Let’s talk about storage in the kitchen. What you like best: open racks or closed cabinets? You yourself cannot decide in any way? Then this article is for you. Today we have selected all the pros and cons of these two options. Look, think and decide for yourself.
Open racks in the kitchen
Lovers of the cottage casual style in design, as well as connoisseurs of Scandinavian motifs in the interior, gravitate to open shelves in the kitchen. For many people who use open racks, they are made manually, which adds a special note of chic.
In general, headsets with open shelves or headset with the absent upper component are cheaper. If your kitchen is interesting walls, then this option may be perfect for you. With the help of items that you place on open shelves, you can change the interior almost every day – just update the decor and arrange a different kitchen utensils with spices. In addition, all objects will always be in sight and at hand.
The minus of the open shelves is that they constantly need to be maintained in a neat state. If you and your family are used to living in a greater chaos than order, then this option is clearly not for you. Everything should be clean and beautiful on the shelves. Disgusting metal army circles and a long -rusted frying pan do not belong to an open rack.
Closed cabinets in the kitchen
Kitchen cabinets may look like works of art – from materials of natural eco -wood or stainless steel, with patterns and beautiful fittings… But let’s just say – the more intricate the design and better materials, the more expensive the finished headset will cost. Simple kitchen sets with fully closed cabinets need to be able to place in the interior so that they do not reduce the space of the room.
Closed cabinets, although they reduce the possibilities of point decoration, provide more space for hiding kitchen gadgets, food products, dishes and other things that are stored in the kitchen. They are charming for families where things tend to accumulate and at the same time there are problems with the organization of storage. This, as they say, will help you hide not only a mess, but also human disadvantages of organization.
You can combine two styles by diluting open shelves with hidden cabinets. However, one way or another, most ready -made kitchens in the market belong to either one or another type.
Advice. If you are not prone to accuracy and frequent cleaning, do not choose open shelves. It may seem to you that for the sake of them you will overcome your unwillingness to restore order, but this is unlikely. Especially if you do not have enough time for this. Dust will constantly settle on the shelves and their contents, so even if you do not intend to use the kitchen in general, the appearance of the headset will quickly gain a disgusting dirty look.
