Homeowners are moving away from smaller, distinct rooms, as interior design leans increasingly towards an open-plan approach. The design of the modern kitchen now needs to consider the entire living area.
In a small modern kitchen, the use of high seating on an island can serve as living space within your kitchen design. Alternatively, in a large room, the use of a table and dining chairs can complement the design.
With your living and kitchen blended together, the living room and kitchen flooring can be unified, and a large tile in warm colours can be hard-wearing. The addition of a rug will also add warmth and a contemporary feel.
Matching your kitchen design with your living room furniture is a good design idea and can give the room a cohesive feel. Matching wall colours and a considered lighting plan creates the perfect zoned kitchen and living space.
