How to choose a style?

Today, the choice of style is not tied to area. At 9 sq. m you can create a loft or traditional, exquisite interior. Whatever style you choose, you need to adhere to 2 basic principles.

1. Less decor. Even in styles such as industrial and loft, which love active decoration, you need to be careful with accessories. Too much of them can lead to chaos and clutter.
2. Neutral colors. This will be discussed in detail below, and the basic rule in in this case– predominantly monochromatic in decoration and furniture, but colored and accentuating in accessories.

If this is a classic, then with elements of modernity - not so massive furniture, lack of volumetric stucco molding, predominantly light colors.

Minimalism is always a relevant solution for a small kitchen.

How to choose a headset?

Depending on the shape of the kitchen, the optimal and rational way arrangement of modules, equipment, and other furniture. Always start with kitchen set. It is the largest and most central piece of any kitchen space.

• For a square room, a linear one is suitable. Then the proportions will not be violated, and on the remaining area you can install a full-fledged dining area.

Corner set saves space in a small kitchen of 9 square meters. m.

• For a rectangular and too optimal solution, a linear, double-row (parallel) arrangement of modules would be. With this layout balcony block usually found on a smaller wall.

Design of a small kitchen with a balcony in a modern style

For a kitchen of 9 square meters. m remains topical issue about space optimization. The main criteria to be followed when choosing the design and configuration of a kitchen unit are:

• functionality and spaciousness. For big family You can consider the option of high upper modules (mezzanine) under the ceiling.

Small kitchen 9 sq.m., combined with a loggia

• compactness. This area is better than 6 square meters, but when arranging it requires the same approach as when decorating a small kitchen.

Working triangle rule

Invented with the aim of rationally organizing the work process in the kitchen. Convenient location three main functional elements– sinks, stoves and refrigerators will save the housewife’s energy and time.

Remember the rule that the stove or oven should not be close to the refrigerator. Minimum distance-60 cm.

Ideas for organizing a dining area

For the remaining space, a dining area option is selected.

Set with island-dining area

• If free space a little will do folding table or window sill table.

• You can move the dining area to the balcony or living room.

• With a compact arrangement of the set, you can organize a dining room in the kitchen with a spacious dining table.

Color design features

The modern interior features a light palette. This color scheme is optimal from the point of view visual increase space. The main thing is to choose the right shade.

• A white kitchen will look great with good natural light.

White - perfect solution For Mediterranean style, Scandinavian, minimalism.

If the windows face shadow side, then such a design will create a gloomy mood.

• Those who love bright colors in the interior can choose several contrasting or monochrome combinations.

It is permissible to use no more than 3 colors in one room.

One of modern trends The kitchen design includes a multi-colored set. For example, a white top and a bright blue or green bottom. Another design option is to paint one of the walls. If you are afraid to work with colors, then always create a neutral background, and then apply a bright palette on it in moderation.

You should be careful with colored wallpaper with large and 3D patterns, because... This design visually reduces the space. If you want to decorate one of the walls with a picture, then let it be a perspective image that seems to extend the space.

Proper lighting and appropriate lighting design

An elegant chandelier with symmetrical shades, many arms, candle-shaped bulbs, etc. will suit a classic interior. However, you should not choose a chandelier with textile elements, because... V kitchen area it's impractical.

IN industrial style A chandelier reminiscent of an industrial lamp or street lamp would be appropriate.

Another point is the uniform distribution of lighting. Create the right shadows required proportions and hide unattractive parts of the room. To do this, it is necessary to install not only the main chandelier, but also lighting for the working and dining areas. In some cases the best solution maybe split the main lighting into several spotlights.

We increase the room due to the area of ​​the loggia

Balcony and loggia should not be confused. The possibility of redevelopment and real expansion of the kitchen area depends on the fundamental difference.

The loggia is part of the premises and has only one open side. Balcony open from three sides and is designed for a certain load.

You cannot demolish the wall bordering the balcony!

In the case of a loggia, the situation is simpler, but before starting manipulations with the partition, the actions are coordinated with the BTI and other institutions.

You can demolish the window and door block, leaving part of the wall. A tabletop is installed on top for a bar counter or an extension of the working surface of the set.

A demolished block can be replaced arched opening and organize a dining area here or move the kitchen set to the loggia.

Not every apartment can boast spacious kitchen. Most often, homeowners in houses built in the Soviet Union have to look for ways to expand the available space and make it more functional. Designers are often faced with requests to develop a project for a small kitchen with an area of ​​6 or 9 meters. Most often this is a square room correct form, which with the right approach can be made comfortable and convenient.

