or, conversely, it is allowed to create a podium in one of the zones.
Advice! In this case, you should be careful: after all, at first it will be inconvenient to move around such a multi-level room, and you will constantly stumble.
Check out the other solution as well. Break the floor into separate zones by using a different floor covering (different in pattern, shape or color). The floor in the two zones will be located at the same level, but it will seem that it is at a different height.
The kitchen-living room in a wooden house is a great option for organizing a large space.
Large American style kitchen
One of the most harmonious styles that is suitable for the kitchen-living room is the American style.
Advice! To find inspiration, it is enough to watch any American series or film - in almost every one of them you can see a similar cuisine.
Why is the so-called American style so attractive? First of all, the spirit of freedom that hovers in a large space. Therefore, the main rule of competent American design is the presence of a large area that can be allocated for the kitchen. For your own home, this shouldn't be a problem.
Creating the American Dream
The obligatory principle of the kitchen in this style is an increased level of comfort. It should be convenient for the hostess to reach out to any little thing. All items must be placed ergonomically.
As a rule, the space in the American kitchen is divided with the help of an “island”, which allows you to create many options for decorating the room. So, the "island" will help to distinguish the kitchen area from the dining or living area. The island can be used as a cooking surface or eating area. It can also be arranged as a bar counter.
American-style cuisine does not accept minimalism or high-tech elements: the atmosphere should be cozy and homely. Furniture is recommended to choose wooden. As for the color palette, the American style is characterized by light and warm colors that further expand the space and fill the kitchen with light. The same principle should be followed when designing a window: do not use double curtains or bulky curtains: the window should be as open as possible.
Such a kitchen assumes the presence of modern household appliances in full - the more the better. After all, it makes life easier for the hostess, which is the main principle of style.
Separation of space in the kitchen
However, not every home can afford a spacious kitchen-living room. If you are limited in space, then you will have to use other interior planning options. If you approach the issue creatively, then such a kitchen interior in a wooden house will look just as good.
The most important issue that many residents face when planning a kitchen interior is the issue of space division. It becomes more complicated if the house does not provide a separate room for eating. In this case, you should think about dividing the space into two zones - eating and cooking directly.
Here you should follow the basic rule - maintaining the correct proportions. So, the decision to infringe on one zone at the expense of another will not be correct. Otherwise, you risk that eating will be comfortable, and cooking it is difficult. Or the reverse situation is possible: you will cook in comfortable conditions, and eat, huddled on an uncomfortable stool in the corner.
Scandinavian style kitchen
The Scandinavian-style kitchen is literally filled with light. This effect is achieved through the complete absence of curtains or the use of symbolic Roman blinds. This effect is enhanced if the walls of the kitchen in the house are painted in light colors.
A similar palette should also be followed when choosing a kitchen set. The best options for it will be natural materials (wood of various species) or their imitations. What you definitely shouldn't use are the glossy plastic options. Avoid fancy accessories. When creating a Scandinavian style, you should be guided by the motto - the simpler the better.
Don't forget live plants. They can be placed not only in the most obvious place - the windowsill, but also on the floor. This applies, first of all, to tall plants that will turn your kitchen into an oasis of peace.
When planning an interior in this style, special attention should be paid to bright accents so that the room does not turn into a “hospital ward”. This will help bright accessories and textiles. For example, the wall adjacent to the window can be decorated with wallpaper in a small flower. Thus, you decorate the window, and you do not have to clutter it with curtains. It is also recommended to highlight the kitchen apron (in this example, it is advisable to repeat the pattern of the wallpaper). Finally, well-chosen accessories will help to complete the interior design: bright vases, dishes, candles, photos, etc.
Kitchen in a wooden house in Provence or country style
Consider these two styles in one topic, since by and large they do not have fundamental differences for non-professionals. It is not difficult to recreate these stylistic decisions in the kitchen of your own home, since this option is the easiest to implement.
It is enough just to use the right finishing material (mainly consisting of wood), decor and textiles.
