Dining groups for the kitchen

Dining groups for the kitchen - a definition commonly used in a design environment, which means a set of furniture designed for eating. Depending on the size of the kitchen room and style, not only chairs, but also benches, and stools, and soft corner sofas can be used as elements of the dining groups.

The table can also have a different shape - sometimes it is dictated by the small size of the kitchen and the number of family members. It is important that, regardless of the number of items in the kitchen group and the size of the room, they all look harmonious, creating a favorable atmosphere that encourages food intake and spiritual conversations at the table.

Special features

The kitchen space, regardless of its area, is always divided into two parts: the working area (place for cooking) and the area for lunch.Furniture, respectively, is also divided into two groups, each of which is located separately. Since furniture for small kitchens will always be the most popular among buyers, it would be advisable to consider the specifics of equipment and the staffing of small spaces.

Usually, to the wall opposite to the window, several modular sections are installed in the form of cabinets with shelves intended for economic purposes. Below are the countertop, stove and sink. As for the dining area itself, it should be positioned as far from the stove as possible, both for safety and for maximum comfort.

If the kitchen is large, there is no problem with the placement of the dining group and all other items of its furnishings. When space has no serious limitations, it is possible to purchase ready-made elite kitchen sets at once. Furniture for small spaces is increasingly being made to order.

Composition

The dining furniture set for small kitchens, as a rule, includes a table and several chairs or stools of the same size and color.If the kitchen is more spacious, it can be equipped with a straight sofa or put a corner. In the case of a very small room option, the optimal choice would be a “one-legged” round table complete with several chairs or stools. It is desirable that both the table and the seats are compact and look easy and do not clutter the space.

Modern design solutions will always help to find the best way out of the situation, especially in the light of the formation of new and mixed styles in which the furniture is now being made.

A kitchen group with soft chairs is a very tempting offer, but, unfortunately, it is not suitable for very small rooms. Even if such a set is small, “dangerous” proximity to the stove and other places for cooking can contribute to frequent and rapid pollution, which is sometimes difficult to cope with. Of course, it is always more convenient to sit on soft chairs during lunch, but it is best to consider this option with medium or large kitchen sizes.

In extreme cases, it is possible to separate the area with the stove from the place of eating with the help of a small partition.

Kitchen set with sliding table - a good solution in case of the arrival of guests. It will be appropriate and in a large kitchen, and in a small one, it is only important to correctly determine the size and place of its installation. It is better to order a table with high-quality sliding mechanism, which will not fail at the right time.

If the table is extendable, it is equipped with chairs, some of which can be used as additional ones, or you can order a set with a bench.

Forms

When it comes to the forms of kitchen set, most often it concerns the table as the most important item.

Much depends on whether the table fits in the space where it is planned to install it. Depending on how he “gets up”, and the area for meals will be indicated.

A kitchen group with a round table always gives the room extra comfort. The current trend towards the mixing of forms and styles allows for the possibility of using a round table and square or rectangular chairs.

A small round table and a pair of light chairs will always help the owners of a small-sized kitchen. Moreover, if the table does not have sharp corners, when moving in a small space there will be less risk of getting injured when hitting a sharp corner.Depending on the size of the kitchen and the preferences of the customer, the table can be not only round, but also oval. Both forms are the safest for children.

And of course, the corner elements of kitchen groups are an indispensable option if the kitchen is medium in size. They are made in the form of well-known corner upholstered sofas, the seats of which are most often lifting with the ability to store items in the lower drawer of items needed in the household.

Dimensions

The width of the space between the table and the chair should be 60-80 cm, so that the person sitting at the table does not feel constrained. The parameters of the average dining table are 120 cm in length, and the width and height are approximately the same - from 75 to 80 cm. Four people can freely sit at such a compact table. The diameter of the dining tables round shape according to generally accepted standards should be 90 cm.

The optimal size of the kitchen unit chairs is: a seat 43–45 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 49–56 cm deep. There is a conditional division of chairs according to the level of rigidity, which is determined by whether they have some upholstery or flooring material.The thickness of the upholstery of soft chairs is from 30 to 55 mm (taking into account the springs), if they are semi-soft - 20-40 mm.

