Table by the window in the kitchen: features and design options

A table in the kitchen is one of the most important elements that should be present in this room. Without it, it loses its meaning. But what if the kitchen is very small in size, and the owners so want it to be warm, cozy and multifunctional? You shouldn't be upset. Many options have long been invented that will help to easily solve this problem, one of which is to install a table near the window.

First of all, you need to decide for what purpose you are installing your table. He might be:

• chopping;

• dining;

• combined variants of the two previous varieties.

Then you need to select the type of material from which the table will be made. You should also consider the layout of your apartment and its design. There are Khrushchevs, and there are Stalin-era buildings - you can't really roam in them.

A window seat is a good place to do this. Designers have long learned to use this space for business. If you try and think everything over carefully, you can arrange everything so that you get a kitchen-living room.

The dining area or the work area located in the immediate vicinity of the window is always convenient. The table, albeit small, at the window opening in the kitchen will allow you to see everything that happens on the street, and you will always be on the bright side of the room. So let's take a look at some options.

You can install it in the middle, but then you completely close the passage along the cabinets. What to do? Use a windowsill! It will be easy to do if the depth of the window block reaches 40 cm. In this opening you will securely fix the table, which will protrude slightly from the window space. Four people can easily fit behind him.

• What a beautiful view of the kitchen will turn out if you arrange a dining area, where there will be a bench set along the window opening. This option significantly saves space. Inside the seat, you can arrange a place to store cans and other utensils.

• It also happens that the only space for the cutting kitchen table is the window opening. Here and set a comfortable countertop. This solution will decorate even the smallest room. And if you go further, you can combine the work area and the dining area.

• Another great option is the bar counter along the window. It is suitable for those who lead a very active lifestyle.

• A good decor option is curtains or curtains. If you have arranged a dining area near the window or directly in the window opening, then these elements should be short (so they get less dirty). Roman shades will also look appropriate here. Country style, on the other hand, will require a lot of fabric. And in the case of minimalism, choose Japanese curtains that open quickly.

• Upholstery and tablecloth must match in color with curtains or curtains (the same goes for pillows).
