After renovation and installation of new furniture and kitchen units, the interior seems elegant, and it becomes pleasant to spend time even in the kitchen.
But unexpected inconveniences begin to spoil the mood.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told us what mistakes in the kitchen should be avoided at the planning stage.
Glossy and matte facades
Both options are not very practical in everyday life.
Grease stains and splashes are visible on such surfaces, but cleaning them up is not so easy.
No handles
The refusal of furniture handles is presented as a fashionable solution. Allegedly, they do not get dirty and do not spoil the interior with their untidy appearance.
Instead, they propose installing more expensive mechanisms for opening drawers by pressing.
They are really only useful if you install them on the bottom drawers, where you can push the door with your foot.
And if you open them with dirty hands, then after preparing dinner you will have to wash the entire kitchen.
No upper cabinets
Instead, they suggest using open shelves, which is not very convenient.
For optimal storage of utensils and food, pencil cases, boxes and other containers are simply necessary.
Sink by the window
This is only suitable if there is a dishwasher and the mixer tap is located at least 25-30 cm away from the glass.
Otherwise, every time after washing the dishes you will have to wash the window too.
Of course, these are not all the mistakes, but only the most popular and fashionable ones, which at first glance seem interesting, but in fact do not stand up to criticism.
