The idea of ​​repairing in the kitchen had been brewing for a long time, but as soon as I saw Mediterranean-style tiles in the store, it became clear that there should be a repair. I was ready to save on everything and endure any hardships, if only to realize my new dream - to create Mediterranean cuisine. Six months later, the idea began to be realized, and that's what came of it. We managed to realize the most daring ideas.

The main idea was to give the kitchen a warm and unusual Mediterranean-style patio atmosphere. It was not difficult to create the mood, they bought a chandelier in the form of a street lamp in the courtyard, and a laminate with the effect of an old board was laid on the floor. Curtains were abandoned in favor of bamboo blinds, which not only support the style, but also visually expand the space.

The apron was decorated with tiles with a hint of the Portuguese Azulejos. Under the street flowers, special grilles were installed outside, so most of the year we have an amazing view of flowering plants outside the window. The window sill is also used wisely, here I planted various spicy herbs that solve not only the aesthetic problem, but also are added to various dishes.

And what is the aroma in the kitchen, I think it is very important to maintain harmony in this room. And flowering plants like nothing better help to recreate a sense of unity with nature. This is so lacking in large cities. It is a pity that few people currently support this tradition.

Our kitchen is not just small, it is tiny. The area is only 5.8 square meters, so the main task was to preserve and visually increase the space. This is quite difficult to achieve, since we had practically no choice of layouts. But the question was not how to make a convenient working area, everything is already within walking distance. I believe that we have successfully completed the task!

In order for the small room to become not only cozy, convenient, but also functional, we used all the means available in the arsenal. First of all, we played with color, the main background was chosen classic light colors.

White walls, elegant chairs and a small round table in the corner make up the dining group, a snow-white refrigerator and a gas stove with three burners and a bright shiny surface - all this made it possible to preserve the usable area and create a feeling of light, airy space.

The main color scheme was not randomly chosen by us; against its background, drawings in the Mediterranean style look very organically. The situation turned out to be interesting, but not overloaded with details.

The oven had to be taken standard, we decided not to take risks and not to take equipment from unknown manufacturers. But this cabinet perfectly fell into place, creating a single working line. We installed it not quite standard, because the oven is usually installed under the hob. We did it a little differently, but it’s convenient to use.

Our bright and comfortable kitchen is very loved by family and friends. A little more than 300.0 thousand rubles were spent on repairs. A kitchen set from the furniture factory ZOV cost us 110.0 thousand rubles, together with delivery and assembly on site. We spent 18.0 thousand on the organization of the dining area.

About 160.0 thousand were spent on the repair itself, paying for the services of craftsmen who leveled the walls, laid tiles, and decorated the floors. The tile that I liked was not so expensive, just 7.5 thousand rubles. Our kitchenette turned out to be warm, cozy, dear, it is nice here to sit in the evening with family and share how the day went.
