Before you buy your vending kitchen furniture, you must measure your kitchen, draw its plan and figure out what and where to put. Whatever the shape and dimensions of your kitchen, with its design they must necessarily take into account and make maximum use.

The style of your kitchen can be anything - from classic to modern. However, the more expressive type of cuisine, and avant-garde of its design, the greater her chances of quickly go out of fashion.

Colours kitchen should help to relax or, conversely, have a catalytic effect. In the kitchen, which is constantly overheating, good cold colors - shades of blue, gray and green. In the dark kitchen is better to use pastel colors - lemon, pink, pistachio, apricot, peach. Try to avoid saturated colors, contrasting colors and complex patterns on the working surfaces of tables and small areas of walls.

The service life of kitchen equipment is determined by the years. German factories are oriented at 15-20 years, Finnish - 10-15, Czech guarantee about 10 years of operation. Russian producers, even when using imported components, talk only about 8-10 years. The Italians offered to change the situation every 5-6 years, but not because of quality furniture, but in order to cope with stress and monotony. Operating hours of kitchen furniture also depends on what materials were used in its manufacture.
As the hull material for kitchens are used (in descending order of price) tree, multiplex, MDF and particleboard.

For the production of furniture is used more than 40 species of wood. Her carefully dried and treated with special structures for protection against environmental influences.
Has proven its value and natural material multiplex - glued in different directions thin layers of wood of different species. This material is less susceptible to water than solid wood, and not deformed.
Most kitchens are used for the manufacture of modern particleboard, MDF and other types of plates. If resources permit, it is better to prefer MDF as a more durable and environmentally friendly material.

Recently, an increasing spread in the manufacture of kitchen equipment becomes metal. The front panel, including door of the wardrobe is more common milder compared to steel, aluminum with anodized coating (which increases its durability). A satin steel kitchen makes a spectacular view, but requires careful maintenance.

From the modern high-strength glass door cabinets and make the shelves, because furniture glass stand not only a great weight, but blows.

As contributions to the work surfaces - worktops - except for the listed materials, natural, synthetic and artificial stones.
Granite is durable and iznosoustoychiv little sensitive to acids.
Travertine marble and heat-resistant, but have a porous structure, so they often form patches of grease and wine. But the marble countertop can choose from a variety of colors.
Synthetic stones - crystal, aksilan, varikor, Corian and others - in no way inferior to the natural counterparts, and often surpass them on practicality.
The basis of artificial stone - sand, quartz, acrylic, glass fibers, Bauks and strong coupling. Artificial stone lighter natural, easy handling, hygienic, durable and Heat-resistant (withstands heat to 230 degrees).

As cladding materials for the production of kitchen most often used veneers - natural and synthetic, and polymers - laminate and melamine. When covering the surface of natural wood veneer is cut thin and then attached to a standard basis. With the help of synthetic veneers can simulate not only the tree, but many other materials, and special protective film replaces the lacquer and other ways to finish trim.
Laminate and melamine was used as artificial surfaces for particle board and fiberboard. Melamine-covered surface, are not designed for high mechanical loads, while the laminate thicker, stronger and more durable, so from laminated boards make even countertops.
