The kitchen is the place where we cook food, communicate with family and friends over a cup of tea. Therefore, it is important that the interior in this room is not only beautiful, but also functional.

However, when creating it, people regularly make mistakes that reduce comfort and functionality. This article discusses the most common mistakes in kitchen interiors. You need to know about them before you make them.

Lack of light

One of the most common mistakes in the kitchen interior is the lack of light. The kitchen is primarily a working space, so it should be well lit. It is recommended to use several light sources, including ceiling lights, work surface lighting, and lamps above the table. And you need to think about all this before starting the renovation, so that you can do the wiring in advance.

Wrong choice of materials

When choosing materials for the kitchen, it is important to consider their practicality and functionality. For example, for work surfaces and floors, it is better to use materials that are easy to clean and do not require special care. For example, wood is a stylish solution, but it absorbs fat and water, and dyes instantly penetrate its structure, leaving stains.

Incorrect planning

Before renovation, it is important to plan the arrangement of the room according to needs. If you do not do this, after the renovation you may be surprised to find that cooking in a new beautiful kitchen is a real challenge.
The work area should be comfortable, and the refrigerator and oven should be located so that you can easily get food. It is also important to consider the size of the kitchen and the amount of furniture so as not to overload the space.

Poorly organized storage

Another common mistake is the lack of storage space. Proper storage organization will help maintain order and reduce the time spent on cleaning. It is recommended to use various storage systems, including cabinets, shelves, drawers and baskets. You should consider in advance the amount of dishes, food purchased for the family and kitchen utensils. In this case, you will know exactly what furniture you need. For example, many people do without wall cabinets, while for some they are necessary.

Wrong choice of color

Colors can have a big impact on the overall perception of the kitchen interior. The wrong color choice will make the space too dark or light, too cold or warm. And blue, according to psychologists, suppresses appetite.

It is recommended to choose light and neutral tones for walls and furniture to create a pleasant atmosphere. Dark colors can be used on accent elements.

When creating a kitchen interior, it is important to consider its functionality, practicality and beauty. Don't forget about lighting, materials, planning, storage and colors. Avoid common mistakes to create a comfortable and convenient space for cooking and socializing with family and friends.
