What is at hand - from that and decor! Or 5 design techniques for decorating floating shelves in your kitchen

The idea of ​​installing floating shelves instead of heavy banal wall cabinets has been gaining more and more popularity lately, but why? Because thanks to such a solution, several serious problems can be solved at once, which one way or another arise in almost every kitchen!

Good afternoon dear friends!

So, what do the shelves give without visible fasteners?! Firstly, they allow not to visually "litter" a small space of the kitchen; secondly, to significantly save on a kitchen set; and thirdly, to demonstrate your unique view of interior design. But this fashionable solution also has one serious drawback - the difficulty of maintaining aesthetic order. I repeat - complexity, but not impossibility!

Since, fortunately, there are at least 5 simple design tricks that can help you design your floating shelves in the best possible way with almost no effort. At the same time, using not only kitchen utensils, but also the things you have at home.

1.Practical trick. Shelves without visible fasteners are, first of all, a profitable and convenient solution. Therefore, try to store utensils on them that are popular all day long. For example, fill the bottom shelf with plates for the first and second courses. Place mugs and glasses above. Well, at the very top, it would be reasonable to place dishes with the least demand - festive.

And one more thing is important to consider! If earlier you were not embarrassed by “devices” from different sets or even the presence of piece items on the table, now the situation requires a different approach. One, maximum two types of kit will be visually attractive. But the variety in dishes on floating shelves will create a tasteless mess!

2.Original composition. For more aesthetics, you can play around and create a whole story installation right on the shelves! Combining everyday objects with decorative elements. Cookbooks, for example. A collection of culinary aids will not only be appropriate as a decorative touch, but also in great demand as a "partner" in the preparation of dishes. You can also "invite" houseplants or containers in which herbs will grow. Pictures and "flowerpots" can also find their place on the shelves.

Just do not need to pile everything up at once. Observe a sense of proportion and only then will you achieve the desired result.

3.Thoughtful approach. The solution, to some extent, has something in common with a practical technique. But only in this case, I suggest filling the top shelf with items purchased specifically for kitchen decor. Elements that will set the tone, bring zest to the interior of the kitchen. For example, exclusive thematic souvenirs, objects of modern art or tableware passed down to you through generations.

Well, again, it is better to give the lower shelf to the mercy of dishes and kitchen utensils for daily use. So it will be easy to get it out and return it back.

4.Layered mix. And this is an option for creative people who prefer a non-standard approach. So what needs to be done? It's that simple! Collect on the shelf a certain collage of objects of different shapes, sizes and intended use. Start with the largest “items”, then add the medium ones, and finally the smallest accessories. But keep in mind that this solution cannot be implemented without a sense of taste and balance.

For without it, it is impossible to correctly distribute objects, taking into account their practical necessity and aesthetic appeal.

5.Finishing touch. When planning the installation of shelves without visible fasteners, in no case should you forget about the space under them (between the tabletop and the lower shelf). Since only competent filling of this space will allow you to aesthetically complete the entire wall composition. Therefore, do not press the shelf too close to the "base", leave room for storing tabletop kitchen utensils.

So that you can lean a couple of wooden planks against the wall, add a bowl of fruit or a basket of bread... Do not be afraid to play with textures and shapes is the only option that can help you add dynamics and style to the interior of your modern kitchens.
