All these and other nuances will be discussed in detail in this article.

Like any interiors, the classic white kitchen has a number of special characteristics, among which there are both positive and negative. The pluses of white kitchen in the interior include the following nuances.

• Direct Linear Headsets involve putting all cabinets along one of the walls of the kitchen. This option is very suitable for small rooms, since it leaves most of the space unoccupied. However, to accommodate all the utensils in this kitchen, you usually can not do without hanging cabinets, which are also located in a row above the floor. If storage facilities located on the floor usually have monolithic doors, then hanging cabinets are often equipped with glass inserts.

• Corner White Headsets suitable for larger kitchens. A feature of such furniture is that it is located along two adjacent walls. The corner compartment is often used to house the sink. However, in the case of the classics such a headset should be planned very carefully, since it requires observing the symmetry inherent in this style.

• The owners of a large kitchen can arrange a white suite in two lines opposite each other. This layout assumes that the width of the space between the two rows will be at least 120 cm. Symmetry in this case is easier to maintain, therefore, as an option for the classical style, this arrangement is quite suitable.

• Kitchen with island allows you to distinguish between the workspace, which is a very convenient technique for combined kitchen and dining room combined in one room. Also, a convenient approach to the island part of the kitchen makes it easier to maintain order in such a room.

If there are several levels, pay attention to the fact that the transition between levels can overlap in form with the elements of the headset.

• The apron should not blend in tone with a white headset. It is decorated in either brighter or darker colors. At the same time, natural stone, tiled mosaics and painting elements can be used for its decoration.

• Hoods in classic kitchens are usually cleaned in a special box, stylized as a set. However, you can order ready-made models, the case of which is made in accordance with the style and does not allow this kitchen attribute to attract too much attention.

• If you design a kitchen with a white suite in full accordance with the traditional classical concept, then it is worth choosing only matte textures. However, for more modern versions of the classics, a white headset can be made with gloss elements.

• It is also worth considering the color of the countertops, complementing the kitchen with accessories. Sometimes it does not differ in shade from the entire headset. There are also products whose worktops are darker than just a couple of tones. But there are contrasting options with a working platform of dark stone or even with a rich color. In this case, the color of the countertop should overlap with at least one of the accessories for complete harmony.

• The kitchen window in the classic interior may have various curtains. Shorter models with folds like Roman curtains are appropriate, and long simple models from two types of fabric are also suitable. Textiles should combine light and dark fabric, and dark can become a color accent.
