White glossy kitchens are the subject of much debate among both design experts and ordinary users.

However, everyone agrees on one thing - it is very beautiful, but not very practical. The expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", designer Yulia Tychino, decided to look into this issue and study all the advantages and disadvantages of such a solution.

Let's start with the pleasant part - with the advantages that a white glossy kitchen has.

This kitchen set is undoubtedly characterized by its versatility – it fits into any interior, which means that you will not need the help of professionals to fit the furniture into an existing interior.

In addition, white has many shades, is easily combined with other colors and has a positive effect on mood, as it is associated with cleanliness and order.

You will definitely not get tired of this headset over time.

Finally, glossy, light surfaces reflect light, increasing space and making the kitchen feel more spacious and airy.

Let's move on to the cons: if the kitchen is completely white, it can look like a hospital ward. The interior can become boring, dull and even a little oppressive. But this problem can be solved by adding bright accents to the decor.

Owners of kitchens with windows facing the sunny side should be prepared for the fact that over time the furniture may turn yellow. Therefore, it is important to choose high-quality materials for the furniture and thick curtains.

Glossy surfaces shine strongly, and can reflect lamps and other objects in the room. This feature is often irritating and brings disharmony to the interior.

Finally, if a low-quality film was used, it will likely quickly become covered in scratches and fingerprints. In addition, a glossy set will attract dust more than a matte one.