Kitchen 9 sq. meters - design project

The desire to have a spacious cooking area is understandable, but many believe that a small kitchen can have its advantages. The owners of such apartments, who have properly organized the space, believe that a small kitchen is great option, since all the necessary items and devices are in close proximity to each other. The housewife does not need to walk meters between the sink and the stove, which only speeds up the cooking process.

There may also be disadvantages, but from them competent planning easy to get rid of. Before decorating your own apartment with a small kitchen, it is recommended to look ready-made design projects to ensure that even 9 meters can be used to the maximum.

What can you give up in a small kitchen?

During the renovation process, you should first decide which areas can be safely transferred from the kitchen to other rooms. The traditional idea is to avoid the lunch group. The kitchen will serve as a place for cooking, and the family will have lunch and dinner in the dining room or living room.

In the room you can successfully place a massive table and chairs that will be in harmony with all the other furniture. If you need to organize a place for eating in the kitchen, set up a small bar counter and use high stools, which simply slide under it when not in use.

Choosing a set for a small kitchen

A kitchen of 9 meters is, as a rule, a small square room in which it is enough to simply place everything you need. All you have to do is pick the right set. Designers advise taking a closer look at corner options. These cabinets are the most spacious. They can easily hide all kitchen utensils and other items behind their doors. useful little things. It is better to avoid glass cabinets, giving preference to closed hanging cabinets and drawers.

On a note. Choosing a ready-made set for a small kitchen is quite difficult. As a rule, difficulties arise with arranging cabinets, so you should not waste time contacting companies that manufacture kitchen furniture to order. A specialist will make a headset according to individual parameters. Such a kitchen will be convenient for the housewife.

Household appliances in a small kitchen

On the issue of acquisition household appliances should also be done responsibly. If the dining group can be easily moved to the living room area, then the appliances should remain strictly in the kitchen. The exception is the refrigerator, which can be successfully placed in the adjacent hallway, if space allows. For all other large household appliances for the kitchen, it is better to choose built-in ones. This way, items will be hidden under the countertops and will look less bulky. In this case, the upper part of the table will serve as a full-fledged work area.

You should give up the desire to place a washing machine in the kitchen. If there are no other places for such equipment, then it, just like dishwasher, hidden under the countertop. If desired, its body can be covered with the front of a cabinet.

All small equipment- multicooker, microwave oven, mixer, juicer - placed on countertops. Items that are not used every day can be stored on the top shelves of cabinets. There they will not gather dust and take up precious space.

Interior styles for a small kitchen

A small space can be decorated in any memorable style. Designers advise choosing as much as possible simple options, which involve a minimum of details that distract from the main purpose of things. More detailed options style solutions for the kitchen 9 meters are discussed in the table.

Interior style suitable for small spaces	Characteristic features inherent in the direction	Design Tips
Minimalism	Minimalism is the most laconic style, which is used for decoration interior spaces apartments Its characteristic features are the absence of flashy details, excessive decorations, and contrasts. A minimalist kitchen is simple and functional.	Use furniture in soothing colors. Give preference to straight lines. Additional parts such as watches or lighting, choose the most strict ones. A variety of materials can be used for finishing. You can put a layer of paint in a neutral shade on the walls. For the floor, tiles would be an ideal option.
High tech	High-tech style involves decorating the space in a modern style. Household appliances fit perfectly into such a set. Pretentious details will be unnecessary.	It is best to use original metal handles, shelves or glass inserts, where appropriate. You can diversify the room with lighting. It is better to choose colors for interior decoration that are cool, but not dark.
Modern	Modern Art Nouveau style is always relevant and noble design, which can be easily implemented in a kitchen with an area of ​​9 m. characteristic- a combination of bright colors and the presence of decorative finishes.	To embody modernity, you can use bright facades, original lamps, massive cornices and heavy curtains.
Japanese style	This direction is characterized simple forms, strict lines. IN Japanese style play on contrasts and combine dark wood with light. This interior is also appropriate in a small kitchen.	To create a Japanese-style kitchen, choose furniture made from natural materials. Wooden cabinets, tables and chairs look great. You can complement them with sticks on the walls. If the furniture is dark, then the walls and floor must be light.

