IKEA-2019: 8 Ideas for Kitchen from the Russian Catalog

We continue our review of the new IKEA catalog. Today's focus is on kitchens and dining areas. The color palette has noticeably darkened, and there are more solutions for compact storage.

But the most important thing to note is how differently IKEA kitchens can look. This year they all went into the countryside style and now resemble cozy English farmhouse kitchens. We're telling you about the bright new products.

Kitchen Faucet INSHEN

A faucet with a side handle — something in between classic and modern models, exactly what you need for a kitchen in the countryside style. The new model can be chosen in chrome, copper color or with a pull-out spout, as shown in the photo, which is very practical.

Basin HAVSÅS

We told you about the basin with a protruding front panel when announcing new products from the American brand catalog. By the way, it pairs perfectly with the INSHEN faucet.

Bowl ENTYDIG

Colorful dishes — another highlight of the new catalog. Salad, pink, blue and gray tones of plates and bowls will decorate a white or monochrome kitchen. And eating from such dishes is at least visually more pleasant to the eye.

Suspended Lamp OTTAVA

Another new item in the catalog is the classic IKEA lamp OTTAVA in black. Strictly speaking, this lamp can be hung in living rooms, hallways, or bathrooms, but it looks especially great above the dining table.

Shelf LIATORP

If you add glass doors to this shelf, it becomes a bookcase — exactly how the model was originally intended.

But looking at solutions from the new IKEA catalog, it turns out that kitchenware looks great on the shelves of this shelf and LIATORP is ideal for a kitchen and dining room. Maybe it's all due to the new dark olive color?

IKEA 365+ Jars

A new item for those tired of standard shapes. These new glass jars are perfect for storing powders or treats. Buy all three models at once — it looks more interesting that way.

Kitchen Island VADHOLMA

Many designers recommend finding a place for a kitchen island even on a small kitchen, as it's more convenient and practical than a regular dining set. In any case, such a mini-island is now available in the IKEA range.

By the way, the island can be purchased without a hook and added later if it turns out you can't do without one.

Trays MEDFER

The set includes four trays with different patterns on each side. The new trays are just 14 centimeters long: not much fits on them, but they're perfect for placing a cup of tea or arranging sliced cheese, ham or fruits.
