Great renovation of a 5 sqm "killed" kitchen in a standard apartment

Designers from Carton Group decorated a three-room apartment for a young family with a child in a brick house built in 1970. The previous layout was outdated with low ceilings and "killed" renovation. Therefore, the changes were significant — the kitchen was merged with the living room, the cabinet was installed in a "P" shape and sliding partitions were provided, as gas is available in the building.

"At the planning stage, we realized that the original small kitchen could only function as storage and food preparation, so we tried to maximize all space for placing necessary appliances and storage systems. The room configuration determined the choice of a custom-made cabinet of individual dimensions," — the project authors explain.

On five square meters, they were able to not only place all the necessary appliances — from stove with oven and dishwasher to refrigerator, but also leave a small space for a window seat with a small storage area underneath near the radiator.

Scandinavian style was chosen as the basis for the interior, which was made more dynamic and colorful in terms of color. Customers were important to use as natural and hypoallergenic materials as possible, including window sills made of solid oak, hypoallergenic paint for walls, and fabric suspended ceilings.

For the backsplash, they chose beautiful patterned tiles that set the atmosphere for the entire kitchen interior.

To increase functionality and decorative appeal, a kitchen cabinet was installed in the niche and open shelves were hung for beautiful dishes and decor.

Gas is available in the apartment, so it was necessary to isolate the kitchen from the living room without blocking natural light flow. Therefore, a glass sliding partition was used as a sliding door.
