When we talk about a “grandmother’s” apartment, we mean a living space that belonged to our ancestor and is decorated in an outdated style.
However, even grandparents, whose apartments have not been renovated for a long time, deserve to be stylish, says designer Yulia Tychino , an expert from the online publication BelNovosti.
Today we will tell you how to update such a kitchen without spending an astronomical amount of money to achieve this goal.
So, first, let's talk about household appliances - the best solution would be to place them at chest level: this way, older people will be able to comfortably use such benefits of civilization as a microwave and the like.
The next thing that must be done is to think about additional lighting for the area where food is prepared.
If your hood has given up the ghost, be sure to replace it with a new, more powerful one: older people often spend time at the stove.
The area that definitely needs some work is the dining area.
If the table is still in good condition, sometimes it is enough to go over it with a sanding machine to remove scratches and other defects, then cover the tabletop with varnish.
You can (and should) polish and paint kitchen cabinets, while replacing the fittings with new ones.