Materials

Kitchen sets made of metal are distinguished by elegance and beauty, despite the apparent simplicity. The surface and legs of such products are made of blanks in the form of iron tubes, which serve as a reliable support for the table top. Such tables are characterized by special strength and durability, as well as the stability of forged legs, which does not allow the product to slide on the floor. At the ends of the legs there are often special plugs that make the table not scratch the floor.

The price of metal products is much cheaper than wood, and the design and technology of execution - the most diverse. For example, there are products of the sliding plan, also adjustable in height. There are also options with a glass table on the metal frame, which look modern and original.

Dining groups of solid wood will always be fashionable and relevant, despite the high cost. Wooden products are made of hevea, beech, wenge, oak, always look natural and impressive.

Of course, natural wood requires special care and will not be the best option in the case of a small "budget" kitchen,but if there is an opportunity to put a lunch set in a country house or cottage, the owner will always be provided with a feeling of special comfort due to the natural qualities of this or that material.

Dining furniture sets of glass - a kind of hit of the modern era. The glass used in the manufacture and assembly is subjected to a special processing technology and is called tempered triplex. Therefore, the tabletop and chairs on the strength of a little inferior to the metal, and due to its transparency contribute to the visual increase in space.

Since the vast majority of glass tables and chairs are colorless, the selection of other furnishings is not difficult.

Wicker furniture made of artificial rattan in the dining kitchen groups is represented by cozy chairs. Rattan is a material of high environmental friendliness and durability, however, products from it must be wiped often to avoid accumulation of dust and crumbs.

Rattan chairs are the perfect complement to the tabletop made of metal, glass or wood, and the wicker texture will always remind you of the country atmosphere of relaxation and comfort.

Cheaper and more popular options can be made from a fine fraction of wood (or MDF) with different coatings, as well as from particle board, which to this day is the most inexpensive material.

DSP and MDF are easy to process, products made of them do not differ in age-old strength, but sometimes it happens that such a material is for some reason or other the most preferable.

Colors

At the present stage in the market you can find products of any color. This also applies to kitchen groups, since modern materials that can be successfully combined with natural materials can be subjected to any treatment and painting.

Of course, when choosing the color of kitchen furniture, it is important to consider the overall style of the room, the color of the walls and flooring.

Universal colors are always black and white: if you wish, you can successfully combine a black and white combination in the dining group. For example, the table can be neutral white, and the chairs white and black, standing alternately. This combination will fit well into the kitchen with any wallpaper and floor covering.

Styles

Dinner Zone in classic style characterizes people who have made the final choice in life. Natural wood is traditionally considered to be the best material for the classics. The restraint of lines in combination with natural materials and a minimum of decor perfectly fit into the atmosphere of a large kitchen-living room or a separate dining room.

The colors of the furniture should not be too bright and catch the eye, all the details are distinguished by rigor and symmetry in design.

One of the most modern and popular styles is modern. It reflects the lability of modern life, does not accept strict lines, and leads to asymmetry. At the same time, a modern-style kitchen is always distinguished by its enviable functionality, and it is possible to place such a dining group in a very small area.

Minimalism and hi-tech - styles that are very similar to each other. They are characterized by simplicity of lines and an almost complete lack of details.

There are dinner groups that are made of solid plastic strong bright futuristic colors.

How to choose?

It is recommended to choose a kitchen group when the repair in the room comes to an end: one should proceed from the available colors of the floor, wallpaper and general interior orientation. It is important that the chairs are in harmony with the table and in color and style.

For a small kitchen, a small round table and several chairs made of glass will be a good option: the lightness of the design of these products will create the effect of expanding the space and give the small room a unique charm and charm. Also, for the design of small-sized kitchens, you can use several stools instead of chairs, which can always be pushed under the table so that they do not take up much space.

Given the variety of modern materials, even the most ordinary stool can be a real work of art.

