Not all housewives have spacious kitchens. Most often, in old Soviet apartments, they are quite small, and sometimes even tiny. However, even in such a situation, you can find a way out by resorting to design tricks... Play of colors, original modern style, spacious lockers and much more will help to solve this question... How to make the most of a small space in the kitchen will be discussed below.

Layout for a small kitchen

A small room is most often even with the correct layout and design solution can continue to press with four walls, as the feeling of tightness remains.

To avoid this, you can get rid of the door by arranging an arch instead. This can visually expand the space and remove the feeling of tightness. In case doors are needed, sliding models can be one of the options, which in addition look very stylish and modern.

A radical solution would be to combine the kitchen and living room, while getting a studio apartment. This layout is especially popular with young people. At the same time, the kitchen expands and the disadvantages of a small area are no longer so noticeable. In addition, the dining area can affect part of the living room, due to which space will be won for kitchen set and furniture, which will give the kitchen more functionality and comfort.

The layout of the kitchen set depending on the shape of the room

The correct location of the headset in the kitchen is the key to comfort, space saving and, as a result, saving time for cooking.

First of all, it is worth remembering the triangle rule, which is the placement of the refrigerator, sink and stove. It is this that contributes to the improvement of ergonomics in the kitchen, since it is based on the principle of alternating cooking, that is, first, the products are taken out of the refrigerator, then washed, cut and thermally processed.

The choice of the layout of the headset should be based on the shape of the room, the location of windows, doors, communications. If the kitchen is square, then the best option the U-shaped headset is considered. If dining area it is necessary to highlight separately, then the L-shape is more suitable.

For a rectangular kitchen, a linear arrangement is suitable, or parallel, when only one wall is used, which is longer, for arranging furniture, or outside parallel walls.

At non-standard form, including a studio apartment, the layout can be any, including island, oval. Also in this case you may need individual order furniture.

What style to choose for a small kitchen

In a small room, bulky parts are unacceptable, a large number of accessories, various parts, especially small ones. Therefore, the style must be chosen based on the features that each of them represents. Hence, for a small kitchen suitable styles are as follows:

Minimalism

This style will fit never better. It is characterized by functionality, practicality and a minimum of details. In this case, the area is used as efficiently as possible. Clear expressive lines, strict colors are welcome here, while the decor is almost absent.

High tech

This style is dominated by smooth glossy surfaces, glass inserts, metal elements, clear lines, cold tones. High-tech furniture and appliances, innovative design above all. Pretentious details in this style are not found. Everything is done as comfortably and tastefully as possible.

Modern

One of the modern styles for which non-traditional materials, original accessories, the presence of glossy surfaces, metal, mirrors are relevant. At the same time, the colors can be very diverse, including quite bold contrasting combinations.

Japanese

Strict lines are characteristic, natural materials, simple forms... Tones in this case are combined with dark and light. There are also patterns in the form of flowers, while the texture of the textiles is as simple as possible.

Color and pattern

With the help of color, you can not only expand, but also narrow down the space, so the choice colors plays a huge role. For a small kitchen, it is better to abandon dark tones, otherwise the room will seem even smaller, and the situation will be dull and burdensome. Therefore, the choice should be stopped on such colors as white, beige, cream, peach, olive, gray.

More possible bright colors by the type of green, yellow, pink, while it is important not to overdo it with brightness. Contrast is not always appropriate. If it comes about bright colors, then, for example, a red spot on a white background will narrow the space.

A smooth plain surface will visually add additional area. Gloss is also a winning option, since it perfectly reflects light, thereby moving the walls away from each other. Only small drawing can be used. Large ornaments and patterns are absolutely unacceptable in this case.

Textile

Huge oversize curtains are not recommended for use in the kitchen, regardless of its size. This is due to the fact that they not only absorb odors and quickly become dirty, but are also fire hazardous. Moreover, their moderate use applies to small kitchens.

For protection from the sun's rays, you can use a short tulle in the form of a curtain or a dense canvas hung with a narrow strip like a visor. Blinds, bamboo roll products will become a universal solution. Also popular and comfortable are Roman blinds that resemble an accordion.

Advice! If, nevertheless, the choice fell on fabric curtains, then it is better to use synthetic materials than natural fabrics, as they are easier to care for and have a fireproof and water-repellent impregnation.

Table and bar

A complete dining area for a small kitchen often becomes a huge luxury. In this case, it is relevant to ask the question of how to save space and accommodate the table, or what other options are possible.

There is always a way out. The first option is to use a window sill, which can be made an extension of the table. Thus, an additional work surface will appear that can be used functionally. At the same time, you can order a countertop that will replace the window sill, or you can install the surface on a different level.

The second option is to use a folding or pull-out table. Again, it can be attached to the windowsill. It is also possible to install a small table and attach a retractable tabletop to it. In addition, a folding table can be installed near a free wall and unfolded only when necessary, for example, during a meal.

Finally, a bar counter, which can be of various sizes and shapes, will be an excellent substitute for a dining table. It can become an extension of the window sill or become part of the U-shaped headset, continuing it. Bar counters are more compact and therefore take up less space... In addition, for a studio apartment, this is a great way to zone the space.

