In modern apartments, a variety of kitchens are found: they can be square, rectangular, irregular in shape, with a bay window, and even long narrow, like a corridor.
Each layout has its pros and cons, you cannot speak unambiguously, and even from unsuccessful at first glance, the form of the room can be made candy if you wish.
Therefore, if you have a long narrow kitchen, do not panic and think that such a layout is no longer saved. Yes, this form makes its own certain adjustments, but everything is solved.
What layout of the kitchen should be preferred, is it about a long narrow room?
In fact, in this case, you can choose one of two layout options: in one line or ...G...-Figure.
Let's dwell on each of these options and see how you can save an unsuccessful shape of the room.
Kitchen sets look good, whose hinged boxes go under the ceiling - this adds visually to the height of the room, makes it more spacious and filled with air.
When designing the kitchen in one line, it is better to prefer light tones for decoration and facades. The table can be placed by the opposite wall, it can be long, but not wide, we do not take into account the square tables.
This is the most common type of kitchen layout of this form. In this case, the kitchen set is often executed to order, building all the necessary cabinets, a stove, a sink and a refrigerator in one line.
If the length of the room allows, then everything can be organized quite convenient and functional. In order not to clutter up an overly narrow kitchen, the refrigerator can be removed in the hallway, because its depth will be larger than the depth of the boxes and stoves.
The option of corner layout is often chosen if you need to equip a small narrow kitchen. So the countertop passes to the side of the window, here you can make additional boxes, or even a convenient food area.
This is a quite appropriate layout, there is nothing unusual here. Besides, ...G...-The figurative kitchen gives the room a more correct shape, makes it harmonious.
In some cases, smooth forms are chosen to visually smooth the corners, then the facades and the countertop will have bends pleasant to the eye.
For visual expansion of space, you should not use the mirrors, they are inappropriate in the kitchen, and cooking your back for the mirror is not the most pleasant activity. It is better to use light facades, countertop, wall decoration and textiles on the windows.
Before proceeding with the design of the premises of a narrow kitchen, you need to clearly decide what needs to be placed in it.
Indeed, in addition to the kitchen, the headset here, most likely, will have enough equipment that needs to find a place: refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave oven, multicooker, electric kettle.
This list is far from complete, and many housewives have much more devices and assistants in their arsenal. And you need to find a place for each unit of equipment at the design stage, because often the furniture is made taking into account the measurements of each overall item.
Remember that the microwave, for example, should not be placed too high or low. In the first case, you will be too lazy to stretch up each time to put a cup of tea for warming up, and in the second, you will also get low for this, too, you will also get tired.
It's good if it is located at eye level or slightly lower. This applies to all other items of technology: it is good if you purchase them in advance or you will know the exact measurements of the one you have chosen for purchase.
Today you can choose a variety of facades of furniture for the kitchen, starting from budget chipboard models, and more expensive MDF, and ending with expensive natural wood options or with enameling.

The highest quality and durable counters are considered a stone of stone, an array of wood, steel and tiles. Acrylic and MDF countertops are also entitled to choose, but they are less long for use and not very wear -resistant.
To begin with, it is quite possible to do without a sofa in the kitchen. Indeed, this is not the subject of first necessity in this room. But sometimes I want to add more comfort and home environment to the kitchen room, then the sofa It will be very useful.
If the space of a narrow kitchen allows, you can choose a corner sofa and put it by the window - this will help organize several seats and compactly enter the dining table next to it. Before, what you need to pay attention to when choosing a sofa to the kitchen is to upholstery material.
It should be detergent, and its coloring depends on your courage. A narrow sofa in the kitchen can also be entered into the room by placing it at the wall or window, focusing on measurements for comfortable use.
