Classics are always in fashion and kitchen furniture is no exception. There are three main directions in the traditional design of the kitchen: “Classic”, “Provence” and “Country”. The classic style has impeccable elegance and light raid of aristocracy. This is a very cozy option. A distinctive feature of this style is spectacular milling, patina on the facades and a rich selection of additional decorative elements – pilasters, balustrades, cornices.
Traditional classic kitchens are made of natural wood, but if you want to save, you can choose facades from a milled MDF with a “under wood” film or in paint.
Wood texture is an integral part of classical designs. The possibilities of decorating a kitchen in a classic style are almost endless. This style looks great both in huge kitchens and in small in area and always creates a unique, cozy atmosphere.
Provence style is very close to the “classic”, but has a number of differences. First of all, it is alien to the pretentiousness and pompom. In Provence, the ease of the Mediterranean breeze and the green meadows of the French province is felt in Provence. Furniture in this style is also traditionally wooden or close to the type of natural tree. Patina is also an integral element of Provence, but unlike the classics, where it is used to create gilding, the effect of the “wrinkles” of the woods of the woody array has survived at least a hundred years.
Also, this style perfectly complement elements from natural or artificial stone. It can be used to design countertops, walls and floor. In the kitchen in the style of “Provence” you can always “hear” somewhere in the distance the muffled noise of the sea.
“Country” – universal village style. This design goes into the distant past with its roots. A distinctive feature of this style is simplicity and convenience. A massive ceiling beams and wall decoration and floor in natural shades serve as an integral element of the decor. To do this, use decors made of natural and imitating natural materials (stone, rough plaster, wallpaper for painting).
Separately distinguish “Country in American”. Wood with “rough” milling mills, prefabricated frame facades from boards, simplicity in the interior distinguish this style from the rest. A rag forgotten on the table will not look sloppy, and break the composition.
One of the obligatory elements is the curtains. Light cotton or linen fabrics with a rustic pattern or “in a cell” are suitable. Another feature of the American “country” the presence of a table-star. It is usually placed in the center of the room and serves for cutting and cutting products. Often the sink is installed in it.
