Kitchen

Not everyone has the time, inclination or flair for creating interior designs themselves. If you want to quickly furnish a stylistically coherent kitchen, a kitchen furniture set is the best solution.

Kitchen sets versus customised furniture

Kitchen furniture sets are a less expensive solution than buying bespoke kitchen furniture. Thanks to its modular architecture, ready-made kitchen furniture can be easily adapted to the shape of your kitchen.

This rule does not only apply to kitchens with unusual shapes. They can be found in some old townhouses with thick walls of irregular courses, with folds and recesses. In this case, buying made-to-measure furniture may be the only solution to make efficient use of the kitchen space.

Another advantage of ready-made kitchen furniture is the aforementioned consistency (if you decide to buy a kitchen set). Each piece in such a set is based on the same colour scheme and is in the same style as the other furniture in the set.

Colour scheme and style of kitchen furniture sets

Kitchen furniture sets, regardless of style, have a similar design, which is obviously dictated by ergonomics. The main differences for kitchen built-ins are in the style of the fronts and the colour scheme. Let's take a look at a few examples.

White kitchen furniture

White is a colour that brings more light and breath into the interior. We particularly recommend it for darker kitchens. You will find white kitchen furniture for example in the Provence set. As the name suggests, it refers to the Provencal style, the main features of which are the use of fronts with divisions imitating wooden boards and the use of glazing with muntins. Such solutions introduce a cosy, homely atmosphere into the kitchen.

Modern kitchen furniture sets

The Aspen kitchen set, on the other hand, is an example of modern design in the kitchen. The individual pieces of furniture have simple, white glossy fronts, the other characteristic feature is the maximum simplification of form and practically no ornaments. Such a set of furniture will work well in larger, open kitchens connected to the living room.

Brown kitchen furniture

A different approach was taken by the designers of the Sicily kitchen furniture set. In their case, inspiration from the classical style of the 19th century is clearly visible. More ornate muntins, delicately decorated fronts combined with the brown colour will add warmth to any kitchen interior.

Modular kitchen furniture in practice

Most kitchen furniture sets include wall and standing cabinets with solid or glazed fronts, tall pillar-type cabinets with space for an oven and microwave, as well as furniture equipped with shelves and drawers. In addition, the sets include side panels, single fronts and plinths, which can be trimmed independently - they are colour-matched to the fronts of the dedicated kitchen furniture collection.

Some sets also offer worktops in different shades, which, in the case of kitchen annexes, can provide an additional aesthetic accent. Lighter wood worktops will suit white kitchen furniture, while darker shades of wood will suit brown furniture.

Is it worth opting for a set of kitchen cabinets

The standard modules used in kitchen cabinet sets are 60, 45, 30 and 20 cm. This allows you to create a set of kitchen cabinets of any size. An interesting solution that can liven up your kitchen is to combine kitchen cabinets from two different sets. For example - the under-counter cabinets can be kept in a minimalist style, while the kitchen wall cabinets can come from a more ornate set.

Corner kitchen furniture - how to use the space

Making effective use of corners in the kitchen is one of the biggest concerns when designing a kitchen. Usually, kitchen sets also include corner furniture, especially base and upper cabinets. These are characterised by a clever architecture, so that you make use of every square inch of space and, at the same time, have or have easy access to kitchen accessories located in the corner of the kitchen. Corner kitchen furniture is also indispensable for L-shaped kitchen units.
