Photos of kitchen sets. Kitchen sets
Updating the interior, the first thing everyone usually strives for is the choice of a new kitchen set. Made to order or purchased from ready-made furniture brings coziness and comfort to the house. Right organized space, serving for cooking, becomes the key to a good mood.
Variety of forms
Traditionally, kitchen sets come in several forms. These are sets that are located along one wall and corner varieties. Corner kitchen sets are divided into L-shaped (when furniture occupies space along two walls located at an angle of 90 ° to each other), U-shaped (furniture is located along three adjacent walls). There is a type of "island", in this case L-shaped or U-shaped furniture complemented by a cooking zone or sink in the center.
It must be taken into account that U-shape permissible if the area allows you to leave at least 2 meters between parallel rows of furniture. And the “island” generally requires a space of at least 35 sq.m. You can verify this by looking at photos of kitchen sets.
Complete set of kitchen sets
The complete set is designed to make it easier for a person to stay in the kitchen, to provide him with trouble-free cooking. Even a small kitchen set must have certain components. Firstly, this is a food storage area. Secondly, a zone for washing and drying dishes. Thirdly, a place for cutting products.
In a small kitchen, it is better to exclude idle spaces. The design of a kitchen set should productively include every centimeter in the work. For all the little things, their place should be provided, then they can be easily and quickly found. It’s good if even a narrow gap is occupied by something useful, for example, a bottle holder, which, despite its modest size, can hold quite a lot of items. When arranging the kitchen near the sink, it is better to place dishwasher, this technique will avoid unnecessary drops on the floor.
Facade
Sets the tone for the whole look of the kitchen set, not its internal content, but appearance. Therefore, when you need to choose a kitchen set, you need to take into account that the same, in fact, furniture can be equipped with different front panels. And you need to choose them, based on your own preferences and wallet size. There are several options for facades according to the material: solid wood, chipboard, MDF, glass, plastic, their combination. Modern processing materials allows them to withstand high temperatures, humidity, exposure chemical substances during cleaning. Each variety has its own characteristics.
The wooden facade, as in the photo, corresponds to the classic style of kitchen sets. Sometimes it is produced in the Art Nouveau style. In any case, natural wood guarantees coziness and a calm atmosphere. Such facades are divided into solid and paneled. The main difference is in the price. The whole version is expensive. When using a panel, the outer part is made of natural wood, and the filling is from chipboard. This technology makes furniture cheaper and does not allow individual elements to deform over time. It should be noted that such material does not look in small kitchens. Therefore, it is better to find a kitchen set in Khrushchev with a different facade.
Very often used MDF for facades. This material has many advantages: high resistance, possibility of cladding different materials(MDF films, painting). This makes it possible not to limit yourself in choosing the color of the kitchen set. You can choose absolutely any color and its degree of saturation.
Plastic is also glued onto the base of MDF or chipboard. Plastic facades the most durable, but difficult to care for. You have to constantly deal with fingerprints. Matte plastic is generally difficult to clean.
facades from aluminum profile imply inserts in special designs. The photo of kitchen sets shows that such frames can include MDF, plastic, glass, rattan, and even mirrors. Their main advantage is durability and aesthetics. Unfortunately they are very expensive.
Most a budget option- front made of laminated chipboard. They are inexpensive, but they look quite simple, and they are difficult to care for.
table top
When choosing a countertop, one must be guided by two characteristics: beauty, strength. You can install a tabletop made of chipboard. They vary in quality. If you choose an option that meets all European requirements, it will serve long years and will delight with its hygiene and ease of care. You can make a worktop made of chipboard for a kitchen set with your own hands. Therefore, if the old one is subjected to strong mechanical impact, you can always replace it with a new one yourself.
Countertops from of stainless steel very strong, reliable, their edges are usually bent up a little, this prevents moisture from entering the cabinets. But they are made only in two versions: brushed steel and plain.
Stone countertops can be natural material or artificial. Artificial imitates the appearance of natural, while completely harmless. Samples of kitchen sets with countertops made of artificial stone differ in external completeness, solid appearance.
This issue of choice is especially relevant for Khrushchev, where there is nowhere to turn around. What to do with the refrigerator if it does not fit? What to do with the column, if a cupboard for dishes would “become” perfectly in its place, but now there is no place?
We will consider these and many other questions in our review. We will consider the most successful and interesting options interiors for small kitchens.
What are the basic furnishings needed in every kitchen?
In a small kitchen, you can’t fit much, of course. For example, if you live in a Brezhnev-era house, then you can’t even dream of a dishwasher, because there will be no space left for more important things.
What should it be, without which it will be very uncomfortable in the kitchen?
