The 70s send their regards

Eine ältere grüne Küche vor der Renovierung

From the colour scheme of the fronts of the heavy-duty pull-outs fitted with chrome handles to the typical tile mirrors on the walls and floor - you can't get more 70s than this. Definitely time for an update!

After: A clean look. The anthracite-coloured fronts and the monochrome kitchen back panel meet warm wood and elegant wall tiles in cream. Last but not least, the lack of handles makes this kitchen modern, contemporary and straightforward. We love cooking here from now on!

Find the error

Before: Die Küche ist alt und wirkt steril. Farbliche Highlights fehlen völlig, wodurch die Atmosphäre eintönig und wenig einladend erscheint. Die Fliesen an den Wänden und auf dem Boden sind ebenfalls alt und tragen zusätzlich zu dem insgesamt unansehnlichen Eindruck bei. Hier ist dringend eine Veränderung nötig, um die Küche wieder zu einem ansprechenden und funktionalen Raum zu machen.

After: Es entstand eine einladende, modern wirkende Küche mit einer Hochglanz-weißen Optik, die durch ihre klare Linienführung besticht. Die dunklen Fliesen setzen einen tollen Kontrast und verleihen der Küche ein edles und hochwertiges Erscheinungsbild. Dadurch entsteht eine Wohlfühlatmosphäre, die zum Verweilen einlädt und den Raum in neuem Glanz erstrahlen lässt.

Before: This kitchen is clearly out of date and doesn't seem particularly inviting, not least because of its ill-conceived colour scheme. In our opinion, the group of chairs belongs more in a diner than in a homely atmosphere.

After: A bright and friendly kitchen in modern country house style. The former seating area has become a peninsula that invites you to linger and offers additional storage space. Above all, the warm wood tones, which are repeated right down to the accessories, and the perfectly coordinated hanging lamps lend a beautiful contrast to the white fronts and the marbled tiled backsplash.

Disturbing factors for a cosy overall picture

Before: Actually not really in need of renovation, the interior still seems quite new. But the fronts seem restless due to the inconsistent colour scheme and the tiles on the floor further support the restless feeling. The island counter seems out of place, the space is not used optimally here.

After: Thanks to a uniform design of the fronts and a larger tile size used on the floor, calm now returns. The colours used are now better coordinated. Moving the counter has meant that two age-appropriate ovens can now find their place. The realignment of the sink provides sufficient work space.