Designers name several directions that, on the contrary, should be abandoned when designing small rooms. For example, a 9-meter kitchen should not be decorated in a loft style, since it implies the presence high ceilings, large windows and open wide space. No need to get carried away by abundance small parts, which can only visually reduce the room. For this reason, country or Provence styles are inappropriate.

Colors in the interior of a small kitchen

Choosing a color for the kitchen is difficult task, especially if the room is small. Designers advise first choosing the main direction, and only then placing accents. For small kitchens, three options are considered the most suitable.

1. Decorated entirely in light colors. The kitchen set can be in harmony with the color of the walls, provided that a neutral color scheme is chosen. It can be beige, milky, peach, light green. For rooms with good lighting and windows facing sunny side, you can choose cool shades, for example, lilac or pale blue.

   

2. Contrasting design. For those who like experimenting, designers offer the following option. The facades of the upper cabinets are made in light colors, and the lower ones, on the contrary, are made in dark colors. Not only classic is appropriate black and white combination, but also softer options, for example, milk and coffee.

   

3. Bright shades. The set itself can serve as an accent in the kitchen. Many apartment owners choose bright facades - red, green apple, turquoise, orange. The walls in this case should be neutral, but not necessarily white. For example, if you choose a kitchen set the color of fresh grass, then the walls can be in the same color scheme, but 4-5 shades paler. In this case, no additional accents will be needed.

   

It is better to avoid dark colors in interior design in small areas. These shades will visually make the room smaller, which is unlikely to please the residents.

A small kitchen space should not limit your imagination. This is an option where apartment owners can really express themselves and demonstrate their design talents. Experience shows that on small area You can make a truly original kitchen.

The first advice that experts call is use of window space. Don't neglect wide window sill. It can be transformed into a tabletop. This will be either a dining area or a work space. In this case, the window sill can serve as a direct continuation of the headset. If desired, you can even install a sink in it. This technique will allow you to use every meter of space.

If the kitchen is very small, but you don’t want to give up the dining area, then you should consider remodeling the apartment. A 9-meter kitchen can be successfully combined with a living room and get a spacious dining room, in the center of which there will be a table and chairs, and along one of the walls there will be a kitchen set with all the utensils and appliances. This method is good because it expands the list of possible styles for interior design.

With the right approach, a 9-meter kitchen can be quite functional and beautiful at the same time. It is only important to take into account all the advice experienced designers and those people who designed the space on their own, and express their own individuality.

The balcony adjacent to the kitchen can become a cozy place for romantic summer evenings with a cup of tea, an extension of the dining area, or a conveniently organized pantry.

Without redevelopment with a door

In order to fit a balcony into the kitchen space, it is not at all necessary to resort to radical measures and demolish walls. It is enough to create a cozy and beautifully decorated space that will become a continuation of the design of the main room.

When renovating, you need to carefully consider what exactly needs to be placed in the set where cereals, vegetables and dishes will be stored. At the same time, it’s time to decide what role the balcony will play in the new project. Without demolishing the partitions, it can be assigned several functions:

• a pantry that will absorb excess dishes and accessories;

Photo examples square kitchen 9 sq m with balcony:

Predominantly light colors are used for the interior design of a 9 sq. m kitchen with a balcony

For emphasis, you can use various accessories and dishes.

The sofa will harmoniously complement the interior of the recreation area

• summer (and when reliable insulation, heating system and winter) dining room;

• bins where vegetables are stored.

In this case, the kitchen and dining set will undergo some changes. Perhaps the bulky refrigerator will move to the balcony. Or you will put a couple of tall cabinets there, into which rarely used but seasonally necessary jars will move, Food processors, blenders, etc. It's up to you to decide.

Beige furniture in such a kitchen gives comfort and tenderness.

White trim expands the space. Good option for 9 squares with a balcony.

With redevelopment

If you decide to integrate a balcony into your living space, you need to make sure that all changes are properly documented.

Most often, it is enough to simply remove the balcony block, leaving the base of the wall as it is. If something happens, you can return the traditional appearance of the kitchen at any time.

In this option, the rest of the wall can act as a bar counter or table foot. The window opening can be designed in the form of an arch using a plasterboard frame.

If you want complete unity with the outside space, then you can remove the remains of the wall, insulate the balcony and combine these two zones. Please note that when laying heated floors from below balcony slab In cold weather, condensation will appear. To avoid this, contact heating engineers who will help you calculate the thickness of the insulation to be placed under the heating system.

Most often, the dining area is moved to the balcony. It is convenient to place a table and a soft corner here. Thick curtains will help create a feeling of intimacy and comfort.