Kitchens in this style look perfect in your own home, as they allow you to provide space for a window right next to the sink. It is both comfortable and beautiful. Indeed, in this case, you will not be dark and bored when washing dishes. By decorating the window with light floral curtains, you will achieve the maximum effect. On another window, similar curtains made in a different color that matches the previous one will look good.
To recreate the style, it is recommended to use white furniture - it will most of all emphasize the "rustic" orientation of the interior. Stop your choice on a round extendable table, which will allow you to receive many guests. On white wooden chairs, fix bright and colorful seats that match in color with other accessories.
Competently selected details complete the interior. For example, the ideal solution would be to use a curtain instead of a door on a box with a trash can, which repeats window curtains in color and pattern.
Ideal kitchen for a summer residence
An increasing number of citizens prefer to spend their weekends in the country. As you know, outdoor recreation awakens the appetite. The most favorite country dish, of course, is barbecue, cooked outdoors on the grill. But you can not ignore other possible dishes that can only be cooked on the stove. In addition, one cannot ignore the situation that it may rain unexpectedly. Therefore, the kitchen in the country in a wooden house is a necessary premise.
However, when planning its interior, one should take into account the features inherent in a country holiday. First of all, you do not go out into nature to cook. From this, you need to proceed when planning the interior. Therefore, it is recommended to abandon the four burners on the stove - opt for two.
The cooking area can also be made smaller than in a residential building. Try to distinguish between two zones in the kitchen: in the first you will cook food, in the second - to gather at the table with the whole family and have a meal. This division of space can be achieved by using wallpapers of different colors and textures, color design of zones, or using some piece of furniture to delimit the space, for example, a cupboard with dishes, a chest of drawers or a sofa.
Advice! Do not clutter up the kitchen with furniture! In the country should certainly be a place for space. In addition, it will greatly facilitate cleaning.
Even the country kitchen should have its own style
If you want to keep the flavor of a country house, then instead of a stove, you can install a stove. Although it should be noted that food will be cooked much more slowly in it.
A small refrigerator will allow you to more rationally arrange furniture in a small country kitchen
The kitchen in a wooden house and its design is not only responsible, but also exciting. After all, there is nothing more pleasant than equipping your own cozy “nest”. If you wish, you can make the kitchen completely on your own.

Openness gives a feeling of a significant increase in the area of the room, its open spaces. At the same time, part of the kitchen cabinets and equipment can be slightly shifted to the dining room. However, in this case, you should carefully consider the choice of kitchen decor and furniture, adhering to stylistic decisions in combination with kitchen paraphernalia. In this case, the layout of the kitchen with an island, a bar counter or the installation of a conventional cutting table can act as a zoning element.

Choosing a color palette for the kitchen in a house from a bar
Whatever the size of the kitchen of a wooden house, there will always be fans of white in the decoration and design of the kitchen set. This is the color that never goes out of style, which is incredibly easy to combine with other colors and shades, decor, furniture and textiles. However, you should be careful with the general use of white shades in the design of the kitchen.
It is necessary to apply contrasts to dilute the snow-white composition with other tones.
To do this, it is enough to use the countertop and the technique of a contrasting shade, for example, black. As an intermediate tone between black and white, it is better to use a gray tint.
Another example of a rather contrasting combination is the use of light wooden kitchen cabinet fronts in combination with black pendant lamp shades, white walls and ceiling, and a white kitchen worktop.
It is important to choose a style in which the properties of wood will be best played.
If there is a sufficiently large kitchen in a wooden house, you can allow, as a finish, imitation of brick or masonry in combination with a white kitchen set.

Dark gray kitchen fronts will look great with a colorful backsplash. The presence of white walls and ceilings should be added to this design in order to get a balanced and interesting concept as a result.
The color of natural wood will always be in trend. This is due to the natural warmth of the wood material and its environmental friendliness.
The contrast created by natural wood materials combined with the glossy surface of the metal kitchen appliances look especially bright, bringing cool tones to the design of the kitchen space.
