How to design a modern window

A modern kitchen window does not necessarily need decoration. Minimalist styles often ignore window treatments.

Decoration is not required if the window itself is exclusive or has an unusual shape.

But in most cases, decorative elements of the window opening are used to complete the image of the room.

Let's look at the gallery of photos of kitchen windows, which reflect different trends.

Stylistic solutions for window design

Elegant and strict, this curtain can be decorated with cords, ribbons or fringe.

• Curtains and curtains can be hung on the cornice using eyelets - slits in the fabric reinforced with metal rings. The fabric on the eyelets glides easily along the cornice, creating even folds.

These curtains are easy to use and will add discreet sophistication to the kitchen.

Short curtains also lie flat when using eyelets.

Curtains and tulle - a relic or a classic?

• Classic curtains are smooth sheets of fabric that flow from top to bottom.

Classic will decorate openings with floor-to-ceiling windows.

In a kitchen with a work area near the window, shortened classic curtains up to the window sill are appropriate.

• Arched curtains - replacement for classic ones short curtains– are made from a whole canvas, forming an arched arch in the central part.

Curtains-arches do not prevent natural light from entering the room, do not hide the space and do not interfere with the use of the window sill as an additional work surface.

• Along with arched curtains, lambrequins are often used to cover the upper part of the window opening and have a decorative function.

Arched lambrequins are very harmonious.

Lambrequins are often combined with other decoration techniques.

Internal or interior shutters - shutters - are installed mainly in country houses.

Shutters are popular in the south, where they successfully protect rooms from the scorching sun.

However, even in urban interior design, shutters are suitable for giving the kitchen an exceptional look.

Glass decor

Stained glass is one of the most beautiful ways give uniqueness to the room.

Window options in the kitchen, decorated with stained glass in combination with other decorating techniques, look organic and festive.

Window in the middle and other options

A kitchen with a window in the center is the easiest thing to use when organizing space.

In the following photos, the set by the window in the kitchen fits perfectly under the window opening.

Modern standard houses delight with such an architectural device as a bay window. You can put it in dinner table.

Or move the work area, which will give your eyes rest during kitchen work.

It is convenient to arrange a relaxation area in the bay window: the cozy semicircle of the sofa and the abundance of adjustable light are perfect for relaxing after a meal.

Having a large window in the kitchen in its central part, you don’t have to worry about additional lighting.

The table in the kitchen by the window allows you to admire the beautiful view...

...and enjoy the sunshine.

And in a tiny kitchen you will get a full-fledged working and dining area.

Dining room design with 3 or more windows

More than two windows in a room are less common - as a rule, in private houses with individual layouts or rooms where the kitchen is combined with a dining room or living room.

Even if the windows are small, their increased number gives the room a special charm.

For a large room, many windows are quite reasonable.

Panoramic windows, “looking” in several directions at once, create volume.

Large windows are a gift to the hostess, and the kitchen with large window to the floor - just a holiday!

Such openings provide ideal illumination and a feeling of spaciousness, causing positive emotions provided there is a decent landscape behind the glass.

Work area and tabletop by the window

Living room with kitchen – more space

In many modern apartments Such a combination is initially assumed - for example, in a studio apartment.

The result of the combination is a spacious, multifunctional and light-filled comfortable room.

U-shaped kitchens - when everything is at hand

A common option is a rectangular room in which pieces of kitchen furniture are located on the walls opposite each other.

It is logical that the space under the window be used as much as possible. Most often, in U-shaped kitchens, the end part with the window is used as a workplace.

But you can leave the approach to the window free or organize a relaxation area.

Various options with balcony window

How to decorate a kitchen window with feeling, sense, arrangement

Don't know how to decorate your kitchen window? Do you want a lot of natural light? beautiful decor And functional area near? In this article I will tell you how to use a window sill, get the maximum benefit from the location of the opening and offer options on how to design a window in the kitchen.

Let's put the window sill to good use

Designers have successfully expanded the functions of the window sill.

• A kitchen with a window countertop turns into a trendy dining room.

• A comfortable option if not dishwasher- move the sink to the windowsill. Washing dishes is more fun there: the panorama is captivating and the lighting is bright.

• It is better to put plastic dividers on a deep long window sill - a honeycomb effect. Here you can store kitchen items in drawers. This optimizes the preparation of food as much as possible.

• A cutting table is also appropriate, as an extension of the window sill.. It is well lit, convenient for storing utensils and drinking tea.

• If the tabletop with the window sill is level, above, below it - there are always advantages. A level position increases the size of the tabletop, a higher position will provide it with an inconspicuous shelf, and a lower position will turn it into a stepped counter for a home bar.

