Now that house prices are rising day by day, small apartments have become the first choice for many families. On the one hand, it gives enough space for small families, on the other hand, it also relieves economic pressure. However, the small apartment also has its own restrictions, such as the kitchen and bathroom. Correspondingly, when designing, its area will also be limited, thus affecting its function. Therefore, we can only make up for the regret here as much as possible through family decoration design. Come and have a look with us.
First, simple style is most suitable.
Small-sized kitchen mainly refers to the kitchen below 6 square meters. Including 2-3m2 kitchen in mini apartment, 3-4m2 kitchen with one room and one living room, and 4-5m2 kitchen with two rooms, two halls, three rooms and two halls. A kitchen of this size generally only considers the function of preparing meals. A few people can make a simple dining area with movable shelves. The indispensable principle in decoration is Jian Yuepai. Don't be messy in style. Modern style with straight lines is the best choice. Colors can be high-key or elegant, but they must be single. If you want to make subtle changes in color, you should at least keep the tone consistent.
Second, the linear and L-shaped layout is the most reasonable.
In kitchen design, one of the most basic concepts is "triangular workspace". For example, the position of sink, operating table and stove is a triangle in an ideal situation, and the distance between them is no more than one meter. However, such a design may not be realized in the long and narrow kitchen now. The most suitable layout is probably zigzag and L-shaped, and the layout is determined according to personal daily operation procedures. Zigzag kitchen layout refers to the zigzag arrangement of all working areas along a wall, giving people a simple and lively feeling. This method is usually used when the corridor width is not enough to accommodate parallel design. The workspace combination of this spatial structure must be simple, but there must be unobstructed passages. In the L-shaped kitchen layout, "triangular workspace" can be realized. The working area is unfolded in a 90-degree L shape along the wall, which can facilitate the continuous operation of each process. If conditions permit, this is actually the most space-saving design. And if it is an open L-shape, the short side can be designed as a partition workbench, or directly designed as a small dining table.
Third, elastic storage space is the most precious.
The smaller the kitchen, the more likely it is to give people a messy feeling. That's because there is not enough storage space, and everything has to be put outside. However, in a small kitchen, some flexible storage space is precious. If we make good use of them, the effect may be very different. For example, a wall frame can be installed between the ground cabinet and the hanging cabinet, and disinfection cabinets and microwave ovens can be placed, and laminated plates, hooks, storage trays, cups, seasoning bottles, shovels and spoons can also be installed, so that they can be prevented from occupying the countertop of the cabinet. When making cabinets, leave a simple space and put a stainless steel frame with pulleys. You can put some common items on it and push them back to their original positions after use, which saves space and is convenient to use. If there is no place to cook, you can also put the chopping block on the top floor and make a temporary operation desk. In idle corners, folding or adjustable-length dining tables can make full use of them. Hanging cabinets can be installed above the refrigerator, which not only increases the storage capacity, but also has a good decorative effect.
Fourth, simple tones are the most open.
Generally speaking, small-sized kitchens should not be colorful in terms of overall color arrangement. Pay special attention not to use decorative materials with three-dimensional patterns or strong contrast between light and dark, otherwise it will not only make the kitchen area look narrow visually, but also be difficult to clean. The ideal tones are monochrome and light color, and white, light gray or bright milky yellow and light blue are all good choices. Not only bright, but also has the effect of expanding the sense of space. The colors in enclosed kitchens are usually small decorative decorations, such as a colored tile or some ponies, to activate the slightly dull space in the fender design. Choose a single light-colored wall brick for the wall, use the mirror to extend the sense of space of the wall, and use local artistic decoration to distract visual attention. It is best to unify the colors of the floor, such as white and light green, to enhance the sense of coordination and spaciousness. In addition, the glass has a strong display effect and will not make people feel depressed. The application of glass frame in hanging cabinets is very modern.
5. It is best to use the range hood from China.
Due to the limitation of space, the European-style range hood, which is large enough to generate enough suction, is a bit redundant. The Chinese-style deep range hood is more in line with the requirements of domestic small kitchens, which not only saves money, but also increases lockers and expands storage space. Two-eye cookers are enough for the small kitchen, and the width is also suitable. If it is a single apartment with a small area, it is more popular to use an induction cooker instead of a gas stove. In addition, because the door hardware should be excellent. Small kitchens generally use less large drawers, so the number of cupboard doors will increase, and they will be opened and closed repeatedly every day, so that the role of hinges will be highlighted. Be sure to try to choose imported brands. There may be a lot of things in the hanging cabinet in the kitchen, so the safest hanging code should be used to meet the needs of maximum load.
6. What is the best cost?
What is the general price of kitchen decoration? Taking an area of 6 square meters as an example, if you choose a domestic integrated kitchen, the higher-end price is generally around 2,000 yuan/linear meter (excluding accessories such as electrical appliances, faucets and sinks), and the overall kitchen price is between 6,543,800 yuan and 20,000 yuan; The price of pure imported kitchen is high, so consider choosing some pure imported materials. The price of small-sized integrated kitchen assembled in China will be much lower. The cheapest 3-linear-meter kitchen is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, which is very cost-effective.
