Industrial style or loft
The origin of the style is associated with the conversion of industrial premises into residential. The brutality and a certain openness of style will appeal to those of the corresponding warehouse.
Industrial orientation requires the use of colors of cold shades and related materials.
In the decoration of the walls used real brickwork or:
- brick imitation;
- concrete;
- metal;
- glass blocks.
One of the advantages of industrial style is that engineering communications and electrical wiring are intentionally left open, which is very convenient when finishing the kitchen. Other features of the style are wide and very high, if possible to the floor, windows, matching ceilings, no curtains, or at least Roman curtains or curtains to the floor. In urban areas, the loft is best to take root in a penthouse or attic.

- wardrobes with glass doors;
- open shelves and racks;
- ware from transparent glass or stainless steel.
The latter material is generally applied in this style very widely.
Pay special attention to maximum interior lighting, which is also inherent in a loft.
Color palette
We associate the kitchen with cleanliness, so it is usually made light. Items of furniture and household appliances of light colors also do not look heavy.
Choose the colors and the corresponding design styles under the level of natural lighting. In bright sunlight all day long you can choose cold ones; in case of insufficient light it is better to stay in warm ones. The decision of the kitchen and adjacent rooms can be maintained in the same style or, on the contrary, carried out in contrast.
Those areas that are most dirty get light, not dark, so that traces of dirt are not so noticeable.
The room should be bright, but not excessive, so as not to resemble a bathroom or bathroom. Even in the white kitchen should be dark accents. In the kitchen design of small apartments, the snow-white color of the ceiling is preferred, and the dark colors should be used to a minimum so as not to reduce the already small space.
return to menu ↑What plan to choose?
The mutual arrangement of the stove, sink and refrigerator in the kitchen should be as convenient as possible. In the ideal case, a triangle is formed during the layout with the vertices located in the easy access area.
The layout itself depends on the size of the room. Possible options for the location of cabinets and household appliances:
If space allows, install a worktop-island; in kitchens with a linear layout, you can position a stove or a sink on it. The island is multifunctional, here you can arrange a dishwasher, a small refrigerator or a wine cabinet, to use as a bar.
The dining table with all the attributes is located in the center of the dining room or slightly to the side, with a lack of space in an angular way or near one of the walls. For single people or couples, an island can serve as a place to eat.
Cottage and apartment: is there a difference?
Unlike cottages, in most city apartments there is no panoramic windows and the apparent separation of the kitchen into the kitchen and dining room, or, respectively, the working and dining area. At best, in the apartment there is a union of the kitchen from the living room.
In suburban housing opportunities to show designer imagination more. There is often also a terrace for dining in nature during the warm season.
If you stopped at the version with a separate dining room, use the following features to divide the kitchen space into functional areas:
- bar counter, island or just a small height partition with openings;
- wide arch with columns on the sides;
- transparent sliding partition;
- partition with a wide opening;
- finishing the floor with different materials;
- arrangement at the border of furniture.
Registration of zones should be subject to a single concept.
Do not forget about lighting. If the working area is enough for a bright main light and furniture lighting, then for the dining room you need to think about the soft, muted.
If in the apartment you can use artificial materials, then in the cottage, use mainly natural materials for decoration in order to preserve the spirit of closeness to nature. Ideal kitchen furniture country house - wooden or wicker.
Urban and country view from the window and lifestyle vary greatly, so the potential solution is different here.
Apartment fit:
- modern;
- minimalism;
- techno;
- loft.
In the cottage there are fewer restrictions, almost any design will fit in here, but all sorts of rustic or nature-related styles look most organically. In both cases, the appropriate classic or ethnic motifs.
We considered only some of the possible options for kitchen design. But whatever style was, remember the main principle - taste and harmony.
