A set of kitchen furniture: Set of items of furniture for kitchen

To avoid confusion in concepts, define once - what a set of kitchen furniture. Today, manufacturers of finished except suites offer whole sets of different cabinets, cupboards, tables and cabinets, from which the customer himself can choose the items he needed. They are united by kinship materials and similar design, so in any case, the set will look harmonious. To learn how to properly collect the kitchen of these individual elements, we'll talk.

What should be included?

Nobody will be able to correctly answer the question, except the owners. Matched sets of furniture to order and set up, so that everyone can find the right items in accordance with their ideas about the convenience and functionality of the kitchen. We show you how to plan your room, and how to take steps to achieve the goal - the perfect set of purchase.

Set a price level

The amount beyond which you will not go under any circumstances, should not be a guide, but it will have to look around and at each stage. Ideally you should look for kitchen setWhich is cheaper, because you still have to purchase at least a sink, countertop in furniture components and internal storage.

Record, without any furnishings you can not do exactly

Some like hanging lockers, others prefer open shelves and all the utensils are stored in the floor pedestals. Collecting a set for yourself, you can experiment and purchase favorite items is greater than that provided in a standard headset. Separately it is necessary to write down the items that I would like to have in the kitchen, but their absence does not become critical. Buy these items, permitting planning and sustain budget.

Owning a tight kitchen should look at the modules with plenty of drawers. So a set of furniture becomes more functional and from some of the cabinet could be phased out, saving a little more space.

Make kitchen measurements

Be sure to put on the floor plan all communications, distance to the windows, the doors, the location of the ventilation vents. So you not only correctly pick up a set of furniture, but also immediately podyschet convenient location for the installation of kitchen equipment. Ready sketch need to take with you to the store to once again verify the coincidence of sizes.

Already at this stage necessary to calculate the dimensions of the individual modules of the future set, focusing on standard offers producers. The width of enclosure selected from the series of values: 15, 20, 45, 60, 80, 90, 100 and 120 cm - enough to meet the needs of any family. Hinged cupboards can be vertical height and horizontal 132 cm or (35 cm) - they should choose a hostess growth. As for the floor pedestals, do not forget: most of them will be based on the operating table top. Its surface should be 10-15 cm from the elbow the person standing next to the hands do not get tired during food processing.

Decide on the method of arrangement of furniture

Special arrangement of kitchen interior should not be considered as it is not too convenient for a mistress, and looks good only on a very large area. Therefore, the choice is a number of standard options:

• L-shaped or corner placement - saves a maximum of space in close quarters with a large number of modules. In the list immediately, store the angular cabinet and the upper cabinet.
• Linear - ideal for kitchens, occupying a niche in the studio, small or regular shaped rooms. It is better that the headset and the wall does not remain tight "pockets", so look for an opportunity to place in a series of compact modules in width of 15-20 cm.
• Island - require a sufficiently large area of ​​not less than 16 squares, but to work with this method of placement of furniture sets is much easier.
• Two-row (aka galley) - a rare case, but if you have a kitchen with a pass-through, it is the best option. Just Calculate the depth of floor pedestals to the free distance between rows was 1,2-2,8 m - no more and no less.

At this stage, should decide the issue with the placement of a dining group, given the easy access to it. If the full table on the remaining patch does not fit, you can make a drawing compact folding pattern or supplement the basic kitchen set is also a bar. As a result, you get a plan in the size and number of elements of the headset - you can safely go for purchase.

No further selection set will apply only to the style and the colors of the set. But try not to chase the new fashion trends - they are replaced quickly, and the furniture in the kitchen is used for years. Among the well-established and do not lose relevance styles lack of interesting options to create a unique interior.

modular kitchens

This is the best example of inlaid furniture. Manufacturers produce huge range of individual items of kitchen interior, decorated in the same style or blend harmoniously with each other. The modules can not only choose to your taste, but also rearrange them freely, as will be more convenient, because it is often the size of buildings and they are the same.

Another plus is a modular set - an opportunity to furnish the kitchen gradually when the big money purchase does not collect. True, this will have to look seriously shop where the collection "live" long enough. After all, if the range will be removed from production and can not manage to buy everything you need. Today, modular kitchens have in any furniture showroom, but the biggest selection of offers, of course, Ikea.

series Albret

Sleek design modules with flat fronts without decor does not seem boring, and all thanks to the expressive texture on laminated wood doors. Main colors and textures in this series are quite varied, so you can pick up a set for any kitchen interior:

• smooth white;
• textured black and brown;
• natural oak;
• gray-brown wood texture;

All hardware is already complete, and the loops suspended facades may be outweighed by any side and height adjustable. Pen-brackets or "button" - this is the choice of the buyer. Shells and facades made of laminated chipboard, the rear wall are closed painted hardboard.

The collection of Albret no high canisters - all items are only for the upper and lower row of kitchen. But among the wall cabinets can be found as a narrow model is only 40 cm, and a very spacious housing width of 60 (single-door) or 80 cm. There are horizontal units with blind facades, but the swing doors in this case it is better to replace the folding.

series Overby

The design of these delicate cuisine is nearly the same sets discussed above, but there are differences. Apart from light peach-colored facades and white housings, modules visually lighter than steel, by getting rid of the lower ground rails. And the upper cabinets were spacious open shelves, thanks to which the kitchen will look almost weightless, even in tight spaces.

All modules are of standard width - 40 cm and 60 cm. Choice, of course, is limited: three options for wall cabinets and the same floor pedestals. But if we add to this light green items from the collection of Albret in the same white body, get the original and stylish kit for the kitchen in pastel shades.

Sometimes separately bought and countertop for the working area, but there may be flexibility both advantages and disadvantages. Whole surface is easy to adjust to his size, if you want to mount in a standard place to build car wash or plate. On the other hand, all have to do with their hands, or pay professionals for cutting and installation.

Dining group

It is also a kind of sets, as the hosts take on not only the right size table, but also suitable to him sets of chairs on the number of family members. The most popular among owners of small kitchens are corner suites, which include:

• dining table (can have a folding tabletop);
• corner settee (often with drawers concealed under the seat);
• ladders, stools, benches or chairs.

Choose such kits is easier, but some of the rules still have to be observed. For example, a standard dining table will not work if you have a big family - for each sitting shall be at 70 cm wide countertop. If the rectangular model does not satisfy this requirement, it is necessary to consider the oval or round products that are at the same dimensions are more spacious.

A sofa or chairs, you can choose to your taste, ensuring the preservation of harmony in the appearance of the very group dining and kitchen as a whole. Specific requirements for their design and construction is not, but to the production of the material should look.

Sometimes the search altogether simplified if the core set of furniture includes comfortable and spacious bar. For it is enough to get high chairsSuitable to the look of the room, and your food is ready.
