A must-have attribute of a modern kitchen is a fridge. Usually it occupies an impressive part of the room.

The entire model range of corner refrigerators has climate class A and above, which is an indicator of high reliability and quality of assembly.
Such models have high power, excellent thermal insulation and, as a result, minimal power consumption.

Design solutions
The high-tech style is ideal for the use of refrigerators: the combination of the steel surface of household appliances and wooden furniture, diluted with bright "stains" of bar counters, lamps, stylish dishes, is always in trend. If the decision to purchase a corner refrigerator was caused by the desire to free up space in the kitchen, then you can use some more design techniques for this purpose:
- eliminate the dark colors of the furniture; beige and milky tones will visually increase the room,
- drawings (on the walls, furniture) horizontal - give the visual effect of stretching the room, and vertical - lengthening,
- the use of multiple sources of illumination contribute to the illusion of space,
- it is possible to place shelves not only at the bottom of the walls, but also at the top,
- a great solution for a small kitchen - a bar counter (the need to purchase a large table disappears),
- It is preferable to use the system of "smart" doors: leaving and sliding.
It's time to make a revolution in your apartment.
The corner refrigerator is exactly that heavy artillery,which will destroy stereotypes and will reclaim for you the free space in your favorite kitchen.
