Kitchen Design Studio 115 photos ideas modern interior

"It is very possible that Isadora Duncan does. Maybe she was having lunch in the office and in the bathroom cuts rabbits. But I'm not Isadora Duncan. I'm going to have dinner in the dining room and operate in the operating room. "(Heart of a Dog. M. Bulgakov)

Living room, in which there is only load-bearing walls is called the studio. It lacks the inner walls (except for WC), it is conditionally divided into the living area and the dining area with kitchen. It had such a plan in the 20-ies of the last century. The very creation of the studio is attributed to the German architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, although, in fairness, it is worth noting that in its projects of apartments with free planning of those years, just a kitchen with a bathroom is in the "fixed core" apartment. The same idea of ​​open space is permeated and "gaining momentum" in our country kitchen design studio, open-plan kitchen with living room, dining room, hallway and balcony. Initially, the studio kitchen was by optimizing usable space only for a small kitchen in a standard apartment, but became popular in homes over time, making it possible not to feel "cramped".

Advantages and disadvantages

Combining the kitchen with other rooms will create a new spacious and bright room with great functionality, in which the entire area will be used rationally. Convenient such variant for standard kitchen area of ​​8 m, the dimensions of which leave much to be desired. Positive aspects are:

• Space more lit and contains a large amount of air as there are no "deaf" walls. Visually, with this design, even a small kitchen will be perceived as large.
• The opportunity to take a large number of visitors and chat with them without looking up from the preparation of food and snacks will appreciate the "hospitable" hosts. Those who engaged in "cooking", it is possible not to lose sight of the children, who are in an adjacent room.
• A more rational use of all the space bounded by the wall earlier. Along with the adherents of the "symbiotic" and there are opponents.

The disadvantages of the kitchen-studio include:

• When cooking, the smell from the kitchen area will spread throughout the room. Powerful extractor and location of kitchen units directly at the window (but not less than 40cm in order to prevent blowing a draft gas burners) can sometimes correct position. Invisible particles of soot and fat will be deposited in the upholstered furniture in the adjacent area. Clear sofas and chairs from this "raid" will be difficult.
  The sound of the kitchen appliances are not isolated from the "rest" zone. Blender kettle boil, refrigerator, dishwasher etc.. can interfere with a friendly chat or co-browsing TV.
• Aesthetics. Working moments, type of waste and peelings during cooking or unwashed dishes in the sink can spoil the impression of guests, if someone pleases "wander in the light" early. Limited ability to use at night, when combined with the kitchen is a sitting area. Violation of someone's dream of moving sounds of pots and plates, that is not very nice.

plan kitchen - important nuances

With proper and harmonious placement of furniture and work surfaces, even the size of a small kitchen can be reversed in its favor. Getting planning should be guided by the "golden rule": the location of the vertices 'Working triangle "(boards, sinks, refrigerator) from each other at a distance in the range from 60 to 300 cm. Before you decide on a design decision, as the creation of a kitchen-studio, it is necessary to weigh all the "pros" and "against", to take into account all the nuances. If resources permit, the studio is best suited for apartments, which will be able to combine it with a full dining room or living room, leaving the bedroom to relax a separate room or placing it on the second floor. The owners of the small "odnushek" this variant to "stretch", although this is often the only way to get a cozy and comfortable space. If there are children in the same room this way is not acceptable, or zoning should be carried out by a partition. Children must have their own "corner", their personal space.

With the help of modern kitchen appliances and appliances can virtually negate the penetration of smells and sounds by electrical, but timely aesthetic cleaning kitchen area and remains with the working surfaces man. In addition to their own desires, finance, choice of interior design and will need to undergo a series of approvals documentation to redevelop the premises (especially for apartments in high-rise buildings). Existing building codes and restrictions on the location of "wet" areas (water supply, a sink, sink) on the "dry" the neighborhood has not been canceled, as well as the postponement of the gas equipment (island style layout, stove in the middle of the kitchen). Therefore, to avoid trouble with the neighbors from above and below and issues when selling an apartment is better to redesign the document officially.

Also worth to consider questions hoods for multi-family homes. Refer to a professional designer who can give competent advice. Make a kitchen-studio plan with the exact location of measurements of water sources, gas and electricity. It is not necessary to select the zone "with reserve". Pay attention to the window sill, which can be expanded to turn into a workplace or in a recreational area and storage space. From all unused should be abandoned. To you go to visit a little, and you're used to snacking in the café, so it is necessary to review the functionality of the studio area in the direction of complete relaxation or work. Use of online scheduler capabilities to choose the furniture, flooring, color and others. kitchen layout is:

• linear;
• parallel;
• corner;
• island;
• combined.

