White kitchen in classic interior design

The classic style of the interior is often embodied with the help of light colors, especially white. It is relevant for many rooms of the apartments, in particular for the kitchen. Perfectly complementing the classic concept, light headsets are able to transform an ordinary cooking room, but not everyone knows what the features of such furniture are, what are its varieties and how to properly combine it with the rest of the classic interior. All these and other nuances will be discussed in detail in this article.

As with any interiors, a number of special characteristics are inherent in the classic white kitchen, among which there are both positive and negative ones. The advantages of a white kitchen in the interior include the following nuances.

• The brevity and restraint of such a kitchen allows it to look soundly, but not too expressive. Such furniture does not get bored over time.
• White blends perfectly with all shades of classic style, so the headset will look organic.
• References to elements of ancient Greek architecture combined with white will look more expressive. Equipped with details such as stucco, columns and antique patterns, the white set will look very unusual and not pretentious.
• The richness of classic design options allows you to make the white kitchen even more original, decorating it, for example, in the style of the modern classic, which also has similarities with the traditional concept.
• Natural raw materials in the headset not only give it an aesthetic appearance, but also affect the service life, which is very durable.

However, such furniture in a classic kitchen interior is not devoid of certain drawbacks.

• High cost headset... This factor is explained by the fact that the classic implies the use of natural materials in the interior. Also, furniture should look expensive and soundly, which definitely requires financial investments.
• Household appliances often need to be masked, because the look of modern kitchen appliances, as a rule, does not fit into the classic interior. To do this, it is necessary to carry out additional installation work, as well as select special models of equipment, for example, hoods that outwardly most suit the style.
• Most classic design is suitable for medium to large kitchen areas... A white headset can look too bulky in small rooms.
• The undoubted disadvantage is that various types of contamination are more noticeable on white.me, and it requires more frequent cleaning.

According to the features of the layout, white kitchens for a classic interior are divided into a number of varieties. Among them are the following.

• Straight line type headsets means placing all cabinets along one of the walls of the kitchen. This option is very suitable for small spaces as it leaves most of the space unoccupied. However, to accommodate all the utensils in this kitchen, you usually cannot do without wall cabinets, which are also located in a row above the floor ones. Where floor storage units usually have monolithic doors, hanging cabinets are often fitted with glass inserts.

• Corner white headsets suitable for larger kitchens. A feature of such furniture is that it is located along two adjacent walls. A corner compartment is often used to house a sink. However, in the case of the classics, such a headset must be planned very carefully, since it requires respect for the symmetry inherent in this style.

• The owners of a large kitchen can arrange a white set in two lines opposite each other. This layout assumes that the width of the space between the two rows will be at least 120 cm. Symmetry in such a case is easier to maintain, so this arrangement is quite suitable as an option for the classic style.

• Kitchen with an island allows you to delimit the workspace, which is a very convenient technique for combined kitchen and dining room in the same room. Also, a convenient access to the island part of the kitchen makes it easier to maintain order in such a room.

A headset in a classic interior is not always completely white. It can combine several colors on its surface. And also monochromatic options are in harmony with other shades in furniture and decoration. The main color combinations of the white classic kitchen are as follows.

• In furniture, white color goes well with gold trim elements. This option is especially beautiful if the headset is made antique and equipped with an element such as patina. Also, the golden hue appears in the relief of interior items such as a chandelier, drawer handles, accessories and even upholstery.

• White set forms a very organic combination with pastel. This combination is in perfect harmony with the classic style, in which pastel colors often act as a background, covering the ceiling, walls, and some furniture.

• Natural colors, such as gray, green and brown, are in perfect harmony with the white range.... At the same time, they can be located both in the headset itself, for example, in the design of the table top, and in other elements of the interior.

• Tones such as terracotta or yellow help to revive the light colors of a white kitchen in a classic concept.... Since they are quite saturated, they are used to create an accent area, for example, an apron.

• Red tone does not fit into the classic design in large quantities, like burgundy. It can be used with emphasis without breaking the restraint of style.

In order for a white kitchen to look as elegant as possible in a classic interior design, it is necessary to think over the design of all elements of the room. It is especially worth paying attention to the following nuances of the design of surfaces and other furniture.

• The walls should not stand out very much against the background of the white kitchen unit.... The classic allows for the creation of an accent only in the apron area. For the rest, use pastel or neutral colors. As for the picture, either it should not be on the walls at all, or its presence in the form of a discreet floral ornament on the wallpaper is permissible.

• In such a kitchen, the ceiling is not particularly complex in design. It should be painted white. Sometimes stucco is an element of the classic ceiling decor. If you are creating a stretch ceiling structure, then you should choose a matte texture. If there are multiple levels, note that the transition between levels may overlap in shape with the elements of the typeface.

• The apron should not blend in tone with the white headset... It is designed in either brighter or darker colors. At the same time, natural stone, tile mosaic and elements of painting can be used for its decoration.

• Hoods in classic kitchens are usually tucked away in a special box, stylized as a set.... However, you can also order ready-made models, the body of which is made in accordance with the style and does not allow this kitchen attribute to attract undue attention.

• Often, headsets in classic interiors practically reach the ceiling. The distance between them, as well as the upper facades of the white headset, are decorated with the help of special cornices.

• Chandeliers in such a kitchen are suspended structures. They are made either entirely of crystal and have graceful shapes, or they contain metal and are painted in darker colors, contrasting with the light set.

• If you are decorating a kitchen with a white set in full accordance with the traditional classic concept, then it is worth choosing only matte textures... However, for more modern versions of the classics, a white set can be made with gloss elements.

• It is also worth considering the color of the countertop, complementing the kitchen with accessories. Sometimes it does not differ in shade from the whole headset. There are also products whose countertops are darker by only a couple of tones. But there are also contrasting options with a working platform made of dark stone or even with a rich color. In this case, the color of the countertop should overlap with at least one of the accessories for complete harmony.

• The work area can be illuminated with LED lighting. It will also help you create the desired accent color if equipped with multiple light modes. Using the remote control, you can select the desired spectra and change the atmosphere in the kitchen.

• On the kitchen window in a classic interior, various curtains may be present. Cropped models with pleats like Roman curtains are appropriate, long simple models made of two types of fabric are also suitable. Textiles should combine light and dark fabrics, and dark can become a color accent.

• If the headset is light, the dining table does not have to be made in the same colors. Wooden tables of round and square shape, not only light, but also noble brown shades will look appropriate.

If you still do not know how to fit a white kitchen set into a classic kitchen interior and combine it with the rest of the details, pay attention to the following ready-made examples of such a design for kitchen facilities.

• The originality of the classic interior will be given by a light set with illumination inside the glazed wall cabinets.

• The hood and space above the stove can be designed in the form of an arch. It can be equipped with stucco and other relief elements.

• Even such a simple accessory as bright flowers in a vase can perfectly diversify the design of a classic kitchen with a light set.

• The set, located in one row, looks great in a kitchen with a warm wall color. The atmosphere is very cozy due to the fact that the white kitchen furniture is complemented by a contrasting tabletop that matches the color of the dining table, as well as curtains that contain both colors in a striped print.

• The floors, styled in natural marble and combining the contrast of black and white ensemble, give your white kitchen a truly luxurious look.

• In order not to mask household appliances on purpose, you can simply look for models made in white, for example, as in the interior of this kitchen.
