Classic interior of the kitchen in a modern style
Kitchen exterior in a modern style
The modern style is a mix of modern, minimalism, loft and other directions that are not tolerant and great importance to the details. The harmonious interior of modern kitchen largely depends on the correctly selected palette, competent layout and materials used in the decoration and in the manufacture of furniture.
Fashionable palette
The modern style does not know any color restrictions, the main rule is the correct combination of shades. Despite this freedom, designers prefer a neutral or monochrome palette, where white, gray, brown and black tones prevail.
The main shades of the kitchen are perfectly combined with the dining room and living room
If a boring kitchen is not for you, place the accents with colorful facades or upholstery of furniture.
Council designers: for the ceiling, floor, walls and furniture headset, choose no more than three shades (60% of the area), another 30%, for example, a countertop and upholstery, decorate in color-companions and only 10% are left for contrasting shades.

Convenient layout
You can fully follow modern style only in spacious rooms, as this is due to layout.
Cabinet furniture is located in line, angle or P-shaped, complemented by an island or bar. It is noteworthy that the “island” can be either a dining table and a storage system, in some cases, a hob or washing is installed in the center of the room, in the first version you have to mount an extract in the center of the room.
Important: the redevelopment of communications (gas and water supply) must be agreed upon in the relevant authorities and entrusted the installation of professionals.

If the area does not allow fantasy to turn around, then instead of the island equipped with the equipment opposite the furniture, a dining table is installed. If the house has wide window sills, then their area will also use, for example, under the sink.

Materials of manufacture
Today, in the public domain, any finishing and building materials, including for the manufacture of furniture. The question is only in price. So modern style dictates the rules according to which natural materials or their quality imitation are used. Most popular marble or granite work surfaces, tables and even sinks, but also travertine, onyx and quartzite have become in demand recently.

The tree is used not only for the manufacture of furniture, but also when decorating the floor, walls and even the ceiling. In the interiors of the kitchen in the modern style, they began to use birch plywood as furniture facades and as wall decoration.

Features of kitchen design in a modern style
The expression “God in the little things” refers to the design of modern kitchen, where all the interior elements are important: from furniture and finishes, to lighting and dishes.
“Apron”
This is the name of the part of the wall between the working surface and the lower edge of the hanging cabinets in the kitchen. The design of this zone must be approached responsibly. In the modern style, an aprons of glass (skin) or polished stone, which visually continues the countertop, are welcome. It is allowed to design a apron, facades and countertops with a microcent to create a single visual space.

Furniture set
When choosing a kitchen furniture in a modern style, avoid classic models. Any unusual textures and surface drawings are allowed, up to the use of a parquet board as structural elements. A furniture set can contrast with the main palette of the interior or visually dissolve in it.
In modern kitchens, long monotonous facades are not welcome, it is better to “crush” them (hang in two rows or chaotic order), integrate an open shelf or alternate open and closed storage systems.

Household appliances
To arrange a kitchen in a modern style-the pleasure is not cheap and not only because of the price of finishing materials and furniture, but also the need to equipment with modern household appliances. In most projects, large equipment is built into furniture or is an interior object. Sometimes the color of the refrigerator of the plate of the dishwasher, etc. is selected in the tone of the furniture facades.
All small household appliances usually remain in sight, and therefore should overlap in style with the main design of the room. Stainless stainless steel or color meters look advantageous, while plastic items are better not to put on display.

Dining zone
Simple forms of the table and chairs are one of the conditions of the modern style, but the material of the manufacture of restrictions is not names, and therefore in dining areas there are models not only of wood, but also from glass, plastic and even metal. A stone countertop with a base of wood or metal looks luxurious.
The number of legs of the table is affected by both the general visual impression and the size of the room: tables on one leg, folding versions or in the form of a bar rack are appropriate in a small kitchen.

Correct lighting
The scenario of lighting in modern kitchen is multi -layer. Be sure to highlight the zone, as a rule, using LED tape or built -in lamps. Separately equip lighting over a bar or a dining room with a group.

Dishes and decor in modern kitchen
There should be modern dishes in the modern kitchen, and therefore you need to immediately abandon the grandmother’s service in flower and classic shapes. Choose simple monophonic dishes, but extraordinary shapes, square, oval or incorrect outlines of plates, salad bowls and pels against the background of simple glasses look advantageous.
It is worth creatively approaching the design of the interior, where even the mixers in the sink look like art objects.
Metal decor is selected in tone of household appliances or functional elements (mixers, lampshades, furniture fittings). Do not fill the space with a large amount of textiles, sometimes the only fabric in the interior is curtains, mostly rolled.
