Farmer style
Farmer style, наполненный теплом и уютом, напоминает о простоте деревенской жизни и в то же время привносит в интерьер максимум функциональности и удобства. Открытые полки, емкие мойки, классическое напольное покрытие и большой кухонный стол – в такой кухне всегда приятно находиться, ее невозможно не полюбить.
Rustic style
"Worn", "aged", "rough" - this may not be the first words that come to your mind when thinking about the kitchen. However, today the rustic-style kitchens successfully compete with the kitchens in the classic white decoration, thanks to the magnificent finish of wood, stone, brick, vintage decor elements and fireplaces.
Art Nouveau style
As a rule, the term "modern" has a fairly wide interpretation, but speaking of the kitchen in modern style, mean frameless kitchen cabinets, neat and simple furniture accessories, strict horizontal lines and lack of decorations - the main role is played by the natural beauty of the materials used.
Traditional style
Traditional cuisine is easy to learn by details - arches, decorative stucco and consoles, paneled doors, a variety of vintage trim and figured legs - and even pendant chandeliers-candelabra. And it does not matter whether such a kitchen is framed in the best traditions of the American classics or the respectable old world - it will always carry a unique imprint of the owner's personality.
Modern style
Modern kitchens can be very tidy and minimalistic, but unlike modern style kitchens, the main feature of which is structural and systematic, modern kitchens show more playful elements in decoration and forms, and use elements of other styles to create their own vision of the present.
Transitional style
Transitional style – великий посредник. Тепло и гостеприимность традиционного стиля, чистые, простые лини современного стиля – переходный стиль создает возможность баланса между элементами разных стилей, гармонично их объединяя. Благодаря своей гибкости, переходный стиль является излюбленным стилем оформления для тех, кто предпочитает как традиционные, так и современные мотивы в интерьере.
Craft style
This style appeared at the beginning of the 20th century as a response to the growth of the mass production and fussiness of the Victorian era. The inherent rich wood finish, built-in elements, hand-crafted decorative ceramic tiles and good-quality simplicity continue to fascinate us.
Cottage style
Cozy, joyful and unpretentious, cottage style in the kitchen reminds of times when life was much easier, and creates an atmosphere of easy, carefree life. Corrugated wooden panels, soft colors, vintage fittings, wooden floors and colorful accents and curtains will fill your kitchen with the comfort of a country house.
The style of the Parisian bistro
If you dream of a cup of sweet café au lait in Montmartre, why not add a little Parisian atmosphere to the interior of your own house? Muted lighting, beautiful kitchen utensils in sight, tiled floors and striped marquises will help you create the right impression.
Classic style
What is a classic? The answer is as ambiguous as the style of cooking. And yet, the distinctive features of the classical style are white or cream-beige kitchen cabinets, simple architectural details and black accents. It is easy to give this style of individuality by adding elements in a modern, traditional or eclectic style according to one's own taste.
Mediterranean style
Cone-shaped hood, hand-painted tiles, kitchen furniture from warm wood, wooden beams at the ceiling and arched niches are just some of the features that make cuisines in the style of the Spanish revival so popular.
Eclecticism
You are annoyed by the need to adhere to a single style, and you hate the framework? Your home is your territory: you can mix and match styles the way you like. The main thing is that your protest against conformism in the style of design was justified: make your kitchen truly individual, so that elements in the modern style, rustic motifs and strokes inherent in other styles harmoniously combined and complement each other, showing your sense of humor and disdain for boring rules .