The linear layout

When the straight-line method of planning the whole kitchen is located along one of the walls (in a straight line). The most "gentle" type of communication plan, as is most often the default location of the plates and sinks in the apartments is linear. If properly position the working surfaces and kitchen appliances, everything will be in the "steps" of availability. just one wall and left a lot of space for a dining area (table and chairs) will be busy. For most common small kitchens (up to 2.5m) is the only real option headset accommodation. It should consider the questions of "rupture" of the workers cleaning zones, hob and fridge for at least 40 cm from each other built-in wardrobes. This is done for security reasons: on the cooking stove will not be exposed to cleaning sprays, refrigerators will not be heated by the heat plate, washed products fold right there, they do not have to carry through the kitchen on the table, etc. If the size of the kitchen allows, apart from the "gentleman's set": refrigerator, stove, cleaning; add various additional systems and techniques: aerogrill, microwave, wine fridge or washing machine (depending on the availability of her place in the bathroom).

parallel planning

In parallel (alternate) type layout, kitchen is located in the kitchen at two opposite walls. It is used mainly in the presence of a passing cuisine or having a window opposite the door. Against one wall is generally arranged sink and stove, the opposite refrigerator and freezer. The minimum distance between the rows is not less than 1.2 meters, in order to be able to open simultaneously lockers on both sides and safely take the pan from the oven. Visually, "expand" room, so it makes sense to think about a plan owners elongated kitchens. The most significant drawback is that the presence of the person at the stove while cooking form "plugs" in the movement to the fridge for a beer while watching a football match. Therefore, over the parallel option plan is worth considering the owners kitchens, where there is enough space. Also, in order to visually expand a room kitchen, clean the upper hanging lockers on both sides. If this is not possible, it is necessary to order them or hang light-colored on one side only.

corner layout

plan views, in which the kitchen will be located at the perpendicular wall is angled. There are two types of angular layout:

• L-shaped (when set is positioned along +2 angular walls);
• U-shape (along the walls 3).

By itself, the type of layout is very easy to use, ergonomic and functional. More suitable for square kitchen. When the U-shaped arrangement, there are 3 working surface, virtually "on all sides." Best of all U-shaped asymmetrical type of plan "will join" in the kitchen, which has a wall of complex layout (niches, window) or when the kitchen itself has the shape of a trapezoid or a polygon. When the location of the cabinets to 3 sides must couple of meters "living space" between them. Also use the sink, in the corner is not very convenient.

The island layout

This "island" can be arranged in the kitchen, with an area of ​​not less than 20 sq.m. When implementing this type of planning is one of the work areas will be located in the middle of the kitchen space. Strictly speaking, the island will be a layout just two types. The second working zone will be positioned at the walls of straight or U-shaped type. Currently, the island layout is very popular. Area will have to sacrifice, but it is in this type of kitchen-studio "playing" their best foot forward, and properly selected interior creates a luxurious impression. If the central zone is a ceramic hob, extractor hood for the "atmosphere" of the island located in the middle of the room, so you should think about how to hide the ventilation ducts on the ceiling. The dimensions of the "island" part, as a rule, do not exceed 1200h1200mm to be able to reach any corner without making unnecessary movements. Sometimes, as the island is considered a dining table or serving trolley wheel. In this case, the countertop is used as a work surface and stationary table equipped with a system built-in drawers and shelves for storage of the desired items. Peninsular draft - is any kind of plan with an available complementary projection of the working surface or enclosure with cooking hobs, sink. The protruding surface is sometimes used as a bar counter or a serving table.

room layout

Combined or free layout is a mix of very different types of kitchen planning with regard to taste and desires of the owners. Modern minimalism prevails in the interior of the studio apartments, but some people want to move away from the "canons" and customize a strict style layout. For the most spacious kitchens can accommodate the "circle" cuisine, which is a "island" with a linear placement of the headset, bent in a semicircle.

zoning space

Made by the rules of "competent" zoning premises will create a feeling of comfort, accessibility and appropriateness of the location of furniture and built-in appliances. Boundaries between the zones can be both visual (only with furniture arrangement, color or illumination) and physical (septum biofireplaces, aquariums, arches, columns, etc.). There are the following ways of combining two rooms:

• With the help of color combinations, using the contrasts;
• Using a variety of finishing materials in the design of kitchens and relaxation areas;
• The division of zones using the arrangement of furniture;
• Floor arrangement (podium) and ceilings at different levels of the zones;
• Counter, column partition or lower arch as a separator;
• "Live" partition of indoor plants;
• The division of zones with a large aquarium or long fireplace;
• Differentiation by means of lighting.

