Owners of small apartments have to apply various tricks to create the most comfortable living conditions for themselves. At the same time, one does not want to sacrifice beauty for the sake of functionality. This problem is especially acute when considering the layout of kitchens. No matter how tiny the room is, it is necessary to find a place on it for a lot of things, from household appliances to kitchen utensils. When considering the arrangement of furniture, pay close attention to detail. This will add to the business even the most modest piece of space.
To make it easier to manipulate square centimeters, divide the kitchen into zones. The first zone is the
workplace. This includes everything related to cooking. In the
sanitary zone we have a sink for washing products and utensils, as well as a container for waste. There is a separate area for eating.
Layouts of small kitchens solve one, but very important task - to make access to each zone as convenient as possible. Moving from the workplace to the sink, and then to the table should not cause difficulties. Usually, two proven circuits are used: angular and U-shaped.
The angular layout of small kitchens is called so because the nodal point is the sanitary zone, located just in the corner. From it, cabinets follow in one direction, and kitchen appliances in the other. It turns out some similarities with the letter "G".
With the available area of about 8 square meters, you can try to implement a U-shaped arrangement. This option involves the distribution of furniture and household appliances along three walls. The distance between the opposite panels should be at least one and a half meters.
The next trick to planning small kitchens is to use custom furniture. For example, bedside tables are made several already familiar 60 centimeters. It seems to many that spaciousness suffers from this. In fact, such furniture makes you think about the usefulness of certain things, preventing the appearance of unnecessary trash.
A similar approach applies to the choice of kitchen appliances. Get rid of large models, it is better to invest in modern compact devices with multifunctionality.
Layouts of small kitchens require original thinking. Give up standard things. If you need a table, then let it be folding or folding, when one side is attached to the wall and can be folded to save space. The surface of the window sill will completely replace the countertop, you just need to build it up and strengthen it. We remove the radiator, instead of it the "warm" floor will cope with the heating of the room.
A detailed layout of the layout of small kitchens will help to avoid miscalculations during the arrangement. Everything is marked on it: where the sink will be located, the hob, in which direction the doors of the cabinets will open. Actively use various rotary and sliding elements in furniture, light hanging shelves, hanging cabinets.
Carried away by the rational side of things, do not forget about the "appearance" of the room. Light shades, technological materials, metal racks - these details give the interior lightness, visually expand the space, eliminating the feeling of crowding.
