Country – a rustic style in the interior – has many variations depending on the country that they want to simulate. France is embodied in the style of Provence, the name of which was given by one of its historical areas.
The interior of the kitchen in the Provence style is more suitable for suburban mansions and villas, because it involves unity with rural life. A wide open window that goes out into its own yard, from which a beautiful view of flowering flower beds is opened with sunlight … This is possible anywhere, but not in a city apartment. But this does not mean that in modern megacities, the design of the kitchen in the style of Provence is not used. Consider the main characteristic features of this style.
– Color. Basically, light pastel colors prevail-beige, wheat, pale blue or olive, and, of course, white. All this helps to create the necessary atmosphere of comfort and silence. And the floor, and walls, and the ceiling, and furniture is made in this color scheme. Sometimes in the ceiling decoration it is allowed to use dark beams to create contrast.
– Curtains. Provence kitchen involves either their complete absence, or light, almost weightless tulle. No blinds or dense curtains! The coloring in a small flower or small cage is very welcome, in such cases even the use of dense fabric is allowed. The problem is that for such a fabric, such a coloring is rare enough and such a color scheme is very difficult to realize.
– Furniture. When designing a kitchen design in the style of Provence, give preference to wooden furniture. All sorts of scuffs, chips, cracks and scratches look very organic – deliberate aging of things adds a rural charm to them. It is allowed to use metal parts and elements of manual forging, which are also advisable to previously obey. When choosing a table for the kitchen, give preference to round shape. Well, if the countertop is stone in it, then it can be used as an additional working surface. Do not forget about all kinds of chests of drawers, buffets, cabinets and windows that help you create the necessary mood and strengthen the overall impression.
– Kitchen utensil. Even modern designers, creating the interior of the kitchen in the style of Provence, use this “chip”. Almost all dishes are stored on open shelves or suspended on special boards, becoming an integral part of the general style.
– Flowers and ruffles. There should be many flowers – on windowsills, on the table, on open shelves. Floral colors of curtains, upholstery, etc. are very welcome. D. Use embroidered napkins, porcelain and ceramic figurines and other trinkets, and your cuisine in the Provence style will become unique and unique.
