When arranging the interior of the kitchen, the question of decorating the ventilation duct often arises. Various options are possible, depending on the location of the mine. You can try and visually hide a bulky hood, or you can use it functionally. The main thing in your choice is that the kitchen is comfortable and beautiful.
Necessary
- - custom-made kitchen furniture;
- - furniture boards;
- - ceramic tile;
- - textured plaster;
- - fake diamond.
Instructions
Step 1
Consider the presence and size of the ventilation duct when developing the design for the kitchen unit that you are going to order. When designing, there should be no useless area. You can extend the tabletop along the ventilation shaft, then your desktop area will increase. Under the countertop, a floor cabinet with a small depth will fit well for various little things, which are always enough in the kitchen space. If you have a walk-through area past the ventilation box, then order the edges at the countertop and cabinet without sharp corners.
Step 2
Place a bar at the ventilation shaft. It can smoothly bend around the box or abut against it with one end. If you spend a little time in the kitchen, do not arrange family gatherings, then the bar counter can replace your dining table. Which will be a good solution for small kitchen sizes.
Step 3
Decorate the ventilation duct with laminated plywood or melamine-coated furniture panels that match the color of the main kitchen furniture. This moment can be taken into account both when ordering a new kitchen, and when redecorating the premises. Pick up ready-made panels in a hardware store that match the color of the side or front parts of the kitchen set. If such a selection is difficult, then you can make the box an accent spot by sheathing it with materials that are completely different in color. But they should be in harmony with the overall decor of the room. You can hang a flat screen TV or narrow trinket shelves on the boards.
Step 4
Finish the ventilation box with textured plaster, ceramic tiles or artificial stone. When decorating with stone or imitation brick tiles, attach a finished cast-iron valve or grate to the surface, and your problem box will turn into a designer stove or fireplace.