- kitchen worktop
- Cupboards that can hold dishes
- Stove for cooking
- Dishwasher
- Fridge
- Dinner table
Everything. Nothing more is needed. But, after all, I want to install an electric kettle conveniently and put a dishwasher ... And sometimes washing machine, since if the kitchen is only 6 square meters in Khrushevka, then the bath is only 2 meters.
How to be?
Yes, it's very simple: carefully look around and do not lose a single free centimeter from sight. Use the entire plane rationally, and choose universal furniture.
For example, why put a seating area in the kitchen without opening niches? You can put a lot in them, thereby freeing up space for installing a washing machine.
Or, why, in general, put this corner, if you can get by with a bar counter, which you will have instead of a window sill?
In general, there are a lot of options and, believe me, with the right approach, even the smallest kitchen can look very dignified and be comfortable.
Color matters a lot. But we will talk about this in more detail below.
Kitchen sets with closed cabinets
A row of closed cabinets below and a row of hanging cabinets are the most standard kitchen furniture today. IN turnkey solutions, as a rule, cabinets for built-in appliances are not supposed, it comes in small blocks, like a designer.
Of course, with a strong desire, such furniture can be beaten in an original way, but more often it happens that the kitchen looks too ordinary. But, you have many places where you can put appliances, dishes, cereals.
Getting it, however, is not always convenient! It would be much better to store the same cereals right in plain sight, in large glass jars. But, if you hung the cabinets upstairs, then there is nowhere to place a shelf for such a purpose.
Kitchen sets with open shelves
In Europe, kitchens are now gaining more and more popularity, where the lower part is standard, and the top is ordinary long shelves, in a couple of rows. In fact, it is much more convenient and functional than the standard we are used to.
Open space makes the room feel freer. Also, on these shelves, the jars that we talked about above and utensils for cooking are perfectly located. But, here it is necessary to take into account such a moment: if your dishes do not shine with beauty and cleanliness, then it is better to keep them away from prying eyes and get them if necessary.
And if everything is beautiful for you, then the question of which headset to choose should not be. Certainly this option better than the first. It takes up less space, is inexpensive, and at the same time stylish.
Homemade headsets
Rather than buying cheap kitchen sets that will crumble in three years and look dull, it is better to try to make furniture with your own hands.
Do-it-yourself kitchens do not literally need to be planed and sawn out. In building markets now there is everything and even more, in order to collect modular furniture(fittings and details).
You only need to take fiberboard sheet, in order to assemble the inner box of the kitchen, mark it and give it right there for trimming. There they will glue the edge for you. It remains only to collect.
Doors for cabinets also do not need to be made, they are ready-made, moreover, in almost any color and size. The prices for these modules are quite affordable, and if you assemble the kitchen yourself, the final price will be half that of the finished set.
There is no need to look for examples of such cuisines. Come and see for yourself and find the perfect combination.
Bar counter in a small kitchen
The bar counter can be placed in two places in a small kitchen: under the windowsill and instead of the wall that stands between the kitchen and the living room.
The wall can not be completely knocked out, but only part of it can be released. It will look great, the kitchen area will become more spacious, as there will be no need to put a dining table.
Behind the bar counter, which stands between, four people can fit at once. But, the problem may be elsewhere. Freeing the kitchen - you make the living room uncomfortable for the one who sleeps there.
Households will go to the kitchen at night, during the day the sound of working equipment and the smells of cooked food (not always pleasant) will be heard from there. Therefore, this option is good if the living room serves as a living room, not a bedroom.
Where to put the refrigerator if it does not fit?
If you still have a goal to install a dishwasher, it often turns out that the refrigerator just gets in the way. And in general, it interferes in tiny kitchens.
Taking it far is not an option, therefore, if we are talking about, then only one thing can be advised: put it in a closet, which is adjacent to the kitchen and serves as a pantry for conservation. In almost every Khrushchev, the arrangement is as follows, therefore, the idea is quite universal.
The only thing I would like to emphasize is that you should not leave the door on it, otherwise it will be inconvenient to get to the refrigerator. It is much better to hang some kind of curtain that will be in harmony with the textiles on the windows. And this is not a woman's option, but "Provence", so you know (this is us in case you doubt).
Where to put the gas column?
The kitchen geyser is an unsympathetic sight. But this is half the trouble. The bad thing is that it takes up too much space. And the point here is not even in size, but in the fact that there should not be any cabinets around it (for safety reasons).
So, if your kitchen is very small, and there are too many dishes and small appliances, then geyser can be moved to the bathroom. True, running back and forth to set it on fire is not very comfortable, but a lot of space will be freed up. And soot will not spoil the ceiling so much.
And to be honest, there is nowhere to run in Khrushchev. Take just a couple of extra steps.
