In terms of color rendering, matte surfaces look better. But many are still convinced that glossy surfaces are richer, and therefore better.
When choosing kitchen furniture, it's not just aesthetics. Kitchens are often small and dark, and all of this also needs to be taken into account when designing the interior.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told which facades are better to choose for the kitchen - glossy or matte.
What to consider
When choosing, you need to pay attention to the following conditions.
Kitchen area. If it is small, it would be better to choose a shiny facade to increase the space. However, matte facades are universal.
Lighting: Large windows and a south-facing view will make the glossy kitchen sparkle.
In addition, you need to take into account the interior style and personal taste.
