Features of the kitchen room in a house made of wood
As in any residential building, a kitchen occupies a special place in a wooden house. Since this room often performs several tasks, its design should be functional, practical and comfortable.
As a rule, the kitchen is divided into several zones:
- the working area that serves for cooking;
- lunch space;
- quite often, the kitchen also performs the function of the living room.
Based on these features, so that the stay in the kitchen room is comfortable and convenient, when designing, some important aspects should be taken into account:
- The ventilation, lighting system, the location of plumbing, refrigerator and slabs are of particular importance in the premises of the kitchen of a wooden house. Thus, it is recommended to equip the plate with a good hood or place near the windows. The refrigerator is advisable to put in a darkened place.
- In the event that the house was built not so long ago, having communications, it is necessary to take into account the possible process of the “subsidence” of the structure. For these considerations, pipe and wires are placed on a special frame. Therefore, thinking over the interior of the kitchen room, you should take care to make these communications as invisible as possible.
- It is also necessary to take measures aimed at the safety of wooden material. The kitchen room is a place of high humidity. The tree, as you know, does not have resistance to moisture and is quickly destroyed under its influence. For this reason, the material should be processed with special compounds. This measure will contribute to the safety of the tree, facilitate the care of it. In addition, it will make the material fire resistant.
- Wood processing will increase the service life of building material, but it will not be able to protect it from damage due to the constant ingestion of fat, products and moisture during cooking. Therefore, the apron - the most subject to this effect, should be protected using the finish.
You can distinguish several of the most optimal options for such a finish. Consider them in more detail.

Types of apron finish
Apron is called part of the surface of the wall in the kitchen, which is located between the hood and the shell. Those. This longitudinal zone, which is located at the level of the working segment, where the hostess is engaged in cooking, washing, etc. You can make a high -quality finish of the apron from the following materials:
- Orgage - a material that is characterized by a fairly high strength and a transparent structure. The last feature will help make the interior of the kitchen in a wooden house more original. For example, under a plexiglass, you can place a spectacular backlight.
- To protect the apron, you can also use tissue masonry. This material is easy to care for, retains external attractiveness even after several years of operation. In addition, the tile has another advantage - a relatively low cost.
- Another rather spectacular decoration option is a mirror. The interior, complemented by such an element, will look quite profitable and extraordinary. In addition, the mirror will visually increase the kitchen space. This option is suitable for small rooms. But the lack of this material should also be noted. The mirror must be constantly and carefully care for. Moreover, such material is subject to scratching. Therefore, care should be neat, otherwise such a decoration will fail prematurely.
Lighting of the kitchen room
An important point in the design of the kitchen in a wooden house is lighting. Since the tree has the ability to absorb the sun's rays, it is necessary to provide extensive lighting. If we are talking about a kitchen, having a small meter, in this case one large window or two medium -sized openings will be enough.
When creating artificial illumination, you should take care of the presence of scattering and point light. Dispersive lighting is achieved by installing lamps into the ceiling. Point light should illuminate the main zones of the kitchen. For example, a place for cooking or a dining table. This effect can be achieved by installing wall sconces or a hanging lamp.
We develop the layout of the room
There are 5 options in accordance with which the layout of the kitchen room in the house made of wood can be performed:
- The first option is a linear layout that involves placing furniture along the wall. It is suitable for a narrow room. It must be taken into account that the working surface in its length should not exceed 3.5 meters. Otherwise, it will be difficult to move in such a room.
- If the kitchen does not differ in large sizes, the best option would be a L-shaped layout. This option will make it possible to use the corner space as practical as possible. In this place you can place a sink.
- When decorating a kitchen in a wooden house, a parallel layout can also be used. It involves the placement of working zones on the opposite sides of the room. Such a design solution will ensure more free movement around the room. With this type of planning, it is recommended to install a sink and a plate near one wall, and place a refrigerator under another.
- If the kitchen room has a sufficient footage, it is better to apply the P-shaped layout.
- The last option is called island. It can be created by using each of the previously listed options, but with one feature. In the center of the kitchen you need to place the table.

Style solutions for the kitchen in a wooden house
Repair of the kitchen in a wooden house has its own requirements for the design of the internal style of the room. Consider the most suitable ways to create an interior:

Of course, when creating a modern interior, you can not do without the use of plastic and glass, but their presence in the design should be minimal.
3. A rather curious solution will be quite curious, imitating a hunting house. In this case, the main material of the design is also a tree. A stylish feature that characterizes this direction is the presence of a fireplace laid out by natural stone. Furniture can be stylized under the old days or modern type, but in dark, strict colors. For lighting, it is quite possible to confine yourself to one lamp in the center of the ceiling and two sconces. The hunting style does not provide for bright lighting. Accessories - stuffed animals, deer horns, gun, etc. will give a special saturation to the style.
4. Country style involves the design of the room with interior details that differ in the most natural look. The roughness of the surface and the uneven lines are acceptable. Such a design is characterized by the stylization of interior items under the old days. At the same time, the absence of any frills and jewelry is welcome. When making a choice in favor of this style, it should be borne in mind that the massive furniture that is characteristic of country, most successfully will look in a spacious room. Therefore, if we are talking about a small kitchen, do not dwell on this design decision.

The most successful direction is reflected by kitchen sets with a facade of ceramics, natural wood. No less suitable material for making a headset in a classic style will be a nut, oak, red tree and rosewood wood. Additional stylistic elements can be an overhead ornament and corrugated cornices.

To complete the composition, kitchen furniture can be decorated with gilded or bronze fittings.
The kitchen is hot
A small kitchen in a wooden house may well perform two functions at once - the working area and living room. The space can be divided into zones using a multi -colored flooring. The kitchen can also be highlighted by creating a small podium. Lighting will help to divide the room. For example, the kitchen can be equipped with a brighter light, and the living room is given to the twilight. When choosing furniture for the living room, you should support the style direction of the kitchen space.