Unpainted wooden fronts look great against a snow-white finish, especially when using countertops of a similar shade. In a room with a sufficient number of square meters, you can achieve the most convenient placement of kitchen appliances, while always having the necessary things at hand, for example, a cookbook or beautiful dishes.
A wooden house opens up great opportunities for the implementation of interesting ideas.
The white color of the kitchen fronts combined with the luxurious chocolate tones of the wood will look simply amazing.

The classic solution is the interior of the kitchen in a village house with a stove. Half of the room is given over to a stove, usually Russian, brick, bleached with lime.
If there is not enough space, then the design of the kitchen in a wooden house with a stove can be rebuilt in a modern manner, instead of a huge brick colossus, a small cast-iron stove-fireplace can be installed.
At the same time, the device of the "folk" kitchen-studio remains very comfortable and functional, despite the absence of the usual kitchen set and countertops. Most of the kitchen work is done on a huge oak table located in the center of the room. The table itself adds detail to the interior of a country house kitchen and at the same time serves as a piece of furniture for dining or relaxing with the whole family.
American version of the kitchen in a wooden house
If we are talking about a wooden frame-type house with interior trim of tongue and groove boards and clapboard, then you can try to decorate the kitchen in the American style.
In this case, finishing the kitchen in a wooden house is done in the simplest and most affordable way:
A distinctive feature of the American style is the use of an "island" furniture layout. In addition to the tabletop, an additional table-rack is always installed in the center of the room, serving as both a working area and a dining table.
Country style decor
One of the most common styles of country and country houses is used only in the part that the owners like. Country is nature and hard rural work, a real kitchen in a country house of country design, photo, is a warehouse of the most incredible things and objects.
For an ordinary wooden cottage, the kitchen can simply be equipped with furniture made of boards, reliable and quite functional.
You can assemble a kitchen in a country house with your own hands, the design of which in country style will always be unique, albeit somewhat simplified.
Building a kitchen interior in a natural style
One of the sources of ideas in the development of the design of the kitchen space can be popular styles of buildings made of wood, for example, the mountain "Chalet" or the rural "Shebbi".
Chalet-style cottages are built mainly from rounded logs of large diameter, the massive details of the walls and ceiling are especially prominent. In such a room, the kitchen occupies only a small part of the building, so it is almost always a variant of the studio located in the corner of the building.
To decorate the kitchen, massive ceiling beams can be used as a decorative element, and the absence of an attic space will only enhance the impression of a chalet-style kitchen studio.
Of course, it makes no sense to copy the simplified interior of the chalet for your kitchen, even if you need to stylishly decorate the kitchen, you should not sacrifice its functionality for the sake of design. Therefore, you can simply install modern furniture under the open slopes of the roof of a wooden house, which will fit into the design no worse than the original hewn oak furniture.
The same principle can be used when designing a kitchen in a wooden house made of timber. Walls, floors and ceilings are to be finished with the most common materials, drywall, wall panels, tiles or even decorative plaster. To keep in touch with the direction of the wooden house style, it is best to make furniture for the kitchen room from solid wood, and lay out the floor with paving stones.
simple rustic kitchen style
Using a simple rural interior for the kitchen has always been and remains a win-win option. It is clear that the main idea of arranging a rustic kitchen remains convenience and functionality. Achieving such an effect when designing an interior is not as easy as it might seem at first glance.
One of the ways involves the use of the simplest furniture made of wood, often polished and unpainted, and even made by hand. The walls in such a kitchen are left as they were at the end of the construction, only little things are added in the form of hanging shelves, open wiring, dishes and simple lamps.
In the hands of an experienced designer, a simple rustic setting easily transforms into a loft-style interior. For fans of the Scandinavian style, you can offer a more advanced version of the chalet kitchen. Instead of wooden walls, a completely civilized finish is used, and a few rough-hewn boards and timber only enhance the perception of the natural environment of the room.
