For those who want to diversify their own interior and are not afraid of bright solutions, designers recommend taking a closer look at the burgundy shades. They are noble, talking about the good taste of the owner. But the most important thing is that such an interior is unique and stylish.
Advantages and disadvantages
Even before the start of repair work or buying a burgundy color kitchen, you need to understand what advantages this choice provides. It will be nice to figure out what troubles can await you.
Advantages
- Practicality. This is one of the most important parameters when choosing a color for the kitchen. After all, it is here that life is constantly in full swing, food is being prepared and the whole family is going to the table. Avoid contamination will not succeed. But thanks to the rich burgundy color, they will not catch the eye and spoil the whole picture.
- Relevance. Shades of burgundy have long become classics. Therefore, you can not be afraid that in a couple of years your interior will become unfashionable or will be perceived as a relic of the past.
- Energetics. Entering such a bright, but at the same time calm kitchen, you literally feel its strong energy. This color is chosen by people who are balanced, confident. In such an interior there is no hint of pathos or a desire to please a capricious fashion. Such kitchens look very respectable. Moreover, it is not gloomy and monotonous, but very bright and interesting.
- Versatility. In addition to choosing a color, it is important to determine the style of the future kitchen. This tone fits perfectly in almost all directions and styles. You will only need to decide which one is closer to your family.
- The feeling of comfort. Burgundy interiors seem to envelop you with their warmth. It is very pleasant to be in them, there is no feeling of discomfort. Calm tones do not irritate the eye and do not bother with time.
- Compatibility. If you decide to make the kitchen in burgundy shades, then you should think about what color will be her companion. After all, it is important to observe a sense of proportion. If you execute both walls, and a floor, and a kitchen set in one color, then the result will disappoint you. Instead of a stylish and beautiful kitchen, you get a burgundy tasteless room with a slurred interior.
The choice of auxiliary color does not cause trouble. Burgundy goes well with other colors and shades.
disadvantages
- If you go too far with burgundy in the kitchen, then the interior will be annoying and may even negatively affect the state of the nervous system. Use the golden rule of all designers. In the interior, a combination of three colors is acceptable in a ratio of 60% - the main, 30% - additional, 10% - accents.
- If the kitchen is small, then it is better to use burgundy as an accent. A large amount of this color will make the space smaller. But even in large kitchens, designers are not advised to abuse this dark shade.
- The need for quality lighting. If the kitchen is fully burgundy, you need to make sure that the room is well lit. Think of several lighting scenarios for various purposes. Otherwise, the kitchen will seem smaller and give the impression of a dark, uncomfortable room.
- If two dark shades are selected as the main (for example, burgundy and black), then visually the room will look small and gloomy.
But all these shortcomings can be easily avoided if you correctly think about the color scheme and lighting at the design stage.
Types and placement of kitchen units
In many respects, both the look and the way of placing a kitchen set is dictated by the size of the kitchen itself. In standard buildings, it’s quite difficult to come up with something unusual and unique in its configuration and size, since quadrature will simply not allow this to be done. In large non-standard apartments, owners often encounter another problem - how to correctly place all the items so that the kitchen does not seem empty, but not overload it.
Consider the main types of kitchen sets and how to place them.
Straight
One of the simplest and most unpretentious. Both the upper and lower modules are located along one of the walls. For burgundy kitchens, both the embodiment of the entire headset in one color is acceptable, as well as different shades for the upper and lower tiers.
Direct kitchen is concise. With this layout, it is not difficult to place other interior items in the same room. After all, the kitchen can not do without a refrigerator or dining table. To increase storage space, one or two modules can be made in the form of a pencil case, that is, the design is a complete cabinet for storing dishes and other accessories, and not two separate drawers at different levels. By the way, a refrigerator can be hidden in one of these cases.
Corner
The most popular and common option. Its popularity is explained by practicality and functionality. Here, the so-called “working triangle” is conveniently placed: a refrigerator, a sink, a stove. In this case, everything will be convenient. For burgundy corner kitchens, top and bottom in different colors are also acceptable.
If you do not want to make a kitchen in two shades, but at the same time strive to give it uniqueness, then you can look for interesting plain facades with beautiful ornaments or frames.Also, a combination of burgundy and glass doors looks original. It can be frosted glass or transparent with a beautiful pattern.
Another feature of the corner kitchen can be radius facades. They are a curved surface with smooth lines. Such designs are used on extreme modules.