Floor and ceiling

V small kitchen it is important to make the ceiling in light colors, and best of all in white. The most simple options ordinary painting or wallpapering is considered. Another inexpensive solution and at the same time more practical and durable is the use of plastic panels.

More expensive and modern version are stretch ceiling... They will take heights only 2-3 cm, the effectiveness of such a choice is worth it. The main thing in this case is to use a glossy film, which will visually increase the height of the ceiling.

For the floor, you must use durable materials moisture resistant and easy to clean. Therefore, it is recommended to choose linoleum, ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware or self-leveling floor. It is unacceptable to use patterns, a plain surface will look better.

Walls

For walls, it is recommended to choose light monochromatic tones that will increase the space. It can be either painting or wallpaper. A pattern or drawing can only be unobtrusive, small, decorated plaster is allowed.

Wall murals look original, but you need to use them carefully so as not to overload the kitchen even more. It can be seascapes, photos of street cafes.

It is preferable to make an apron from ceramic tiles, stone or tempered glass... Again, large patterns and landscapes are not recommended.

Lighting

A small kitchen should be as light as possible. This is facilitated, among other things, by good lighting, which requires special attention... Bulky chandeliers are out of place here. They should be small size, not very noticeable, restrained colors, simple shapes.

It is worth installing separate lighting for the working area. Suitable for this Spotlights or led strip... The window should also be as open as possible so that natural light enters the room.

Secrets and Tricks

About light colors, smooth glossy surfaces and good lighting has already been said. All these subtleties can significantly increase the space visually. At the same time, it is important to know certain secrets to make the most of the usable area.

It is advisable to pick up the headset itself narrow and high in order to accommodate more items. The more hanging cabinets there are, the more storage space for kitchen utensils will appear.

Roof rails in the kitchen are often simply irreplaceable. They are hung over the table top in the form of a tube or a strip with metal hooks. It is convenient to place ladles, skimmers, ladles and many other necessary items on them.

Organizers not only help to make the lockers more spacious and more convenient, but in some cases make it easy to reach items that are near the far wall. There are also drawers, dish dividers, which also become great helpers in a small kitchen.

Thus, every centimeter of the kitchen can be used profitably by installing comfortable modern elements saving space. Even the space under the windowsill or bar counter can be reasonably applied by installing additional boxes, niches or retractable structures.

5 sq. m fit all the necessary furniture, the disadvantages are the close location of the freestanding stove and sink. It is better to move the module with a sink to the left edge, thus freeing up space for dishwasher, and a work surface will appear between the stove and the sink.

The advantage of a one-row layout is that there is room in the room to accommodate a dining table.

But if the size of the wall does not allow you to fit a sink, refrigerator, stove and work surface in one line the right size, use a corner layout.

To help in solving this problem, advice from designers will come, which you can use and translate the proposed ideas into reality.

What layout to choose

Square kitchen

Suitable for square kitchens. In them, you can conveniently distinguish between the working and dining areas. With this solution, the refrigerator, sink and stove can be located in such a way that they will form. Everything you need will be within walking distance.

The headset can be placed opposite. A large number of people can be accommodated at such a table.

If the kitchen design is very small, for example, 2 * 2 m, then a folding table will do.

The wide window can be used as a dining area.

Rectangular kitchen

For rectangular kitchens, it is better to place furniture along the walls. Instead of a dining table, it is better to give preference.

To visually expand the room, you can hang a large one on the walls or install a mirrored kitchen apron.

It is preferable to choose curtains for this option with a large pattern.

It is necessary to think about additional light, since work zone should be well lit. If the window is small or located on the same wall, illumination is indispensable.

Doors in a small kitchen can be sliding - to save space.

Irregular kitchen

These rooms usually have niches, spaces or ledges. The built-in wardrobe will perfectly fit into the recesses of the walls. You can put kitchen utensils in it, household appliances.

And also a place in a niche can be taken by a refrigerator or an unusual built-in bar counter. It is better to make a kitchen set for such a kitchen to order or choose an option in which the doors of the upper cabinets will rise vertically.

Rules for choosing furniture for small kitchens

1. One should be guided, first of all, by the question of comfort and only then by one's own taste preferences... For example, you should not buy a bulky sideboard you like from, which carries a minimum functional load, and at the same time clutters up an already small room.
2. First you need to consider all the existing ones. A kitchen plan drawn on paper will help a lot in this. One of the options is sure to be suitable for arranging a small kitchen.
3. In small rooms, shelves and other pieces of furniture look much better. And you should also choose the highest shelves that literally rest against the ceiling - they will help save space in the room.
4. It is recommended to rationally use all free corners by installing parts of the headset, household appliances and other important elements in them.

Refusal in order to save space. Unfortunately, ingrained bad smell will completely spoil the impression of even the most elegant kitchen. Without hood in small room there is no way to do it. Designers advise choosing compact models. If necessary, the hood can be hidden behind the front of the headset.

As you can see, a small kitchen is not yet a reason to be upset. With a competent and rational approach to the design of this room, you can get a comfortable and functional kitchen as a result.