The apartment has a combined kitchen "highlight" will be exactly the zoning and design. The central place in even the smallest apartment, "Khrushchev" will be the kitchen and hall (seating area). You need to determine where they spend most of the time owners of premises (kitchen, living room) and Depending on this, to increase the area of ​​permanent residence, leaving the minimum necessary and furniture another zone. With the help of retractable screens and partitions cuisine make fully, partially insulated or open. In carrying out the separation zones should be remembered that, in contrast to two separate rooms, which can It is designed in a different style, and now the kitchen will be a "logical" extension of the living room and on the contrary.

Useful advice. Seating area and cooking in the interior should match one style, and the interior, while the walls and floors of the kitchen and the living room are made of completely different materials, different color schemes. The border areas should be clearly "indicated" that the guests did not have doubts whether the sink or in the living room chair with a TV in the kitchen.

Zoning by means of furniture

One of the easiest ways to zoning, in which no additional erected arches and walls. On the role of the "border" will cope with high sofa, flat-backed, or a couple of chairs placed side by side. On the part of the natural cuisine will baffle area or desk, located along the demarcation line, and made of the same materials that were used in the decoration of the studio. This method is useful for those who frequently change the design of the apartment. Partition between the room and the kitchen at any time can be moved or replaced with something else.

Zoning via finishing various surfaces

The original division of the zones will be in the decoration of walls kitchen tile, stone, stucco and the walls of the living room nice silk wallpaper. The floor in the living room is covered with laminate, parquet and tiles in the kitchen. Whatever materials are not shared areas, it will be the original decision. Selection of colors should be done in accordance with the conditions of natural light.

Multilevel ceiling and floor

Demarcation of areas with the help of drop floor height classic method that has been used at all times and was setting "accents" in the room. There is a twofold perspective on what needs to be higher. Some "traditional" pick up the kitchen, citing the fact that it is easier to move down a full plate for the guests. To determine what will be on the podium, to decide the hosts apartment, but earlier at the height of the zone located more "important" on the status of the owners, a kind of "throne" area of ​​the rule of personal comfort public. This separation effectively complement the two or three-tiered ceiling from plasterboard, textiles or PVC film, with embedded lights, mirrors the contours of the zones and the color transition. Podium possible to simultaneously arrange, as a place to store all things, and its degree of illumination used to tie the lower zone. It is worth remembering that the zoning of the floor or ceiling are possible only if sufficient height rooms.

interior walls

Interior walls are fixed (walls, arches) and quick (sliding, folding type of screens, with built-in window or transom, etc.). The material execution of the tree and GCR to stylish metal racks with tempered glass shelves in the high-tekovskom style or fabric screens. The portable partitions (the screen) advantage is their mobility. Separate or displace any zone just rearranging the partition will not be difficult. Choosing the screen cloth to separate the kitchen area is not necessary, as the fabric absorbs odors. Then fit the screen or simple PVC lattice made of wood. Dividing wall with window is placed just to show the boundaries of sites and ensure the penetration of light in the other zone. Very interesting and unusual looks "colored" partition, which the parties and the texture will be solved in one color scheme as the area of ​​each side.

Useful advice. The main requirement: divider should should not "load" the space, do not be cumbersome. Unusual and looks beautiful modern Radius partition (rounded wooden and glass), which, with its smooth lines complements the space cozy.

With the help of lighting

With the help of lighting can achieve beautiful visual separation zones without using other methods. Here there are the laws of their design: kitchen work surface should be well lit, as cook in the shadows uncomfortable and visually poorly lit room "hides" a sense of volume premises. Above the center of the kitchen, you can hang a modern stylish chandelier above the dividing bar to fix a ceiling light and wall cabinets to use spotlights. The most remote from the window area must also be sufficiently bright light.

Useful advice. Experimenting with different light sources of varying intensity and their location on the level sex, and you can pick up the necessary "light" for the work, and "cozy" lighting, suitable for any mood. In addition, the play of light can visually enlarge a small kitchen space, which is often very limited, for example, in the apartments of prefabricated houses.
