Tips for choosing a custom kitchen

In your plans, the upcoming kitchen renovation? Then it is worth considering the option of buying kitchen furniture made to order. Such furniture will be unique, original and executed in accordance with the required dimensions.

To begin with, decide in what style the kitchen will be designed. Always topical and fashionable is the classic. Such it makes clear shapes and lines, strict proportions and restrained colors. Surfaces of such furniture are smooth, sustained in a calm color palette and containing elements of carving. The facades of traditional kitchens are usually wooden, but if this option is too expensive for you, instead of a natural array you can use laminated MDF, which by some characteristics even surpass the tree.

Those who are respectful of the past, but strive for the future, it is worth paying attention to the Art Nouveau style. It allows you to use everything for experiments - materials, shapes, colors. To produce such an elite kitchen, MDF, metal, artificial or natural stone, plastic, glass can be made to order.

For those who gravitate towards a naturalistic style, the country style is appropriate. He suggests that the interior uses a large number of objects. It can be cabinets, cabinets, tables, cupboards. Furniture facades are necessarily wooden.

Well, choosing a style of furniture, it is necessary to think about its layout. It is advisable to start planning the kitchen from scratch: in this case there will be no problems with the selection of equipment and furniture. When organizing the space, an important factor is the competent placement of the working triangle, consisting of a "cooking surface, a refrigerator, a sink" - its proper placement to provide convenience when working in the kitchen. Arrangement of furniture can be of these types:

- Linear (furniture is installed along the wall of the room);

- Double-row or U-shaped (along the 2 walls of the room and along the window opening);

- Corner;

- "Peninsular" (touching one end of the wall of the room, the desktop is located in the center of the room, all other objects are around the kitchen table);

5. "Island" (the desk (stove or sink) is located in the middle of the room and is surrounded by all the rest of the furniture).

When planning is chosen, it is necessary to decide how high the cabinets will be. It is advisable to do this even at the initial stage of repair, since the height of the pedestal determines the height of the laying of the tile. The height of the lower pedestals is typical - 85-95 cm. The working surface should be installed at a convenient height for you - so you do not have to bend or rise above the desk. The successful height of the apron, the distance between the hanging cabinets and the lower curbstones, is considered to be 45-55 cm. If the height of the upper sections is high, it is recommended to make an apron of 45 cm - so that you can use the upper shelves of the hanging cabinets.

At the same time, two groups of outlets should be envisaged: for equipment that is not permanently switched off from the network, and rarely used. Install the sockets should not be too low above the countertop, it is better to understand their centimeters by 5-10.

The table top should be a jay to high temperatures, household "chemistry" and mechanical influences. Plastic and artificial stone - the most optimal materials for the countertop. These are beautiful, reliable and durable materials. True, the stone countertop is easily scratched (in this respect, the plastic is more stable), but it can also be easily repaired by simply polishing it.

To work in your kitchen was a pleasure, you should take care of the choice of quality furniture components - cargo, galleries, carousels, rails, drawers for garbage, baskets, etc.
