Proper placement of furniture and appliances in the kitchen is of great importance.

But mistakes made when placing certain items can make the kitchen uncomfortable and dark.

The most common mistakes people make are when installing the refrigerator and kitchen cabinets.

What error are we talking about?

Many kitchens are quite small. The small area forces people to put furniture in any free niche.

However, there is a space in the room that must remain absolutely free.

We are talking about the area near the window. Many people place the refrigerator and cabinets so that the opening is partially closed.

This is a gross mistake, because of which little light enters the kitchen. As a result, the room becomes dark and uncomfortable.

When placing a refrigerator and kitchen unit, avoid even partially closing the window.

Moreover, there is no need to fill even the niches to the left and right of the opening. It is desirable that the wall on which the window is located remains completely open.

If this condition is met, the kitchen will always remain light, spacious and comfortable.
