Kitchen 25-30 sq. M

Kitchen area of ​​25-30 square meters. m allows for a lot of planning, decoration and technical capabilities, but at the same time raises many questions.

In this material we formulated 10 tips that will help you avoid mistakes and effectively manage the available meters.

10 advice on the arrangement of a large kitchen 25-30 square meters

Tip 1. Place the "work" points close to each other

A common mistake in the arrangement of spacious kitchens - failure to comply with the rule of the "working triangle". This is especially true of the refrigerator, which is often placed at a distance. To make the kitchen comfortable, and you do not have to run from place to place with the products on hand while cooking, you need to place all three vertices of the working triangle nearby and so that between them there are no obstacles like the dining table.

  • Between sink and stove can be a distance of 60 to 180 cm, and between the sink and the refrigerator - from 45 cm to 2 meters. The smaller the distance between the work points, the more convenient the kitchen will be.

Tip 2. The perfect layout - U-shaped

From the point of view of the same “working triangle”, namely U-shaped layout is the ideal solution for a kitchen of 25-30 square meters. m, as it allows you to have everything you need literally at your fingertips.

However, if you do not plan to equip a kitchen with an island (we will tell about it a little below), then the U-shaped set should be designed to be small in size so that there is no more than 120 cm between the pedestals, otherwise the U-shaped layout’s advantage is lost.

Tip 3. An island or a peninsula - a guarantee of super convenience

One of the bonus kitchen area of ​​25-30 square meters. meters is an opportunity to equip the kitchen island - multifunctional table for kitchen work and storage. Thanks to him, you can create the perfect “work triangle” no matter what form your headset is built into.

The island can be equipped with at least a stove and a bar and at most - a stove, a bar, a sink, a mini-fridge and / or a wine cabinet. And the island perfectly divides the space into zones - kitchen, dining room and living room.

  • The main rule for choosing an island: The passages around it should be at least 1 meter wide, and its shape should follow the shape of the room.
  • If you use the kitchen only as a workroom or as kitchen-dining room, the island may be big. If you are equipping a kitchen-living room, then a compact island with a size of no more than 100 × 120 cm or a peninsula will do. The peninsula (see photo) is the same island, but with one end facing the wall or in the headsets.

Tip 4. Create a uniform lighting.

Even the most perfectly furnished kitchen can become uncomfortable and uncomfortable if you incorrectly plan its lighting. On 25-30 squares it should be uniform, not dull, but not too bright. To achieve this, except ceiling chandelier additional light sources should be used. The best spotlights, placed around the perimeter of the ceiling at a distance of about 30-70 cm from each other. By the way, they can not illuminate the whole room, but only the working area. Also, to create a uniform light, you can use wall sconces and floor lamps.

  • Ideally, the chandelier should be placed not in the center of the kitchen, but above the dining table (at a height of 70-90 cm from the tabletop), it is good if it is multi-track. Thus, you not only illuminate the dining area, but also visually divide the space.
  • It is best to cover the island with a couple-three suspensions of a concise design.
  • Your lighting must be in the working area - above the table top and above the wall cabinets.
  • If the kitchen is combined with the living room, then the living area should be equipped not only with general lighting, but also independently. Floor lamps and table lamps will create coziness and make the spacious room more intimate.

Tip 6. In order not to complicate the cleaning of a large kitchen, discard impractical surfaces.

Here are some helpful tips to help you create a kitchen that is easy to clean and difficult to soil.

  • Discard the facades, countertops, apron and floor of dark shades (black, graphite, dark brown, dark green and dark blue). Dust, crumbs and stains on dark surfaces (especially glossy) are very noticeable.
  • Prefer artificial rather than natural stone for facing the table top and apron. Other suitable options are tile and wood (for countertops).
  • The most practical flooring material - tile or porcelain stoneware. In the kitchen-living room with this material you can finish only the work area, and the rest of the room with any other material. Different floor finishes not only make cleaning easier, but also zone the space.