Optimal colors for small kitchens
For a small kitchen, any color of furniture is suitable. One thing is important here - the color of the "substrate", that is, the walls. They are the basis, and the color of the kitchen set will depend on what color you painted them.
In general, there is no difference what color furniture you prefer. and dark tones(they do not look bulky and, visually, do not take up much space), light ones are also acceptable.
Even a red set in a small kitchen will look very interesting and even bright green. But at the same time, keep in mind that this will then be the second background color according to the laws of gamut distribution, which we will write about below.
The color scheme is extremely important for a small kitchen. If you paint the walls bright or dark color, then it will automatically look even tighter.
At all, perfect option wall colors are white. Absolutely everything looks good against such a neutral background: floor, paintings, decor, dishes. white wall and expands, and is the perfect backdrop for everything else.
But one white will not be full. It is necessary to pick up some second color to it, which will also be an important background reflection.
By all laws, only three colors “get along” best in a room, where one of them is the main one (60%), the second is auxiliary (30%) and the third is an accent (10%). For example, wood, which is usually used in kitchen façade cladding, is best suited to white walls as a second color.
But the third color, the most important, can be anything with these two dominant colors. Even red, even blue, even green.
It comes out very simple, but cozy and tasteful.
What styles of kitchens are unacceptable in a small square
Color is good. But there is also style. What exactly is suitable for a small kitchen - we have already said - simplicity. And now let's stop your attention on what styles will look just caricatured in a small area.
A square and small kitchen will look very bad if it comes to your mind to design it in modern style, which implies chic, spaciousness and lack of strict geometry.
Classics, neoclassics - also by. It will be a parody, not classic interior therefore, it is better to refrain from it.
Kitsch, Provence and eclecticism are also not very good, since these styles involve a large number of additional elements decor, and since there will be nowhere for you to place them, it will still not look good.
Still, the best thing is minimalism and moderation.
Successful examples of headsets in a small kitchen
It is one thing to understand theoretically, and another thing to see visually. Here in this block we will show you what a kitchen set looks like for a small kitchen in real photos.
Please note that some of the photos show mini-equipment. That is, small refrigerators instead of ordinary ones, small hobs. All this saves space.
As you can see, kitchens in Khrushchevs can look very interesting!
A kitchen with an area of 8-9 sq.m can hardly be called quite small for our country. Of course, by the standards of the Mediterranean with their areas, this is not enough, but for us and for Europe it is quite familiar.
This photo shows the design of a kitchen set for a small kitchen, which is a little more than Khrushchev.

Photos can now be seen in numerous advertising brochures, specialized periodicals, as well as simply on the Internet. In this regard, it is necessary to navigate in matters related to the choice of furniture for the kitchen. After all, the kitchen is a place where family members gather for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or just chat over a cup of tea or coffee.
The choice of a headset, first of all, depends on the area of \u200b\u200bthe room used. With its limitation, it is best to choose furniture designed for a small kitchen.
It is necessary to pay special attention to the facade of the headset. During operation kitchen furniture, the most active influence is exerted on the facade, which significantly affects the appearance of the room. In this regard, when choosing a headset, you must choose high-quality material.
Each kitchen set, thanks to separate layout, available conditions, is individual. A kitchen sofa with a sleeping place can be provided. It is necessary to take into account and use all the details in in full. In order not to rack your brains too much, you can choose a specific style that is suitable for a particular situation.
Styles of kitchen sets
When designing a kitchen, the most common styles are:
- Classical
- Country
- Modern
- High tech
Classic style
Classic style- is a tradition that is embodied in a calm interior. Kitchen sets of this style can perfectly fit almost any layout and footage. Classical motifs are created thanks to furniture stylized as a tree, which has natural shades - brown, white, beige. This style, for many years, will help to create a special comfort, which is its uniqueness.
Country
Kitchen set in style country music will appeal to all those who like a fresh and original rustic direction. This style is liked by those who love antiquity, where various scuffs and cracks are relevant, there are vintage features.
In country style, the kitchen consists of natural colors, assembled from natural material - wood. Very often, the interior is complemented with forged gratings, massive clocks, antique lamps. The characteristic feature of this style is its massiveness and solidity, and this requires quite large spaces. That is, for small kitchens this style probably won't work.
Modern
Among the younger generation, style is now especially popular. modern. A kitchen set in this style is characterized by the absence of unnecessary details, brightness and modern design. It gives a variety in the choice of ideas for a small kitchen. Durable and lightweight materials, both artificial and natural, are used here.
