And the most significant part of the kitchen are its walls. As in any other room, they must have a decent view. How to arrange walls in the kitchen - read below.
Wallpaper
This material is one of the most popular. In the kitchen, gray and beige panels, wallpaper with graphic pattern, image of flowers, kitchen utensils or still life are often used. The most common designer reception is the emphasis wall, when one wall in the kitchen is covered with contrasting wallpaper, and the remaining surfaces are left neutral. Also, an accent can be done not the entire wall, but only its part is a functional zone. When choosing wallpaper for the kitchen, remember that they must meet such requirements: moisture resistance, density, light-resistance, vapor permeability, the possibility of multiple staining. For the kitchen perfectly suitable washable, vinyl, phlizelin, acrylic and glassy. But we will talk about this in more detail in the article "How to find wallpapers for the kitchen."
The liquid wallpaper
This solution for the design of the walls appeared relatively recently. This mass consists of cellulose, cotton fibers, acetate silk and other threads, as well as adhesive substances. The material is considered ideal for hiding cracks, flaws and irregularities of walls in the kitchen. Ideal for this room, as it is easy to clean, does not attract dust, it is possible to repair - enough just to replace the damaged fragment.
Dye
Painting of walls in the kitchen is a practical way to finish, accessible to everyone. But not every coloring composition is able to withstand such a specific microclimate, it is best to give preference to water-emulsion paint. When choosing a substance, consider that it should easily wash in case of drops of fat, coffee, wines, etc. Do not forget to thoroughly align the walls under painting, especially it is important if you are going to use glossy paint, emphasizing the slightest defects. However, the glossy composition has its advantage - it is easier to wash it. Designers are recommended not to be limited in the kitchen in one color and apply the paint of several tones and textures for the functional zoning of the room, for example, the allocation of the working area or the zone at the table.
Decorative plaster
With the help of decorative plaster, you can recreate a unique design of the room. In addition, this material is inherent in such characteristics such as moisture resistance and environmental safety, which explains its popularity when finishing walls in the kitchen. The mixture that is used for plastering contains in its composition grapple sand, particles of algae and marble, therefore, can withstand high temperatures - up to +50 degrees, which is also relevant for the kitchen. Modern technologies allow using plaster to arrange the walls that imitate the bark of wood, natural stone, linen fabric, the skin of wild animals, and if you cover the plaster of the lasted paint - the walls will get a lightweight metal. This finish is perfectly combined with modern appliances.
Ceramic tile
Lined wall tiles in the kitchen - the classic of the genre, which most owners prefer preference. The range of ceramics is impressive. For a small kitchen, a small glossy tile is best suitable, capable of visually expanding space. A large tile is considered appropriate in spacious rooms. The tile made in the patchwork style is successfully used to design a limited space, how the kitchen apron appears. Many manufacturers develop collections of ceramic tiles, including so-called decorative inserts that have all sizes, shape and color. In addition, you can experiment with the laying of tile laying, and with a tone of grouts for seams. To achieve high-quality installation of the tile and the flawless state of the walls, they need to thoroughly align and clean it.
Decorative rock
When designing walls in the kitchen, such a material like an artificial stone is more often used - decorative brick or marble. It is used as for the design of the walls in full, for the same time to distinguish between several parts or one working area in the kitchen, an angle where the coffee table is located, as well as for the framing the doorway. Decorative brick is especially appropriate in Loft style. The walls in this case, as a rule, are left in pristine form, although there is an option to paint into light tones. On a bare brick wall, accessories look good, whether it is a clock or decorative saucer. In addition to the original appearance, artificial stone boasts excellent performance: strength, easy care, water resistance and high temperature.
Plastic panels
Wall panels made of plastic are typical or solid shields for wall covering. For the kitchen, they are a good solution by virtue of their characteristics: microorganisms do not accumulate on their surface, they do not multiply the fungus, they are easy to care, since they are well cooled with heat water, while they are moisture-resistant and resistant to high temperatures and fluctuations. But, nevertheless, it is not recommended to use them near the open fire.
Wood
The trim tree in the kitchen is rare enough. As a rule, the material is used to finish the recreation area, as the wood reacts poorly to the impact of moisture and steam. However, if your kitchen is distinguished by a large area, this solution is quite viable, especially under the condition of its coverage with a special composition made on the basis of wax, for additional protection. An excellent option for the cottage or country house, as the tree is an ecological clean material that creates a special microclimate indoors.
Concrete
Our compatriots are skeptical about this option, we are not used to seeing Russian cuisine with concrete walls. But this material is well suited for use in this room, as it is resistant to temperature differences. If the finish is closed creatively, you can make the kitchen quite original. Concrete is appropriate not only in the Loft style, but also looks spectacular in the classic interior and eclectics. Concrete walls are perfectly harmonized from a tabletop made of decorative concrete.
Wall mural
Many owners refuse to photographs, as this way of finishing walls in the kitchen is old-fashioned mistakenly. And in vain, because it is so possible to make a highlight to a boring interior, revive it, divide the functional zones among themselves. In the case of using panoramic landscape photo wallpapers, be it looks at the old city or megalopolis, the endless ocean or a winding river, the effect of free space is created. Wall murals are also suitable for designing a stylish workshop, if they are covered on top of tempered glass.
Cork coating
The plug has proven itself when the dining area is cleaned. The processed cork truck bark is distinguished by a high level of sound absorption, which is relevant for the kitchen, where all the time gird our disadvantages and friends are being disturbed when some households are already sleeping. The cork covering is not afraid of moisture, fat and soot, does not collect dust and is perfectly clean, it is not a plarers of mold, does not absorb smells formed during cooking, as well as cigarette smoke, does not burn. But for finishing the working space, the cork does not fit.
And finally, we will remind you of the importance of the decor. For decorating walls in the kitchen, panel still lifes with fruit or appetizing reproductions, photos from a restaurant that you visited during the holidays, beautiful dishes, unusual trays, watches, as well as decorative elements made of self-adhesive film.