The question definitely arises: what to do with the battery. Its union with the window should also be harmonious:

• Cover decorative screen, combined with the pattern of the curtains.
• We paint it to match the furniture. A combination of colors is also allowed: a battery painted like piano keys looks extravagant black and white color(to match the black set, white walls and windows).
• You can disguise the battery with plasterboard under a false wall, leaving the windows.
• If there is a sink under the window, then the battery will hide in the drawer. This will take away the heat transfer, which will lower the temperature in the room.

Playing with the location of the window

It is possible to successfully diversify the window decor in a small kitchen only by taking into account the size and location of the daylight source. The ergonomics of the options are also important here, when the entire space is used rationally.

Window as the center of the kitchen

If our task is to build the entire kitchen ensemble around the window, then best option- kitchen with work area by the window. This idea is now popular in both small apartments(ergonomic and as light as possible) and in large kitchen-dining rooms.

Which plastic window better? A vertical sliding design is preferable in a kitchen with a sink or cooking area near a window, since it opens upward and the doors do not flap from the wind and do not interfere with work.

Let's just solve the problem of how to move the kitchen sink to the window. A plumber or plumber will do this in 2-3 hours. And inexpensive: the cost of work plus additional connections. By the way, such a sink under the window completes the ideal work triangle, when everything you need is half a step away.

Designers also make advantageous use of windows when installing kitchen furniture. For example, they place kitchen set near the window. Of course, its parts do not cover the window opening: tall objects frame it, and low objects act as a continuation of the window sill. Then the window becomes the picturesque center of the set.

But in standard apartments of the last century, the window opening is not so successfully integrated.

We simply decorate a window opening in a small room with curtains that match the color and style of the walls and furniture. At the same time, let the curtains on a small window be higher and wider to make it larger.

In the proposal, the kitchen along the window even “works” square meters above the window opening. Of course, traditionally they are empty, but not in small spaces. Here we will build a shelf for jars. Glass curtains framing the window will also fit well.

Window openings 2 or more

Shelves, shallow mezzanine and kitchen furniture, set at an angle window structures, will take up the remaining space. Then the kitchen with 2 windows will be filled necessary items, which are located at the hostess’s fingertips.

If the structure is combined with a balcony, then angular arrangement of furniture is also welcome. And don’t let the curtains on the window with a balcony interfere with exiting and opening the door.

Design ideas

By decorating the window opening we emphasize the overall style of this room.

Light, even curtains to match the walls are appropriate in a small kitchen, and with coattails - in a large one. Keep cotton and muslin curtains closer to the window and further from the stove.

You can make such a designer masterpiece yourself. For example, light-colored curtains for the kitchen window can be embroidered with beads.

An interesting effect from decorating them with buttons. Just trim it with piping and sew buttons along the edge. Then you will get an original model.

Let's consider practical options:

1. Impregnated fabric blinds mounted on a frame will fashionably decorate the kitchen. The narrow slats are easy to clean.
2. For minimalism and hi-tech, metal or plastic blinds are appropriate.
3. Oriental design involves bamboo products.
4. Roman blinds will stylishly complement kitchen interior and cover from the sun. They are gathered into folds.
5. Roller blinds are in harmony with curtains and are also attached to the frame and rolled into a roll.

A false window on a blank wall overlooking the sea will brighten up any rainy day.

Hiding the unsightly view from the window

If the panorama from the kitchen window is unenviable, for example, the blank wall of a neighboring building, we will glue a sticky patterned film to the glass.

The choice of such special film is large:

• imitation cut glass;
• spraying;
• translucent pattern;
• shaded film;
• color panoramic imitation.

Decorative beads are easy to glue, so we can give the window a luxurious respectability with our own hands. In addition, they do not obscure the room like stained glass.

Instead of curtains there are stained glass windows with geometric patterns. They don't take up space. And the small kitchen will become larger and more elegant.

Conclusion

I described the most best options design of the opening, now you probably know what to hang on the kitchen window. Remember, when planning to decorate a kitchen window, you also need to take into account the size of the room and the location of the opening. It’s interesting to know your ideas for arrangement - write in the comments! And the video in this article will help you update your design.

In modern interior design, every detail is important. In order for all the details to be in harmony with each other, you need to select them correctly. No less important is also given to the window. This is especially true for the kitchen.

Decorating a window in the kitchen

Decorating a kitchen window beautifully is not an easy task. After all, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the place: constant temperature changes, the presence of odors, excess humidity.

They come to the rescue various options window decor using . However, their choice must also be careful and informed.

Curtains will look out of place on. Good decision may be or .

But, if your batteries are not very best view, it is better to abandon this idea. Then hang beautiful curtains or curtains made of light fabric.

It is worth considering when choosing curtains. If this modern style, then Roman blinds, photo curtains or light tulle drapery would be very appropriate.

Country style involves using a lot of fabric. In this case, all textiles must definitely be from the same burlap.

