Apartment owners often face a small problem in the form of a small kitchen, the windows of which, moreover, face the north side.

An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , told what furniture to furnish such a room with in order to hide its shortcomings.

So, despite the fact that dark furniture has a lot of fans due to its stylish, interesting and aesthetic appearance, it cannot be called universal - cabinets and tables decorated in dark tones do not suit every interior.

In a small and dark kitchen, such a set will look unfavorable, only increasing its gloominess and completely depriving the opportunity to create a cozy room.

Instead, you should pay attention to light cabinets. They can be described as light, airy and not oppressive.

Moreover, the furniture does not necessarily have to be white or beige – you can choose any light shade, for example, mint, muted yellow or soft blue.

But if you are categorically against light furniture, the solution to the problem will be high-quality artificial lighting.

In addition to the chandelier placed in the center of the ceiling, you should think about spotlights, as well as lighting for the work and dining areas.