They allow you to smooth out sharp corners and give the headset a streamlined shape.
No top drawers
Such options in our kitchens can be found infrequently. But the more interesting it will be to realize a similar design in your own kitchen. If the lower tier is enough for you to place all the necessary accessories and utensils, then you can safely refuse the top.
One long shelf or several can take their place if they are at different levels. Mistresses note the convenience of such a layout. Spices, herbs and other trifles necessary for cooking are placed on this shelf with comfort. In this case, the room will look more spacious.
Island
This option for placing burgundy kitchen is suitable for owners of large rooms or a studio kitchen. In a small room it will be difficult to place the headset and the island so that it is comfortable and beautiful.
The island kitchen consists of wall modules and an “island” placed in the middle of the room. On it, at the discretion of the hostess, a stove, work surface or sink can be located. It all depends on the parameters of the premises and personal preferences.
Good color combinations
When choosing a burgundy kitchen of companion flowers, she maybe a few.
- White. This combination can be safely attributed to the classic. It is only worth considering that if the room is dark and poorly lit during the day (for example, it is on the shadow side), then white should be chosen as the main one.
- Beige. Burgundy goes well with pastel shades. It can be not only beige, but also vanilla, pale pink, pearl. Such combinations gravitate towards a romantic style.
- Dark tones. The combination of wenge and burgundy color looks good. The combination is not as gloomy and gloomy as with pure black. In this case, it is better to give preference to matte textures. Black and burgundy kitchen also has the right to exist, but it will be necessary to carefully consider the lighting.
To prevent the room from becoming gloomy, in addition to the main light source, provide one or more additional ones. Their role can be performed by spotlights, LED backlight.
- Grey. The combination of a warm burgundy and cold gray gives an interesting contrast. Such a kitchen can not be called too bright, but it certainly will not become boring.
Style selection
As already noted, the burgundy shade fits well in various styles and directions. But there are favorites among them.
- Classic. If we talk about burgundy color, then in the classic version it is the facades of the headset that can wear this pleasant shade. In this case, it should be a tree (or imitation under it). A respectable burgundy headset in a classic style must be supplemented with appropriate accessories. It can be made in bronze and have beautiful shapes and bends.
This also applies to handles on the doors of the headset, and curtains, if any.
- Modern. If you are tired of the stability and practicality of the classics, then take a look at this unusual and vibrant style. Glossy burgundy surfaces in combination with white will look very elegant. At the same time, you should adhere to clear lines.
- High tech. Contrary to popular belief, there is a place not only in steel, black and gray. Burgundy in this case can be an excellent color accent. This will only emphasize your non-trivial style and sense of taste.
- Art Deco. This pompous style is easy to implement in the kitchen, if you make a suite in a rich burgundy shade and add gold fittings.Textiles should also emphasize the festivity and beauty of a given style.
- Minimalism. For this style, it is better to choose acrylic facades. They succinctly fit into the interior, while you can completely do without fittings. The headset will give the impression of a wall. In it, it will be possible to hide all the kitchen utensils.
Design features in monochrome
If you do not want to combine many shades in the interior, then you should understand the features of the formation of the interior in monochrome. Do not think that with this design all the elements will be made in a single color. This is ugly and far from the concept of style, but you can still create the illusion of a stylish monochrome interior in burgundy tones.
First of all, think over the shade of the kitchen set itself and its texture. The surface of the facades can have a different texture: be smooth and glossy, imitate wood or resemble other natural materials. After that, think about the design of the walls, floor and ceiling. If the latter can remain white (this will not contradict the principles of monochrome in the interior), then for the floor and walls it is better to choose shades from the same color palette.
Refer to the color map, and you can easily find the right combination. If the kitchen is saturated burgundy, then the walls and floor should be neutral. For example, the wallpaper on the walls can be made in dirty pink colors, and the tiles on the floor have only streaks with the desired shade. This will allow not to turn the kitchen into one big burgundy stain, but to create a unique author's project with interesting details and solutions.
Textiles can play a big role. It should not be too much, but it is not worth neglecting it in the kitchen. Decorated in a single color scheme, curtains and upholstery of chairs will help create a single image. At the same time, their hue may coincide with the color of the headset or be contrasting.
In monochrome interiors, much attention is paid to textures, since it will not work to diversify it with bold and unexpected contrasts. Also, do not forget to think through all the smallest details.
The final appearance of your kitchen will depend on the selection of accessories, decorative elements, accessories (standing in full view).