But you can do it differently. By moving the technological part of the kitchen to the window, you free up most of it to accommodate a full-fledged sofa and TV. Thus, a kind of mini-studio is formed. During a crowded party, the sofa in the kitchen can serve as an excellent additional sleeping place.

If the apartment has enough free space, then you can organize a relaxation area on the balcony.

Kitchen decoration

It is convenient to place the set in such an area in a line or L-shape. This will make it possible to arrange a fairly spacious dining area.

On 9 square meters there is an opportunity to get away from high wall cabinets or abandon them altogether if the balcony takes over some of the kitchen utensils. This will make the room much more spacious, because... at eye level you will have more space. Some simple shelves and roof rails will allow you to keep everything you need for work at hand. And the kitchen will be filled with a feeling of spaciousness.

Fill the lower cabinets drawers. They are much more functional than stationary shelves. It is convenient to use modern tandem boxes. They are made from thin but incredibly durable sheet metal. In addition, they are able to travel 90-100%. Thanks to simple dividers, you can easily store glass and earthenware in these drawers.

Take a closer look at carousel systems for corner modules. They allow you to make the most of your deep cabinet. With a slight movement of the hand necessary items they simply “float” into the hands of the owner.

With this filling, you won’t lose anything in your closets, you always have everything in sight, and you can perfectly organize your interior space.

A corner sink is good for saving space. But it's not the best for your back. the best option. Give preference to models with a wing. Turn it towards the corner, and place the bowl along the module. With the sink in this position you will feel much better.

There should be enough space on both sides of the stove so that you do not burn your hands while working. A minimum of 40 cm of cutting surface should separate the heat hob from the refrigerator. Otherwise, the cooling radiators will not be able to cope with their task, and the compressor will fail prematurely.

Zoning is done using lighting, furniture placement, and accents on the wall. The room is not spacious enough to break it up visually using different floor coverings or different ceiling levels. Enough to do color accent in the form of a fresco, photo wallpaper with deep perspective, mirror tiles.

As you can see, a kitchen with a balcony is an inexhaustible abyss of ideas for creative people. The main thing is to follow the principles of ergonomics, leaving enough space for passage between all zones.

The kitchen is a special place in any apartment, but it is not always possible to arrange it the way you would like. Most often this is due to lack of space. Corner kitchens for 9 sq. meters, photos of the interiors of which can be viewed on the website, at the right approach can be made cozy and spacious. Where should the renovation begin, what rearrangement secrets will help visually expand the space?

Color solutions

Few people know, but half the success of the interior as a whole depends on color. Visually increase the kitchen space of 9 square meters. meters will help warm shades. Walls in sand, yellow, light green, pink, and blue colors will make the kitchen larger and more comfortable. Pastel colors improve digestion and stimulate appetite. All shades of blue, turquoise and lilac will help you lose excess weight and keep yourself in excellent shape. Light green will bring spring freshness and cleanliness to the interior.

When choosing a color, it is worth considering the location of the windows relative to the cardinal directions.

For north windows All warm shades of peach and pink are suitable. The south windows show cool whites, grays and blue colors. When decorating the walls corner kitchen for 9 sq. meters, horizontal dim stripes or small patterns are allowed.

It is advisable to select a furniture set in the same color scheme with a difference of several tones. An excellent solution would be to combine two colors that are in harmony with each other. The walls of coffee-au-lait color combine perfectly with lacquered wooden furniture. In this case, the interior looks very rich. The marble or marble set also looks stylish. marble chips. The surface of the furniture should be glossy. It is easy to wipe clean if it gets dirty, and also has an advantageous glare when it hits sun rays. Glass and mirror inserts are also welcome, metal elements.

Secrets of decorating a cramped kitchen

For a corner kitchen of 9 sq. It is important to use space rationally, avoiding clutter. It is desirable that the interior be based on the following principles.

1. The ceiling should ideally be plain white, suspended or suspended. Choose a color two shades darker than the walls to increase the height of the room.
2. The work area can be highlighted with spotlights, and the dining area above the table with chandeliers or sconces.
3. The floor should have a small pattern, since the presence of a large pattern will visually reduce the area.
4. It is desirable that the form furniture set was L-shaped. Please note that the furniture is placed along a blank wall with a turn to cover a large area.

It is also necessary to correctly position the equipment taking into account communications. The stove should be located close to the window for better ventilation. It would be appropriate to place a hood above it, and next to it a tabletop for cutting food and preparing dishes. Convenient if geyser will be located above the sink to regulate the water temperature when washing dishes.

