1. Should the kitchen be completely closed?
Some netizens are also open-minded after referring to some samples or pictures of kitchen utensils companies. A friend who came back from abroad told me this kind of thing, and I only asked him a simple question: What's the difference between Chinese food and western food?
In fact, it is easy for people to fool the effect by looking at those pictures. Most of the pictures of tile suppliers are made of partitions (not walls) of more than ten or twenty square meters. At present, the domestic kitchen area is about 6 square meters. The largest does not exceed 8 square meters. Due to different living habits, western food is often just stewed spaghetti steak and wrapped in a toaster.
Chinese food is often fried, especially when it is cooked with animal oil instead of vegetable oil, there is a lot of oil smoke. Therefore, unless you are a friend who likes western food, you should honestly use a closed kitchen. If you like, of course, you can use glass as a partition to at least meet your psychological needs.
2. Cabinet countertops
At present, the countertops are mainly natural stone (marble or granite) and artificial stone. Both materials can be used. Relatively speaking, natural stone is hard and artificial stone is soft. Although foreign artificial stones can use sandpaper to treat the scratch lines on the surface, domestic artificial stones are more and more worn.
3. Kitchen color
Try to use cool colors and light colors. Because the kitchen is hot, if you use warm colors, you will feel that the room temperature is two or three degrees higher. Personally, I like to use white, clean and neat, and the wall tiles are white, which is also conducive to the color matching of kitchen cabinets.
4, waterproof problem
There is not much water in the kitchen. Waterproofing is mainly to ensure the position of the sink and the inclination of the ground. The key of the former is to make the interface waterproof. Some people think that the use of combined kitchen cabinets can avoid this problem, but it is not. If the kitchen cabinet made of plywood is ventilated after receiving water, the combined kitchen cabinet will expand when receiving water, and then the surface fire plate will separate.
The floor of the kitchen cabinet must be a brick platform of 10 cm. Now kitchens in many places in the north are not waterproof. Because of living habits, the kitchens in the north don't even have floor drains. This is another matter.
5, about the kitchen facade material selection.
1) The ceiling of the kitchen should adopt a 300x300 square plane aluminum gusset plate. It is not recommended to use PVC, plastic and other strip materials because they are easy to deform downward. Commercial waterproof gypsum board and other materials should not be used in the kitchen.
2) Glazed tiles with bright surface should be selected for kitchen wall tiles. Without the guidance of designers, white and milky white can be used. Bone-colored or dark tiles are not suitable. It is also unfavorable to use tiles with too dim patterns.
3) The kitchen floor tiles must use non-slip tiles. Because even if there is no water in the kitchen, there will be greasy.
6, the choice of lamps and lanterns
Kitchen lamps and lanterns should use covered ceiling lamps. At present, there is also an embedded lamp board with a glass cover on the market.
