Kitchen design options with a bay window P-44T

The design of a kitchen with a bay window of the P-44T series can be considered an exception to the rule rather than something ordinary. As a rule, a bay window is designed in houses with individual layouts and is rarely used in mass developments.

First, let's figure out what a bay window is. This is an architectural solution in which there is an area protruding beyond the line of the facade. Such a non-trivial project in the house requires a special attitude to interior design, gives additional opportunities in the arrangement of furniture, design of the window opening.

Any architectural solution has advantages and disadvantages. Regardless of size and shape, bay windows are uniform in their properties.

Among the pluses it is worth noting:

• an increase in space, because going beyond the facade makes the area a little larger, respectively, the possibilities for creating an interesting and functional interior increase;
• unusual, spectacular half-window and bay window, individuality, different from typical projects;
• the opportunity to enjoy the view from the window, arrange a dining area with a triangular arrangement;

• if the association is not suitable for any of the reasons, there is the possibility of zoning this room, including in it a wide variety of functionality - from dining to work or decorative;
• a large window assumes a sufficient amount of natural light, respectively, the room will be brighter and more spacious thanks to panoramic glazing;
• in addition to the ultramodern design, the panorama has another tangible advantage - it significantly saves energy;
• if there are no batteries in the bay window, you can design and install the sofa close to the windows.

Among the disadvantages of this architectural project, attention should be paid to the following:

• significant heat loss, since a large number of glasses are not able to retain heat in the same way as walls, which means that you will have to think over heating and spend money on the services of heating companies, installation of heating systems according to modern standards, and increase thermal insulation;
• since there are quite a few window openings, an aquarium impression may be present, a certain proportion of the feeling of a closed room will disappear, which will affect comfort, however, this problem can be completely eliminated by curtains made of dense fabrics or mirror-type pollination outside the windows;

• for competent design, it is not enough to know the dimensions, you need to know at least the main points of design solutions in non-standard rooms;
• you will have to take into account all the nuances associated with the interior of the premises with the presence of a considerable amount of glass, it is impossible to litter the bay window space.

Since the shape of the bay window kitchen is non-standard, does not correspond to strict geometric canons, it will require a fair amount of imagination and effort from the owners.

Bay window layouts can be of different forms:

• semicircular;
• polygonal;
• by the type of trapezoid;
• triangular;
• by the type of rectangle;
• with a half-window.

There are many features that you should definitely consider when designing a design in such a kitchen.The layout can be thought out in terms of two main functional points - placement in a bay window of a work or dining space.

The area for working in the bay window is a very unusual design solution, you can cope with it only by ordering a kitchen set according to an individual plan. Zoning in this vein will allow you to arrange the work area right next to the window, under natural light, which will bring some comfort to the cooking process. A bottom cabinet with a ventilation box can be placed to create a small additional refrigerator. There will be no problem with the duct outlet.

A panoramic dining area is the most popular choice. It is not surprising, because the location of the dining table in the bay window allows you to enjoy the view outside the window; it would be appropriate to consider the possibility of installing panoramic window openings.

A great solution is to design a bay window as a recreation area. This non-trivial way to decorate your kitchen allows you to place armchairs or a sofa, a coffee table in it. If the area of ​​the apartment allows, such a design will allow you to look at your apartment in a completely different way, highlight your favorite corner for reading or a hobby.

Another way to use bay window zones as an office. There you can place a desk, computer, chair and storage space for office supplies. Especially this option will appeal to creative people and those who work at home on a computer. After all, the view from the window is a great source of inspiration.

Lovers of home flora should consider using the bay window as a winter garden. Growing your own mini-garden with luxurious flowers, tropical plants and incredibly decorating the interior will seem tempting for many home plant lovers. Moreover, a large amount of natural light will be to the taste of green spaces.

An unusual solution can be considered the decoration of the bay window in the style of the entire kitchen, but without functional use. You can not place furniture in it at all, but use it as a place for a Christmas tree, or you can sketch chaotically soft pillows and just spend time there with a book.

At the same time, a plus and a minus of the kitchen with a bay window in its uniqueness. Plus - in some interior design options, the architectural ledge will create another chic twist. At the same time, it will significantly limit the range of choice among styles, because not every bay window will fit harmoniously.

Timeless and current classical style implies laconicism, restraint of colors, shapes, lines, accessories. Ornate lines, inappropriate catchy details should be avoided. Nobility and neutrality, aristocratic modesty should be present in every subject. If we talk about the distinctive features, then this is the naturalness of the materials, for example, solid wood.

A common mistake is made by those who consider modern to be one of the avant-garde style trends. In fact, Art Nouveau is distinguished by graceful furniture, graceful details, lines of a smooth, non-irritating type. There are a huge number of possibilities for using materials; wood, metal and glass will fit perfectly. Moreover, they are perfectly combined with each other.

The characteristic features of hi-tech are clear lines, cold shades, strict abrupt transitions. As for the materials, the best finishes are glass, metal, plastic. Shining, glossy surfaces are great for expanding space.

The French province, with its rustic sophistication, blends wonderfully with striking architectural details. Rely on floral motifs, delicate pastel colors, smooth lines, shabby chic accessories. A dining table with "antique" cracks and scuffs, placed by the window, will perfectly fit into such an interior.
