Table by the window in the kitchen: features and design options

A table in the kitchen is one of the most important elements that should be present in this room. Without it, it loses its meaning. But what if the kitchen is very small in size, and the owners really want it to be warm, cozy and multifunctional? Do not be upset. Many options have been invented for a long time that will help to easily solve this problem, one of which is setting the table near the window.

First of all, you need to decide for what purpose you are setting your table. He can be:

• chopping;

• dinner;

• combined variants of the two previous varieties.

Then you need to choose the type of material from which the table will be made. You should also consider the layout of your apartment and its design. There are Khrushchevs, and there are Stalin’s - they’re especially “not going around”.

A window seat is a good fit for this. Designers have long learned how to use this space for business. If you try and think through everything carefully, you can arrange everything so that you get a kitchen-living room.

The dining area or work area located in the immediate vicinity of the window is always convenient. The table, albeit small, by the window opening in the kitchen will allow you to see everything that happens on the street, and you will always be on the bright side of the room. So, we will consider some options.

• You have distributed your entire kitchen set and multi-functional shelves in a small and long area of ​​the kitchen space, but do not know where to put the dining table? You can install it in the middle, but then you completely close the passage along the cabinets. What to do? Use the windowsill! This will simply be done if the depth of the window unit reaches 40 cm. In this opening you will securely fix the table, which will protrude slightly from the window space. Behind him, four people can easily fit in at once.

• What a beautiful view of the kitchen you get if you arrange a dining area where there will be a bench, set along the window opening. This option significantly saves space. Inside the seat, you can arrange a place to store cans and other utensils.

• It also happens that the only space for a cutting kitchen table is a window opening. Here and install a comfortable countertop. This solution will decorate even the smallest room. And if you go further, you can combine the working area and the dining room.

• Another great option is a bar along the window. It is suitable for those who lead a very active lifestyle.

The kitchen in the "Stalin" or "Khrushchev" needs to be equipped in such a way that it is cozy and beautiful. A window opening is a kind of reserve that can expand the space or zoning it using clever design ideas.

• A good option for decoration is curtains or curtains. If you have arranged a dining area near the window or directly in the window opening, then these elements should be short (to get less dirty). Also, Roman curtains will be appropriate to look here. Country style, on the contrary, will require a lot of fabric. And in the case of minimalism, choose Japanese curtains that open quickly.

• Upholstery and tablecloth must match the color scheme with curtains or curtains (the same goes for pillows).

• You can complement a specific interior with bright fresh fruits.to be placed in a beautiful vase. Put it in the center of the table built into the window opening.

• Hi-tech style provides for the placement of various transparent glass elements, and if you chose a rustic style, then decorate the free kitchen space with painted plates.

• Bar counter, table, which with their main part hold onto the window opening, can be continued and “stretched” along the free wall. So you increase the dining area.

The durability of the entire structure as a whole depends on the quality of the surface of the table. Therefore, pay close attention to the material of its manufacture.

• Natural wood is always environmentally friendly and practical.

• The most common materials are particleboard and MDF.

• Transparent and rather thick sheets of glass or plastic are suitable for those who hold futuristic views.

• Acrylic has a huge resemblance to natural stone, so it is quite practical and high quality.

• Another type of artificial stone is agglomerate. This material is high strength.

• Granite or marble are natural materials. And that's it.

• A stainless steel countertop is used for high-tech styles, but is very moody in the care.

• To cover wooden and glass surfaces, ceramic tiles and mosaics are used.
