Kitchen in modern style — a modern classic to your home

The history of the style and its features

The art Nouveau style appeared in the late 19th century and reached its peak in the early 20th century. It owes its origin to the historical events of the era, when there was a sharp leap in technology and the transition to mass production.

This style became incredibly popular, its application has become widespread, and many areas from art to advertising was full of this pretentious style. But interest faded with the same speed, with what appeared.

Could not become a modern international style with the common interpretation, and there are several names depending on the country: in France it is called "art Nouveau", in Germany and Scandinavia — "art Nouveau", in Italy — "liberty", and "Tiffany".





As a style of architecture, art and interior, art Nouveau began to fade during the First world war. The reason for that was technically difficult and expensive production of the necessary interior items. The diversity of interpretations engendered some confusion in determining the characteristic features of the style.

Currently, Modern is far from its original incarnation, but retained some distinctive features of the original including it can be observed in the interior of the kitchen Modern.

So, let's define what different kitchen interior in modern style:

  • geometric shapes next to smooth curves;

  • smooth and shiny surface;

  • bold color combinations;

  • functionality is paramount;

  • the abundance of modern household appliances and different gadgets;

  • the minimum number of textiles;

  • avoiding excessive decoration and superfluous accessories.

 

Modern ideal for smaller kitchens due to the abundance of glossy surfaces the effect of expanding space. Minimalistic textures and bold geometric forms, decorated in neutral colours together with polished finish and asymmetry are the key identifying features of Modern style.









Forms and materials

So, the first symptom of Nouveau cuisine that comes to mind is a smooth, curved shape and asymmetrical lines. Ordinary corner kitchen can attain a smooth shape, if the angle to make a rounded, and call it a day he can both "inside" and "outside" — corner boxes can suddenly become round. Such contours are ideal for small rooms and how will look rounded corners, you can see in the photo.







If we talk about the texture, the surface should be smooth and shiny – for this effect in the design of the facade, for example, used enamel, acrylic, tape or varnish.





In Modernity it is possible to use many materials, especially the common wood and plastic. Some designers use natural wood as an organic contrast against the artificial forms and materials.





Glossy metal, such as stainless steel, is one of the distinctive materials in the Modern. Metal can be used for anything ranging from chandeliers and ending legs of the chair.









Modern interior designers are also using glass and plastic when you want to create smooth and flat surfaces.





The floor can be covered with linoleum, laminate, ceramic tiles, will look spectacular and screed. The high cost of the materials is not the main purpose (although initially, in this style and was different), because the emphasis is on functionality.





Colors

The main colors of the kitchen are Modern, soft shades. Often it is dominated by grayish-smoky, ashy, blue-gray, light-brown color. However, bored in this kitchen is not necessary, because such a calm colour and patches of bright colours – red, green, and blue (preferably in natural shades inspired by nature).

These cheerful colors are usually used on the Wallpaper or curtains, but Modern style, aimed at a new reading of old classics, not dictates clear instructions, so the combination of calm and vibrant tones it is possible in the kitchen, — to assess the real implementation of this idea in the photo below.

Of course, most effectively looks white kitchen, but to avoid being too "sterile" interior, better still, mix white with other colors. Often, the design of the kitchen Modern, the facades of the headset are performed in several colors.

Colors with specially selected contrasting colors or shades according to accepted interior design color schemes, and sometimes even allows for two different bright colors, and the tabletop is made in the third color. The selection of colors in this case it is better to attract professionals, or to use proven color schemes.

Lighting is an important part of the interior









Initially, the lighting in the Modern interior is trying to do muted to create an atmosphere of comfort and romance. Today, preferences have changed. Chandeliers on the ceiling are not the only source of lighting because the kitchen design in the art Nouveau style is characterized, in particular, and good lighting. Therefore, the spotlights will be a great choice, and then the soft light will fill exactly the entire your kitchen. Chandeliers and other lighting sources will not tolerate pretentiousness and ornate, so the lighting needs to be rigorous, geometrically correct. Below are photos of suitable this style of lighting.

 













Choosing furniture

A characteristic feature of the cuisine of Modern – unloaded of the interior and its functionality. There is no fundamental, which is adopted in the Classics, and, at the same time, there is no negligence, is inherent in Country style and Shabby chic. Tables and chairs — a strict and simple forms, without any "screaming" parts. Plastic chairs here look surprisingly harmonious. In the photo below you can see the wildest furniture ideas in Modern style.







Furniture can be white or, on the contrary bright is unprincipled. Kitchen sets are mostly made out of plastic and MDF, as mentioned above, they have a glossy surface. As for the handles of the facades, they are often absent and in order to open the boxes, you just need to click on the door.

But the hidden handles are not the most practical item especially on glossy headsets, because the fronts always remain traces of fingers, which you need to wipe. Other interesting ideas handles, including door, you can look at the selected photos.





Regarding kitchen apron is often made of plastic or glass and in the same color as the countertop.

The apron is also can be one of the main accents, contrasting with cabinetry and counter tops. Look at these pictures, the white top and frilly trim apron look very impressive.









Also in facades is permissible to insert frosted or clear glass. However, they always remain straight shape, without any drawings and stencils. If you try to keep up with the progress, keep in mind that this kitchen might be filled with all sorts of technical gadgets and useful gadgets, that her appearance of only wins.

The decor is discreet and stylish

Modern does not tolerate unnecessary decor and accessories. Decor apply, but he just gently complements the cuisine; it is desirable to reflect its "present" and asceticism. On the selected photo you can find something similar. For kitchen Modern is decor: modern watch, a beautiful vases of simple shapes or ware geometric shapes and bright colors.

But, of course, and white tableware will look, because of Modern on the side of simplicity of shapes and colors. This will be nice if the frosted glass in the kitchen will be decorated with vases of frosted glass. As bright spots also use a bowl of fruits and vegetables.

Textiles are not often present in Modern dance, but without some necessary things not to do: towels, apron, pot holders, etc., of course, can be made of textiles. Instead of tablecloths, it is better to pay attention to the wildcard swipe.

Some believe that the Modern style is too simple, harsh and cold, however, when it is well planned and thought out, it can bring a sense of peace and harmony in your kitchen.published
