Loft in a small apartment
Basic principles
- High ceilings and a large square - only in such a room it is possible to create an authentic industrial design. All space should resemble an industrial enterprise. If the room is small, it makes sense to combine it with a living room, a balcony. It is in such an apartment that the cuisine in the style of Loft looks more organic than.
- As a rule, designers pick up a dark palette. There are shades of gray, brown, black and white - this is a classic solution. However, one should not be limited to this range. In the interior you can safely add cheerful bright stains.
- Unlike many other directions, an open technique is welcomed in the industrial. Metal glitter only emphasizes the atmosphere.
Loft kitchen decoration
The main design of the design is deliberately rough finish: concrete floor, the same walls, inner lining with bricks. True, the floor of concrete can hardly be considered a good solution. Yet more often, designers choose more noble materials: parquet, laminate and porcelain stoneware. By the way, the latter can become an ideal imitation of concrete and stone, while it is distinguished by high wear resistance, which is especially relevant for the working area with an aggressive medium.
If the walls of the apartment are not really brick - it is not scary, you can create an artificial laying, and even do it yourself. At all, it is not necessary to draw up the whole perimeter in this way, it is enough to make one accent surface. It can be both a wall completely and a small plot, for example, a kitchen apron. What should I avoid? Brick masonry print wallpapers, they will reduce the interior. Ceiling, by the way, you can paint under concrete, decorate with wooden beams and even a decor in the form of wires or pipes, if the height of the walls allows. Do not want to overload the room? Leave it just white. Such a solution is relevant for not very high walls.
Furniture and machinery
Support furniture style will help support the furniture. And, first of all, this refers to the dining group. A large wooden table and chairs on metal legs of coarse shapes or bar counter combined with an angular headcard? And maybe bright soft armchairs and transparent plastic chairs from the 1970s? They will add an eccle mood. The degree of "industry" design can be adjusted in this way. That applies to the headset, the most preferred materials for its manufacture: wood, metal, plastic, glossy or matte. It does not need a decor at all: the doors should be as simple as possible, without stucco and panels.
The tabletop can be made of natural or artificial stone, wood or metal. And instead of suspended cabinets, you can install shelves. The main thing is to ensure order on them. The equipment is chosen both modern and stylized under retro - it all depends on the general concept. Aged furniture, a cooking surface and a retro refrigerator emphasize the history of the loft.
Decor and accessories
Loft kitchen design does not imply such plentiful decoration, such as Provence or Classic. However, accessories are still welcome.
First of all, these are paintings. Want to recreate the bohemian atmosphere? Hang the work and photos of modern artists in the style of postmodern and pop art. Posters, graphics are suitable. Or, in general, make an emphasis in the form of a picture on the wall. Only it should be a real work, and not replicated sticker.
Greens will help to revive and soften the interior. Excellent look both potted and cut flowers.
By the way, you can not hide and cutlery. Chrome-plated Reheling will emphasize the overall concept. Featured in the design of Industrial pays light. Good natural lighting is very important here. Therefore, windows are not hiding behind textiles, maximum roll-curtains. Artificial sources are important. The chandelier in the style of Contemporary will add the interior of Bohemian chic, for fans of eclectic - products from crystal. And if you do not want to mix the concept, you can equip a point lighting system.
Design khaki for small cuisine
It is believed that the Loft style in the kitchen interior is not for small premises. Alas, it is difficult to argue with it, because initially this is a design of spacious space. However, in the design of a small kitchen, you can still use several techniques that will help recreate the desired atmosphere.
- Brick wall can be painted in a light shade. So it will not "eat" the space at the expense of its print, but adds textures.
- Instead of one chandelier in the center of the room here you can use lamps around the perimeter.
- Buta pipes and other similar decor - not for small cuisine. In general, it is better to do a couple of paintings.
- Shelves instead of suspended cabinets will help create "air". And the location system will save.
