6 techniques that will make the kitchen visually more expensive | ivd.ru Design 29.11.202204.12.2022 In our material there are beautiful fittings, a high-quality mixer and a few more “markers” of financial investments in the kitchen interior. 1 Accent apron The apron is one of the most striking details in the kitchen interior. Do not skimp on materials for it and choose a pass-through design. Even if you like minimalism in the design, you can choose a dim tile, but with an interesting texture. Or use porcelain stoneware under marble. But it is better to abandon cheap plastic, self-adhesive film, poor-quality photo printing or outdated 3D effect. Since the apron has a small surface area, it can also be coated with expensive materials. In total, there will still be no big costs. 2 Beautiful fittings (or lack thereof) The fittings on the facades are a decoration, the final touch and the highlight of the interior in one bottle. Low-quality and frankly cheap handles will make even the most beautiful facades visually cheaper. That is why it is impossible to save on accessories in any case. Choose concise details: they look versatile and stylish. Or you can completely abandon the fittings in favor of minimalistic cabinets that open at the touch (such a move will also emphasize the modernity of the interior). 3 High-quality mixer and sink A wet area in the kitchen can also greatly spoil the overall impression of the interior. Therefore, it is worth choosing high-quality and beautiful plumbing. This is not only a contribution to visual appeal, but also a reserve for the future. A sink and a mixer of poor quality are more likely to fail, and in any case you will have to spend money on repairs. Therefore, it makes sense not to save at the start, but to immediately buy such a faucet and sink that will serve for a long time and regularly. 4 Discreet palette The color scheme plays an important role in the perception of space. Calm muted shades look more expensive. Bright and flashy, on the contrary, can look cheap, even if the repair required a lot of money. Carefully choose the colors for the decoration and facades of the headset. Even within the framework of one neutral gray, there are dozens of shades: some will look more successful, others less. A palette that is too dark looks spectacular, but it can visually overload the space, so it is important to provide good lighting and think through the details. Universal basic shades that look expensive: white, beige, powdery, light gray. 5 Built-in appliances The interior with built-in appliances looks visually more expensive and concise. When choosing a model, in addition to functionality, think about the color: the dishwasher or refrigerator can be hidden behind the facades, and the stove or hob will still be visible. Think about what effect you want to achieve: disguise the technique or, conversely, make it a bright contrast to the rest of the headset. In the second case, it is desirable that its color be repeated somewhere else: in the decor, fittings, furniture, etc. 6 Minimalistic design A minimalistic interior always looks neater and nobler than the one in which a lot of details are piled up. Therefore, carefully plan the storage in the kitchen and the filling of the headset, and also think about how not to store excess on the countertop. It is better to choose facades as simple as possible in design, and the emphasis, if necessary, can be made on the apron. On the cover design Natalia Chapilo. Photo: Evgeny Gnesin.