Next to washing machine There should be a laundry basket, and next to the dishwasher there should be a cupboard for dishes. But in any case, it is advisable to purchase a furniture set monolithic and with built-in appliances. Many mezzanines reaching almost to the ceiling will allow you to distribute all the kitchen utensils.

In a 9 m kitchen, the design does not allow for a massive soft corner, since it will take up all the free space. But chairs with high backs will look very harmonious. The table should not weigh down the room, so avoid thick carved legs. Give preference to plastic and steel elements. Glass table – interesting solution, but not very practical for the cooking area.

For 9 sq. meters, a compact, functional kitchen corner is also suitable. The window sill can be replaced with a tabletop or converted into a folding table. If it is not possible to take the refrigerator to another room (a niche in the hallway or on the balcony), it should be placed in a corner opposite the door. With its massiveness, height and brilliance, it will significantly increase the space.

Adjacent to the corner kitchen of 9 sq. meters balcony will help radically change its space. You can simply remove the doors, leaving a regular rectangular opening, or replace it with an arch. If balcony door connected to the window, you can remove both structures, getting an excellent bar counter from the window sill. If you enlarge the corner kitchen due to the balcony, you can abandon the solid furniture set, use open shelves or do without them altogether. The window sill can serve as a continuation of the furniture.

Particular attention in a small corner kitchen of 9 square meters. meters is worth paying for the bar counter. Modern fashion dictates its presence in a variety of forms. In terms of functionality, the counter replaces a full-fledged dining area. Its location can be a corner, dividing the room in half or replacing a window sill.

Expanding the space

There are also many creative solutions for a nine-meter corner kitchen that can visually raise the ceiling and expand the room.

• You can place shelves and cabinets in a stepped or checkerboard pattern. Alternating items in height will also look stylish.
• Colored lighting of certain areas will bring aesthetic pleasure and make a corner kitchen of 9 square meters. meters very convenient. Such lighting is mounted around the perimeter in the area of ​​wall cabinets, in open shelves and countertops. This helps to illuminate the immediate area for cooking, washing, and washing. Colors should be selected from classic white to those that suit the overall tone.
• It is very fashionable and profitable to use metal elements in the kitchen. These can be chrome inserts, fittings, and surfaces. They are very practical and effective.

It’s good when the interior of a corner kitchen is 9 square meters. m are dominated by glass elements. These can be shelves, facades, countertops. For these purposes, high-strength quality materials. The front door also takes up space, so you can either simply remove it (leaving a rectangular or arched opening) or replace it with a sliding or accordion door.

Kitchen interior at 9 square meters does not allow room for imagination. And yet there are harmonious options that are suitable for such a small size. Let's look at the main ones.

• A classic interior implies restraint and conciseness. This can be a strict wooden set with facade milling or moldings. We recommend a kitchen design of 9 square meters. meters to build on the use of glossy ceramic tiles. The dominant one here is White color. Built-in appliances are hidden behind the facades, saving space and not drawing attention to themselves.
• Kitchen design in contemporary style is, in fact, a new classic style. A minimum of decoration and decoration, comfort and practicality are the motto of this direction. Colors used: white, grey, black and wood.
• Modern kitchen design is preferred by balanced and conflict-free people. That is why all furniture has a semicircular, oval (streamlined) shape. This kitchen has many useful mechanical devices. Despite small size, this room will be multifunctional. The color range is represented by many shades of different brightness.
• The design of a corner kitchen in eco-style involves the use of only natural materials. These are wood, glass, metal, textiles. The color scheme and design resemble natural environment. This corner kitchen looks very cozy and comfortable.
• The most optimal for a small corner kitchen of 9 m is the minimalist style. This smooth walls, furniture without decorative elements, only necessary equipment, absence small items and details. All this expands the space and organizes work in the kitchen.

To decorate a corner kitchen of 9 square meters. meters, bright and discreet accessories are suitable. For example, two small paintings, Wall Clock or a vase of flowers. Many people from trips abroad They bring magnets and happily hang them on the refrigerator. Designers strongly recommend not to do this, since many small elements visually reduce the size of the kitchen. A very fashionable and creative option is a chalk board that will delight both children and adults: you can draw a funny picture on it or quickly write down a recipe you heard on TV.

Loft

Innovation and antiques are perfectly combined here. Bright colors you can’t see it in this style, but there are natural shades like wood or brick, so the finish is quite rough.