For a small area, the best solution would be to install an angular upholstered sofa with a back along with a standard-sized table or a folding rectangular shape. The angular design always allows you to place inside the necessary items in the household, and the main "trick" of it is that you can put several people on it.

Quality kitchen groups for the living room should be chosen if the living room is already decorated in a simple classical style. Massive furniture from a natural tree will become both a worthy decoration and a unique attraction of a big house.

Accommodation Rules

The issue of zoning does not constitute anything difficult in the case when kitchen furniture is installed in a room with a sufficient area. If you have to deal with a kitchen of small or medium size, the task is complicated by the fact that it is not possible to clearly distinguish the dining area and cooking area. However, in order to optimize the space as much as possible, there are still a few simple general rules.

First of all, the table and chairs as far as possible should not interfere in the process of cooking.It is best to try to put them as far as possible from the stove and from kitchen cabinets with inventory. Round and oval tables take up much more space than tables with sharp corners - this is also important to consider when placing.

It is not necessary to buy chairs with high backs and massive legs in a small kitchen room. Surplus in the form of upholstered furniture in small-sized rooms will not be entirely appropriate: it is known that products made of chipboard, metal and glass that do not have upholstery are more compact and practical to use.

Before buying a kitchen group, you should always make preliminary measurements of the place where you plan to set the table. It is important that the dimensions were taken correctly, and if you plan to purchase ready-made goods in a furniture store, it will not hurt to measure its parameters once again, on the spot, bearing in mind that in order to optimally place the table in the kitchen you will need a “margin” of usable space.

If there is an opportunity, it is better to use the manufacture of a table and chairs for individual orders: then all sizes will be removed clearly and correctly, and a professional designer will help to place all the pieces of furniture in the best possible way.

Beautiful ideas in the interior

Even if we are talking about a small-sized kitchen, you should always remember that, thanks to modern technology, you can buy furniture that fits perfectly into any space. Modern high-tech or loft tables and chairs are very light, have bright colors, move easily in space and create a unique mood.

If there is a plank floor in the kitchen, and the possibility of putting an expensive laminate is not foreseen - it does not matter. It is possible to customize the “worn out” table and chairs under the “Provence” and cover them with dark lacquer or leave it uncovered.

When the kitchen itself is made in bright colors, the ideal solution would be to buy a soft white table, which will also be a decoration of the room and a practical solution to the “color” issue, since under white color you can choose chairs of any shade. The most bold decision is the chairs of bright colors - either orange or red, which looks fashionable, stylish and modern.

You can equip the kitchen on the terrace of a country house by purchasing a set of furniture in the form of a tabletop made of impact-resistant glass and chairs made of artificial rattan.In general, the ensemble will look cozy and beautiful, moreover, such furniture is very resistant to the influence of weather conditions and does not require scrupulous care if it was wetted with rain water or it was exposed to direct sunlight.

If the kitchen is planning to install a hob and washing the color of silver metal, metal chairs with a rectangular table will perfectly fit into such a situation. In this case, the color of the upper and lower cabinets can be anything: metallic gray is neutral in the same way as white.

Shock-resistant glass is remarkable in that, unlike chipboard, MDF and natural wood, products made of it can be placed quite close to the stove, without fear that they may crack due to temperature changes. If cooking comes close to such a kitchen set, it is much easier to clean than other materials.

The same can be said about metal kitchen furniture, although for many consumers it still seems to be something unusual and even inaccessible, perhaps because of its too exotic appearance.

In cases where the area allows you to place a finished dining group, you can already talk about products made of natural wood. If you plan to install furniture in a classic style, and wallpaper, and flooring should be designed in dark and warm colors, so that the color of natural wood contrasts well with the overall situation.

Classic is the best option when the owner of the house can afford to allocate a separate room for meals.

Thus, the concept of "kitchen dining group" is not limited to massive and expensive furniture. Due to the variety of offers on the market, it is realistic to choose the appropriate furniture for each room. This can be done independently, and using the services of professional designers and craftsmen.
