Today's apartments often have studio kitchens. This new type of room is an area in which zones of different functionality are harmoniously combined. Let's say the living room and dining room. By the way, this feature is typical not only for new buildings. More and more often, apartment owners are doing redevelopment, creating studio kitchens. Even in Soviet homes, this can be found. First, it's stylish. Secondly, it is convenient if appropriate furniture is placed. The kitchen-studio has many features. We will talk about one of them, functional and very interesting, today. We are talking about such a newfangled solution as a set with a bar counter.
The interior of the studio apartment, taking into account the bar counter
Surely you know that a studio apartment does not have internal partitions. In other words, it has an open floor plan. In this case, the kitchen and living rooms, such as a bedroom, a living room, an office, are considered to be a single whole and exist in a single space. Most often, the cooking area is adjacent to the living room, which in turn, in addition to performing the main functions, also serves as a dining room. It is worth noting that next does not mean together.
From the side of aesthetics and elementary comfort, they must still be distinguished. This can be done in a variety of ways. For example, using finishing materials. Let's say the kitchen wallpaper is one color, and in the living room - another. You can make an artificial difference in the level of the ceiling and floor. Many designers use everything in a compartment. The end result is a great result. Note that the first two methods are applicable only during redevelopment. But the latter can be used after it.
Studio kitchen layout options with a breakfast bar
In order for the bar counter to be really useful, and not just for beauty, you must first think about how to arrange it. There are several varieties of this layout:
- peninsula;
- island;
- linear.
The first option in the shape of the letter "L" is the most popular among consumers due to its undeniable convenience. So, it is located at a right angle to the main headset, thereby crossing the existing room space. Thanks to this technique, you can clearly delimit the kitchen area from another. If you want to use the space that is not used (for example, by the window), then you can install a high-level countertop.It will look great if it is combined with the window sill as a whole. The main thing here is to choose a rack of absolutely the same height that the window sill has.
Partition with transom or window
The bedroom, bordering the kitchen-studio, can be separated without drowning out the access of sunlight. This result can be achieved thanks to a partition having a transom or window. Thus, the bedroom will be secluded and the light will continue to flow into it along with fresh air. To further isolate the room, you can hang curtains on this opening, as in the presented design project.