In addition, if they hang on the window, then you can put various decorative items on the windowsill. Most often they are a bowl of fruit (fresh or plastic), a vase of flowers, a few things different sizes pumpkins. In general, everything that lifts your spirits.

Kitchen with two windows

A kitchen layout with two windows is not very common. However, if this is your layout, we can say that you are lucky.

Having two windows has its advantages:

• More daylight.
• From a long window sill you can make or organize a workplace there.
• Psychologically, there is a better perception of cooking and cleaning the kitchen, since the housewife looks not at the wall, but at the view from the window.

The disadvantages include the following:

• If windows are installed poorly, cold air can enter the room in large quantities.
• The second window occupies a part of the wall along which it could be hung for storing dishes or food.

Designing a kitchen with two windows is not so difficult. The main thing is to combine the opportunities that present themselves with desires.

For example, storage niches can be placed under the windows. If the distance from the floor to the window is within seventy centimeters, then it is better to make dining area, since in this case the tabletop will be low and it will be inconvenient to work on it.

Tabletop by the kitchen window

Most often, when the kitchen is small and every meter is important to use it functionally, a countertop is installed near the window. For this technique to look harmonious, it is necessary to make the window sill a continuation of the existing table. To do this, it is important that both the window sill and the tabletop are on the same level.

Therefore, before making repairs, you should already know exactly what kind of kitchen furniture you will have. In almost all room layouts, the radiators are located under the windowsill.

In our case, it is better to try to move the radiators to another place, and make shelves under the tabletop for storing kitchen utensils or other necessary items.

In general, you should take into account the area of ​​the kitchen and from there base the design of the countertop. In a small kitchen it will be very harmonious and functional if the countertop, which is installed instead of a window sill, smoothly transitions into. Then you will get a fairly large dining area.

For a medium-sized kitchen, a countertop instead of a window sill can be a separate work area.

You should also remember that it is necessary to leave free space for opening the window sashes. Therefore, you should not place tall objects or decorated vases on such a tabletop.

If you still can’t leave that number of centimeters, then it is recommended to install sliding window, which opens like a wardrobe.

Let's consider which material is most optimal for a tabletop near a window.

Most often used:

• stone;
• marble;

The most budget option There will be chipboard and MDF. At the same time, you can make the countertop yourself, since processing these materials is quite easy. But it is worth remembering that chipboard and MDF should not be wetted too much or too often. Otherwise, such a tabletop will not serve you for long.

Marble or stone is used very rarely and most often in expensive interiors. If the kitchen is very small, then you can design a folding tabletop. It is easily adjustable and does not clutter up the kitchen space.

Sink by the kitchen window

When a renovation is started, you want the result not only to look beautiful, but also for all the things and details to be as functional as possible. This is especially true for small kitchens. Modern design The kitchen includes a sink near the window. This has its advantages.

Very often the place by the window is not involved in any way in the interior. Washing by the window frees up additional space. So, where it was previously located, you can make a working surface.

This technique will help save electricity. Since most often the sink is located in a corner where there is little light, you always have to turn on the light. If you install the sink near the window, then this need disappears.

Uplifting mood. The reluctance to wash dishes is caused by the monotony of the work, plus your gaze always rests on the wall. When washing by the window, you will be able to observe everything that is happening on the street, and beautiful view from the window can bring a little joy to the process of washing dishes.

Of course, with such a layout, difficulties during repairs cannot be avoided. But don't be afraid in advance. Everything has a solution. So the question immediately arises, where to put the battery?

Old layouts do not provide for the possibility of moving radiators. But technology does not stand still. It can serve as an excellent heater. Therefore, the batteries are simply removed.

Moving the sink to the window will also require lengthening the pipes that lead to the water riser. You will have to spend money and think wisely about how to disguise the pipes.

A problem arises such as splashes on the window. But this problem is completely solvable. You can move the sink as far as possible from the window using a window sill.

Another way is to install not a metal sink, but one made of granite or stone. This material does not allow water droplets to repel and fly away over a long distance.

In older kitchen layouts, the window sill is located above the level of the countertop. This creates an additional barrier against splashes hitting the window.

It is worth noting that if there is a sink near the window, it may be difficult to open it. The modern design of the equipment allows the installation of removable taps. All you need to do is just bend it and then you can safely open the window. Or you can install a small height mixer.

Using window space correctly

It is not necessary to install a countertop or bar counter instead of a window sill. There are many ways to properly use every free meter near the window. For example, you can organize storage space kitchen appliances and instruments.

Don't be discouraged if you have a small kitchen. As you can see, a window can help you decide on the distribution of furniture and storage space.

To make the interior look harmonious, seek help from professional designer. If you don’t have extra money for this, and their services are not cheap, then you can look at photographs of real interiors.
