First, how to decorate the kitchen
(A), the overall decoration of the kitchen points
Key points of kitchen decoration 1. Height of operating platform
When working in the kitchen, the height of the operating platform plays a decisive role in preventing fatigue and turning flexibly. When you bend forward 20 degrees Celsius for a long time, it will bring a great load to your waist. In the long run, back pain will accompany you. So the height of the platform must be determined according to your height.
Key points of kitchen decoration II. Lighting arrangement
Kitchen decoration kitchen lighting needs to be divided into two levels: one is the lighting of the whole kitchen, and the other is the lighting of washing, preparation and operation. The latter generally arranges local lights at the lower part of the hanging cabinet, with convenient switching devices. Now, range hoods with good performance generally have lights, which are enough for cooking.
Key points of kitchen decoration 3. Electrical equipment embedded in kitchen cabinets
Now the kitchen area is relatively moderate, and it is much more convenient to bring electrical appliances into the kitchen. According to everyone's different needs, refrigerators, ovens, microwave ovens, dishwashers, etc. Can be installed in the appropriate position of the cabinet, convenient to open and use.
(2) The color of the kitchen
1. The color of the kitchen can be determined according to personal hobbies, but it must conform to the feng shui design of the kitchen. In geomantic omen, the kitchen is slightly inclined to "Yin Qi". Because the kitchen is dominated by "fire", the decoration should choose the dark side.
2. The color of the kitchen is mainly light, such as white. White symbolizes peace and helps people to calm down. If the dining room is connected with the kitchen, the white kitchen can make people have an appetite. In addition, I chose silver gray, with brown gray as the main tone, which is more suitable for most people's hobbies; The kitchen in earthy tones is more elegant.
3. But you can't blindly pursue shade. The kitchen is a place where a lot of water is used, and the water is turbid, so bright colors can be added appropriately.
(3), the kitchen design elements
1, area For some small-sized houses, the kitchen is too big to take up space and too small to make people feel uncomfortable. So what should be appropriate? The Code for Residential Design stipulates that the small area of the kitchen should be 5 square meters. If it is less than 5 square meters, the kitchen will accumulate too much heat, and the housewife who cooks will suffer. The suitable area is generally 6 to 8 square meters. Of course, if your house is very big, even if you want a 20-square-meter kitchen, there is no problem.
2, width Even if the area is enough, to make the kitchen easy to use, we must also pay attention to the width problem. Generally speaking, when people are active, they need a distance of at least 0.9 meters before and after, and the width of the cabinet is 0.6 meters. In this way, if it is a single-row cabinet, the clear width of the kitchen should be greater than 1.5 m, and the double-row cabinet should be greater than 2. 1 m.
3. The layout of the operating line kitchen can generally be divided into zigzag, L-shaped, T-shaped, U-shaped, island-shaped and other forms. But no matter what kind of layout, we should follow the principle of kitchen operation line as far as possible, that is, the operation line of receiving, washing, cutting, preparing meals and cooking should be smooth and not crowded. Generally speaking, there are frequent trips between the sink and the stove, and the distance can be adjusted to 122- 183 cm. If we can ensure that these five steps are smooth and do not cross, we can maximize the use of kitchen space, and it doesn't matter if the area is small.
4. Triangular workspace, which is also the basic concept of kitchen design-"triangular workspace", that is to say, the washbasin, refrigerator and stove should be placed in the right position, ideally triangular. The perimeter of the triangle they enclose should be 457-67 1 cm.
5, electrical equipment wiring layout There are water and heat sources in the kitchen, and it is dangerous to pull temporary wires under the cabinet. Therefore, when designing, we must pay attention to reserve the power supply line of electrical appliances in the kitchen.
Generally speaking, the electricity demand of the following equipment should be considered (some equipment should be purchased unconditionally for the time being, and the necessary power supply should be reserved). In principle, the kitchen power supply should have three circuits:
1. Lighting source (including lighting source of main ceiling of kitchen and other auxiliary light sources, etc.). )
2. Electrical power supply (including range hoods, rice cookers, microwave ovens, disinfection cabinets, mixers, etc.). ) 3. Special power supply for refrigerator. At present, power supply for water purification facilities and garbage disposal under the sink table surface have been added. Because of the high cost of pneumatic switch, the power supply of garbage disposal must lead the switch wire to the wall above the sink.
Second, what problems should be paid attention to in kitchen decoration?
1. Make the kitchen look bigger than it really is: use glass, which has a strong display effect and won't make people feel depressed. In the design process of small apartment, the material is glass, which is the application of glass frame in hanging cabinets and has a modern feeling. Choose metal materials with strong visual impact and colors with strong affinity. Careful people will find that designers rarely design cabinets with darker colors. The color of the whole kitchen should be single tone and light color. Dark colors such as black and dark brown are not suitable for cabinets. White, light gray or bright milky yellow and light blue are all good choices.
2. Choose a single light-colored wall brick for the wall: the kitchen has a limited use area, and the overall color arrangement should not be colorful. Be careful not to use decorative materials with three-dimensional patterns or strong contrast between light and dark, otherwise it will not only make the kitchen area look narrow visually, but also be difficult to clean.
3, make full use of the corner: Because the kitchen space is small, if the width is narrow, it is not appropriate to choose those cabinets with corners, which may make the space appear smaller, but if the width is wide, it is necessary to make full use of the corner space and make full use of the corner space. For example, more pots and pans can be placed by using a rotating basket.
The kitchen decoration is very important for the whole home decoration, not only for the new house decoration, but also for the old house decoration. The kitchen is where we eat every day, and a good decoration style can increase our appetite.
