Anna Novopoltseva Architect and Designer Dina Udaltsova shared its recommendations for the choice of household appliances, decoration and arrangement of small-sized cuisine.
1 Make mezzani (second tier on the cabinets)
Designer Dina Udaltsova and the architect Anna Novopoltseva converge in the opinion that in a small kitchen, high cabinets can be made to the ceiling and add them to the mezzanine (second tier). There you can store not only kitchen utensils, but also other household items.
2 Choose a mini refrigerator
If there is no place for high refrigerator, and you have a small family for which constant cooking is not required, think about the mini-fridge, embedded under the tabletop. This opinion adheres to Dina Udaltsova. The designer adds that it will greatly save the place, and the embedded technique will make the interior with stylish and modern.
3 and a narrow dishwasher
"I believe that a dishwasher should be in any kitchen," says Dina Udaltsova. - You can place a narrow dishwasher, 45 cm wide. A very small dishwasher can be even hidden under the sink. "
4 Think about the removable hob
Anna Novopoltsev architect recommends removable cooking panels for very small kitchens. They have one burner, but such appliances are very much saved on the tabletop - you can put when you need to cook a dish, and the rest of the time to remove into the closet or hang onto the railing. From such equipment, you can select the model Paseco S.I.a.m. Induction Cooker, as well as IKEA "Tillea".
If one burner is still too little, choose a two-door panel, - Recommendation Dina Udaltsova.
5 Order an overhead countertop on washing
Anna Novopoltseva recommends expanding the space of the working surface - to think over the invoice countertop, which, if necessary, close the sink. This is relevant when it remains very little free space on the working surface.
6 Select Compact Spirit
There are models of brass cabinets 45 centimeters high. They will fit even on a small kitchen.
Designer Dina Utyaltsova:
Some brass cabinets combine the features of two devices: oven and microwave, which is very convenient and will save space. But they are expensive. I advise you to buy a separately embedded microwave and oven - it will be saved.
7 Use the dishes in one style
It is not necessary to litter a small kitchen with different in color and shaped dishes, cans for bulk products and spices if you plan to put them on the worktop or open shelves. It is better to choose objects in a single stylist.
Architect Anna Novopoltseva: "Choose glass or ceramic jars for storing bulk products. It is not only convenient, but also aesthetic, they will fulfill the role of decor. "
8 Hang the lamp over the dining table
In the kitchen, even small, there must be several light scenarios - it is necessary. It is necessary to think over the overall light, decorative, as well as the backlight of the working area. In small kitchens, you should not give up suspended lamps above the dining table - they will give comfort and create an emphasis. Anna Novopoltseva says this.
9 Use functional decor
Do not refuse the decor on the small kitchen. At the same time, it can become objects that will also perform a certain function, such as chairs or handles.
Architect Anna Novopoltseva:
Now the eclectics and introducing art in the interiors, in particular, even small ones. The use of vintage interior items, the decor will be more than appropriate, will bring history and individuality. For example, you can choose vintage handles or use chairs of different styles, times and execution. And it will not only tribute fashion, but also ecology - when we re-use, it would seem that we have learned your age thing, reducing consumption.
