Functional and impressive. Such is the new kitchen of actress and TV presenter Barbara Kurdej-Szatan.
The kitchen is kept in a minimalist style

The kitchen is not large, but the small space here has been used very carefully. The core of the development is formed by cabinets with smooth, handleless fronts. Thanks to this, the whole retains a minimalist character. Behind them are modern systems of internal organization. After all, in addition to a beautiful appearance, the kitchen must also have perfectly planned storage.

The whole design is kept in classic shades of dark brown and white. This combination emphasizes the classic design of the kitchen. The chocolate brown of the built-in contrasts with the white of the pattern of sintering that imitates marble. This material was used to create the countertop. It can also be found on the wall and even on the floor. Although seemingly delicate, this sinter turns out to be very resistant to all kitchen hazards, including stains, scratches and the effects of water or moisture. It is also easy to maintain in perfect, hygienic cleanliness.

The interior was designed with extreme attention to detail. Attention is drawn to the vertical block with an oven and built-in coffee maker. The two-door refrigerator was hidden behind veneer-effect fronts. Home appliances in black blend almost perfectly into the built-in. On the other hand, black electrical equipment makes the whole thing cohesive. Nothing here disturbs the minimalist and elegant character of the arrangement.

In the upper part hang stylishly illuminated display cabinets. They decorate the kitchen with a view of carefully selected dishes, although at the same time they also have practical storage space under the very ceiling for less frequently used items. The backlights used in the cabinets with tableware add elegance to the interior, and the warm color of the light gives a cozy character. However, they do not serve only an aesthetic function. By using additional lighting, it will be easier to find the things you need.

Decorative elements stand out in this minimalist space. Such as the discreet undermount sink, the chic form of the hanging hood and the gold-colored faucet, which gives the styling a touch of glamour. An interesting solution is the use of a mirror, which multiplies the light coming through the window during the day, and beaming from the modernist lamps in the evenings. It also optically enlarges the space.
