Features of the kitchen interior

In case you need to create a functional workplace in the kitchen in a minimalist style, look at the wallpaper in a restrained palette: white, graphite, sand, wood, cream or soft blue. For a challenging, somewhat aggressive kitsch or eclectic, pick up motley wallpaper in the kitchen with huge prints, applications, patterns. In a fashion muted cherry, burgundy and marsala,which are easy to combine with a peach, light pink color.

Modern trend reception is the decor of just one wall. It can accommodate a 3D photo print, other decorative components. The remaining walls should be left monotonous.

Fans of Scandinavian or classic style will love the bright colors of the kitchen. On a white background large prints, drawings and animals, insects, abstract objects will look great. For a provincial ensemble, try to choose wallpaper in a small pattern (cage, polka dots and other "geometry").

Any kitchen design should come not only from aesthetics and beauty, but also the practicality of the materials used on it. If the furniture is made of solid wood, it is necessarily coated with water-repellent mixtures, varnishes, resisting dirt, greasy stains, etc. If the flooring is washable (tile, laminate, etc.). Wallpapers should also be washable. The best choice will be non-woven, vinyl, fiberglass models.

We pay attention to light

In addition to wallpaper, the kitchen is important to organize the right lighting. It will depend on his performance, psycho-emotional state of a person, as well as the general atmosphere of the interior.The illumination rate in accordance with SNiP in kitchens should reach 150 Lx. Whatever wallpaper you choose (acrylic, non-woven, vinyl), the important secret of proper lighting will be multi-layered.

Place the lights in each zone that is required for working in the kitchen. Light sources should be directly in the place where you do the dishes, cook, have dinner.

In the planning of design projects, it is better to hang the lamps on the ceiling, in the center, and also around the perimeter of the entire kitchen. It will not create darkened corners, including on the walls. Buying beautiful wallpapers, it is important to present them profitably. Lighting will help you understand this issue. The use of a built-in spotlight, a laid-on luminaire, LED LED strips, busbars and pendant models will be relevant.

Arranging the lighting of the room, make sure that the general illumination could turn on parts, and not all at once. Do not save on light, especially for a dark kitchen. Garland or LEDs can create a stunning effect, imitation and even visualization along with 3D wallpaper, but from a practical point of view, such light will quickly land your eyesight.But in bright kitchens you can get by with a bright LED strip for the night time of the day and a central lighting fixture on the ceiling.