We collect the interior of the room, as a children's designer
Planning a kitchen interior has always been and remains a creative process, in which it is not necessary to follow the established stamps and design solutions. Many experts are generally of the opinion that the design of a kitchen in a wooden house can be a free combination of the most unexpected materials and solutions, the main thing is that in the setting at least 20% of the interior should be objects with a pronounced wooden texture.
Ceiling decoration in the kitchen
The most popular ways to finish the ceiling space come down to three options:
- The formation of massive wooden beams of the ceiling, emphasizing that the kitchen belongs to a building built of logs and timber;
- The ceiling is sewn up with wooden clapboard or grooved board;
- The surface is finished with whitewashing or painting with white acrylic paints.
The latter option is used in cases where the kitchen furniture does not have an outstanding style, so it is impossible for the ceiling to be brighter and more expressive than the furniture of the room. Massive wooden beams, on the contrary, are used as the main element of decor. If you replace the ceiling decor with ordinary plastic tiles or stucco molding, then all the expressiveness of the design is lost, and you won’t immediately understand in which house the kitchen is located, in a wooden or ordinary one.
The upholstery of the ceiling with a rail is used in cases where the walls of the kitchen room are left unfinished, log or timber crowns are displayed without any finishing. In this case, the ceiling is necessarily hemmed with wooden trim - board, slabs or grooved clapboard.
Decorative wall decoration, room furniture
Several types of coatings are used to decorate the walls of the kitchen space. Since the room is located in a wooden house, at least one of the walls is given for finishing with timber, logs or slats.
Sometimes, instead of log upholstery on kitchen walls, several rows of plastic imitation of log or log crowns can be used. According to the designers, horizontal lines make the room visually expand, while warm woody colors give the room a more positive mood.
Wooden lining is stuffed on the walls mainly in a vertical orientation, while the color of the finish is either adjusted to match the shades of the furniture, or vice versa, contrasting colors are used.
Furniture, as well as walls, carry the main decorative load in the kitchen. In most cases, cabinets or tables of standard design, shape and size are used to furnish the kitchen in a wooden house.
For connoisseurs of unusual design, a furniture set can be made of wooden furniture panels, often without any varnishing or decorative finishes. The natural color and texture of a sanded wood surface can be just as impressive as gloss varnish or paint.
The most unusual types of furniture for the kitchen in a wooden house are made from solid wood, slatted boards, and timber. It is clear that hewn, deliberately rough furniture is used mainly in special interiors of wooden houses.
Since the cooking process required not only beautiful, but also comfortable furniture, tables, chairs, coasters, countertops, even stylized as rough homemade products, were always made as convenient as possible for everyday use.
Floor and additional interior details
For the kitchen of a wooden house, two types of floor are used:
- Stone from porcelain stoneware, most often stylized as natural material;
- Plank floor made of larch, or its imitation based on laminate.
Ceramic flooring is used mainly in cases where the kitchen is located in the basement or basement of the building. In other cases, kitchen rooms are equipped only with wooden floors.
The color and pattern of the flooring should match the overall color scheme of the kitchen. For an interior in the style of a rustic building, these will be artificially aged gray boards - floorboards, for a design in the style of a mountain chalet, a massive oak board with an unpolished surface and a pronounced grain pattern is used.
In addition to the floor, minor details play an important role in shaping the interior of the kitchen, for example, the arrangement of lamps or the size of windows. In the event that the ceiling space is filled with massive floor beams, pendant lamps with wide "hats" - lampshades and adjustable suspension height are necessarily used in the kitchen.
Spotlights can be installed for a slatted ceiling, and traditional chandeliers and lamps are used for a snow-white, table-like ceiling.
Conclusion
The kitchen in a wooden house embodies the character of the constructed building in its design and at the same time orients the residents to a certain status of communication. The kitchen area has long ceased to be a place for cooking, it is a whole system and way of communication between the owners. The more labor and effort invested in this room, the more positive returns to the mood of people.
