The ideal kitchen for a small apartment -dream or utopia? Today, designers and decorators offer many, if not an infinite number, ideas and ready-made solutions for decorating the interior of a small kitchen, so that the question of the ideal kitchen automatically moves from the “maybe” to the “it’s” position. Don't believe me? See for yourself - for you a selection of 10 successful options in various styles and directions. Look at the photos and read the recommendations of the designers, and then it's up to you ... 
1 Agree on six square meters is not easyplan the position of the refrigerator, stove and furniture. However, "not easy" does not mean impossible. The presented photo offers one type of arrangement - a kitchen in two rows. On the one hand - a locker, a refrigerator and a sink, and on the other - a cooking surface and a working kitchen table. The dining table is located a little to the side, by the window, which visually divides the area into a dining room and a cooking zone. Plasterboard partitions that separate the kitchen from the living room, do not reach the ceiling. This simple technique allows you to avoid the feeling of confined space, and visually expand the room. Simple, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. Lighting. It is worthwhile to dwell on it in detail, since it was carefully thought out in advance when developing this design project. A large chandelier over the dining table, wall cabinets and a hood with lighting - the maximum light, and hence the maximum comfort and warmth. This unchanged rule should not be forgotten. 
2 Before you another option for planning the kitchen intwo rows. However, this time between the two rows of furniture parallel to each other, there is a dining table. This design is suitable for a square-shaped kitchen. Color is the most effective way to visually expand the space. In this project, colors of exceptionally soft colors were used - white brickwork as an “apron”, light beige walls and bright orange furniture. A warm range of shades of “edible” colors is an ideal “recipe” for creating a stylish interior, as well as a psychologically harmonious atmosphere for a place of cooking and eating. Many lockers and drawers allow you to effectively use every centimeter, and without that modest space. 
3 We offer to get acquainted with another option.design project for small-sized kitchen - L-shaped layout. Convenient and rational for small narrow spaces. It ensures the continuity of equipment lines, which visually expands the room, and at the same time creates the possibility of arranging the working area near the window. In this case, it is a large square sink. What could be better - to wash the dishes, while dreamily looking out the window! The choice of color for furniture is also a good decision - the bright facades of the kitchen set, the glazed doors of the cabinets with decorative elements create a feeling of lightness and spaciousness. 
4 Kitchen in one row - another great ideafor narrow elongated spaces. The main equipment in such projects is located very compactly along one wall, leaving more room for the dining area. And again, the designer focuses on color - spectacular, one might say classic, and therefore a win-win combination of bright red, gray and white. Many glossy surfaces - shiny tiles, lacquered furniture, chrome-plated backs and legs of chairs, as well as accessories - such an abundance of shiny visual increases the space and reduces the "pressing" effect of red in the interior. Part of the working area is located above the main level - a well-known technique, when at least one piece of furniture “stretches” upwards, which creates an optical illusion that the ceilings are higher and there is more space. It also allows you to use cabinets as a bar. 
5 U-shaped layout is beneficial for both largekitchens, and for small-sized area of 5-6 sq. m. It provides the location of equipment in a continuous line - tables, wall cabinets, mini-fridge, washing machine, oven, hob, extractor and microwave - which allows you to effectively use not only the total area, but also the corner elements. Agree - this is a whole art! And again, let us say a word about color! The snow-white kitchen unit harmoniously combines with the warm, natural shades of the worktop laminated under the light wood, as well as with the “apron” of tiles that imitate brickwork. Warm, cozy, and even airy! 
6 Pay attention to this unusual decision! The wall between the kitchen and the heated lodges was demolished, and Voila is a convenient U-shaped layout with a working area near the window. Cozy and unusually light! However, the “airy” effect is also achieved due to the light walls and to the tone of the delicate color of the furniture. Plus - the lack of wall cabinets. Open shelves and "bare" walls. It turns out that the lower cabinets and drawers for storing dishes and products are quite enough. Who would have thought? 
7 Not always the perfect combination of smallspaces and classics from the massif of a natural tree nevertheless take place to be. Proof of this is the next design project. The presented L-shaped arrangement of kitchen furniture is one of the most practical solutions for small kitchens, since it allows surprisingly convenient and compact arrangement of the so-called “work triangle” - a refrigerator, a sink and a cooker. Long floor and wall cabinets, shelves, all kinds of pull-out drawers - all kitchen utensils are hidden, and not one millimeter of precious space is lost. Pay attention to one more detail - the tabletop made of artificial snow-white stone turned out to be quite narrow, and in order to fit the stove and oven, the designers “drew” the original ledge. 
8 Bright accents in this project area small podium, visually separating the living room and kitchen, and a bar counter located along the wall. Considering in detail this kitchen interior, you understand how carefully every centimeter was thought out and meticulously. The attractiveness of the furniture gives the game contrasts. The milky-white color of the tabletop and several cabinets is opposed to dark brown. Small cabinets look harmonious with large, and narrow - with wide. Spotlights above the furniture and built into the furniture visually raise the ceiling, and expand the space. 
9 original and very stylish interiorthe next project can be given the name "50 shades of gray." Different shades of gray look impressive against a bright white background. Such striking contrast is complemented by no less striking smooth facades made in laconic strict lines. Minimum details - maximum space. Minimalism on six squares - this is also possible! 
10 Kitchen interior in high-tech style - hereYou can spy a couple of interesting solutions for small-sized kitchen! The first - a table made in a minimalist style and chairs made of transparent plastic - create a feeling of lightness and airiness. The second is instead of traditional curtains with ruffles of blinds with aluminum slats. The more natural light, the wider the space. And third: an abundance of mirror and shiny surfaces. This mirror tile "apron", and chrome handles, and a practical shiny rack for storing spices. The brighter sparkles and shimmers, the more visually the small-sized kitchen!