The furniture of this direction is very wide in girth - these are the simplest models in terms of design, and whole works of art, executed in an alternative style. Among such kitchen furniture it will be very appropriate and look good. various equipment. This style is suitable for small spaces, modern, as it were, gives the room additional space, richness in functional terms and overall lightness.
High tech
Style high tech is, as it were, a continuation of modernity. It is intended for those who like to experiment with space, materials and colors. For many people, the problems of small footage of premises located in an apartment are often painful.
However, this style is well suited to rooms of various sizes. Facades with a glossy surface, visually, significantly increase the space. Appliances, as a rule, with this style it is very defiant, but at the same time modern.
Ethnic style
A separate style is ethnic direction which is very versatile. You can use the design traditions that are inherent in one nation, such as Japanese traditions, or combine elements of different nations, creating something special.
In the interior, you can combine a variety of motifs - Scandinavian, Oriental, English and others. Furniture, at the same time, can be made according to custom order. Photo printing on facades has proven itself well.
Loft
Kitchen loft– style b, combining both old and new. Contrasts are very important here. brick walls and wooden floor combined with cabinets made of metal or glass, as well as modern household appliances.
A modern kitchen should be optimally equipped from a functional point of view. This is achieved, among other things, with the help of the right kitchen set. The thoughtfulness of all the details in it is the key to comfort and coziness in the kitchen.
Any hostess dreams of a spacious kitchen. With a comfortable workplace, many drawers and shelves for storing dishes, modern technical assistants, a huge dining table… But often the flight of our fantasies is limited to a modest footage. And the question comes to the fore, how to place maximum amount useful furniture. Great solution problems are corner kitchen sets - ergonomic, functional and roomy.
But they look more massive in the kitchen than linear ones - fans of conservative design principles may object to me. Yes, I can't help but agree. However, even the complexities of their designs are overshadowed by the obvious benefits. It is already simply impossible to imagine a modern kitchen without a concise and expressive set, in which every little thing has its place. This is furniture for those who appreciate perfect order who are trying to use every square centimeter of their apartment to good use.
In my opinion, corner kitchen sets are a suitable solution, regardless of the size of the room. They make a small room more comfortable, but at the same time visually expand the space. Especially if you prioritize light colors finishes. You will be surprised how instantly a miniature kitchenette is filled with soft light.
Incredibly lucky owners spacious kitchen. It can be divided into working area and a dining room. And in this case, a corner kitchen set will also be appropriate. An island from it will stand big table behind which the whole family will fit. See how cute this way of furnishing looks. You immediately get the feeling that you are in a fashionable restaurant. Stylish, classy, beautiful.
Unfortunately, history has not preserved the name of the person who came up with the idea to move away from the stereotypical design of the kitchen. Probably not from excess free space he began to look for ways to maximize the use of space. The corner in the kitchen is the area that long time almost never used by designers. What to place in it? A shelf for small things or a towel rack... Here it is, a great invention worthy of a Nobel nomination - a corner kitchen set. Now the corner is occupied by useful structures.
A modern hostess can equip her kitchen according to her own taste. Corner can take:
- plate,
- washing,
- mini chest of drawers with drawers,
- cupboard,
- rack,
- built-in appliances.
It all depends on how you see comfortable kitchen where everything is always at hand.
By the way, the followers of the Feng Shui movement have long been positively assessed by the cornerstones. After all various ways arrangements of modular components allow you to distinguish between elements that belong to different elements. I will explain: according to Feng Shui, a stove and a sink cannot stand side by side, since the elements of fire and water neutralize each other. Design experts who listen to the rules of this ancient teaching advise placing a table between the tile and the sink.
Again, in Feng Shui, the corner itself carries a hidden threat. And kitchen furniture, made in the form of a corner set, smooths out the danger. The corner becomes softer. Any connoisseur of this teaching will say that thanks to such a design move, the situation in your kitchen will be favorable, quarrels will subside, and kindness will settle in the house.
Whether or not to believe in the advice of the Feng Shui sages is your own business. I think you will not argue with the fact that corner kitchen sets look great in any interior, the photos confirm this. Classic, modern, high-tech and avant-garde - now you can choose a furniture corner in the style that is close to you. Most often, buyers prefer pastel and light colors in decoration, without protruding decorative elements. On the modern kitchen everything should be concise.
If you find this design boring, I can advise you to add colorful accents with kitchen apron. girls like it floral motifs in its decor, you can also pick up geometric prints or try to create the illusion of an underwater journey. Another option is to highlight a contrasting color over a plain tile. Look how unusual and spectacular.
Modern furniture allows you to create themed designs, which is great! The kitchen will become a place for culinary experiments if it is furnished competently and tastefully. Any hostess will rush here with pleasure. Indeed, in such a cozy place there is not even a hint of a daily routine!