Kitchen layout 9 square meters

It is necessary to take into account the shape of the room, the passage of the communications system, the location and size of doors and windows.

In addition, an important aspect is taking into account adjacent premises. In a studio apartment, for example, the kitchen area can become part of the living room. There may also be a combined dining area, or it is possible to move it to next room. This will free up space for installing the maximum amount of kitchen furniture and appliances.

Advice! If the dining area is moved to the living room, then as an alternative to the kitchen, including the definition of additional working area, is perfect, which is more compact and will accommodate small company over a cup of coffee or tea.

Corner layout

In this case, the rules of ergonomics are fully observed, the space is used to the maximum, allowing you to install a sufficient number of necessary cabinets for storing utensils, equipment, and a work surface.

The main aspect remains freeing up the corner opposite the headset, in which it is convenient to place.

Instead of a standard table, they often install one, which is located in the middle of the room. It can not only replace a dining corner, but also be extra space for storing kitchen items.

However, most often such an island is quite small and is intended for only two or three people. To save space, you can use a peninsula. It is attached on one side to the wall and performs the same functions as an island.

Linear layout

This involves placing the kitchen unit along one wall.

It should be borne in mind that most often a small number of elements can be installed in this way, so for those who need a lot of storage space or a lot of equipment, this option is not suitable. Linear layout requires compactness and installation of smart systems.

However, a huge advantage is the freeing up of space for installing a comfortable kitchen corner. Dinner Zone will turn out to be roomy, designed for more of people.

Linear layout can also be parallel. This perfect option for walk-through rooms or those with a balcony. In addition, for an elongated room this is also a winning option, allowing you to install everything you need.

However, there is not always room for a dining table. For an elongated room, this can be a small portable table, and for a square one, you can install an island in the center.

U-shaped layout

This form of kitchen set will allow you to install as many household appliances and storage systems as possible. The “working triangle” rule works great here. This option is especially suitable for elongated rooms.

However, only when there is no need for the location of the dining table. In such a situation, it is better to move it to the living room.

For square rooms there is room to install an island along with small ones. They can be pushed under the countertop, resulting in more free space for cooking.

Wall decoration and color choice

The kitchen has its own characteristics, which are extremely important when choosing finishes.

They are of the following nature:

• High humidity;
• Mechanical influences;
• Frequent temperature changes;
• Drops of fat and other dirt settling during cooking.

From this we can conclude that the finishing of the kitchen should not only be moisture resistant and withstand temperature changes. It must be cleaned well to maintain its original appearance.

It is also important, especially for floors, that the coating can withstand heavy and sharp drops. Most often, waterproof or waterproof is chosen for the floor.

The walls can be transformed into any look, including painting.

With the help of finishing, you can perfectly create zoning, for example, a dining and working area. This is an excellent solution for combined . To do this, you can use different materials and choose different colors, including contrasting ones.

In general, the kitchen is 9 sq. m requires availability light shades. For the ceiling, white color is always relevant.

The floor covering should be darker, and contrast is allowed, which will make the ceilings visually higher.

The white palette can be present in all details. The image will become light and airy. This is especially true for rooms located on the north side.

Always in fashion, which combines with any other shade. In this case, it is excellent to highlight individual elements bright colors, including red, orange, yellow, green colors. You don’t need much; even bright upholstery on chairs or eye-catching curtains will suffice.

Advice! Contrasting combinations remain a popular trend. Moreover, it is best to use light colors for the top and bottom to increase the height of the room. dark colors for the lower tier. Make the background neutral or use natural colorful shades.

How to properly organize lighting

For small and medium-sized rooms, lighting is especially important. The more natural and artificial light there is, the more spacious the kitchen will be.

Large window openings are suitable to provide natural light. Bulky curtains from thick fabric It's better not to use it. Light, thin curtains, ideally transparent, are suitable. Often you can do without them altogether or install blinds.

The dining area can be highlighted with a bright, beautiful chandelier.

Built-in lights are suitable for the work area. Don't forget about the built-in lighting. The work surface, cabinets, shelves, niches will be perfectly emphasized by LED strip.

Advice! The light must be bright, but at the same time soft and warm so as not to hurt the eyes.

So, 9 sq.m. Not too little for the kitchen, but not too much either. For a large family, it is especially important to make the interior functional and visually expand the space. To do this, you should follow certain tips.

Light and neutral shades always visually expand the walls. White shelves will always be ideal in any style and design.
