Kitchen Design Ideas for Various Weather

Do you own a house? Surely there is bound to have a kitchen room. A special room for cooking, cooking and putting all kinds of utensils for food. Kitchen designs differ from country to country. Sometimes, people enter their own ethnicity to make the kitchen have the feel of their own country. This time, we will discuss why not include some international kitchen design ideas into your home?

Climate The weather in every country is different. And it is this different climate that has a huge influence on the way we live. Homes with constantly hot climates are built in a completely different way from those that have to withstand dramatic changes from one season to another.

In a country where most of the year the food is cooked with dishes such as barbecue cooked outdoors and meals eaten outdoors, a simple kitchen design may reflect this lifestyle.

Kitchen Outdoor

Make sure that you are well ventilated to keep the cool atmosphere in the house and that should be your main concern. And of course efficient cooling is essential if perishable food is to be stored safely.

Choosing lightweight furniture that can easily be moved to a garden, or to a veranda or patio is another practical aspect to consider, usually made of woven cane or wood in a pale color.

If it's consistently hot outside, you might prefer to make a kitchen that will appear visually cool as well by designing a pale, soothing color scheme.

You can use a shaded blue or gray with pale painted walls and try to avoid intricate patterns that will disturb your sense of calm. However, keep in mind that this decorative scheme requires lots of clear bright light, or the coolness tends to be clinical and inhospitable.

You see, the attractiveness of public life in rural white villages in southern Spain, Provence and Tuscany is partly due to the other colors - taken from the surrounding countryside - combined with the white.

Baked terracotta, natural sandstone and dusty pink color also provides warmth in winter, which is often very cold. Of course you can get inspiration and decorative ideas from holidays abroad, but moving style from one country to another can be very dangerous: colors that look sensational in the sun can feel suffocating, unless you can reproduce the same light, in a natural or artificial way.

Kitchen with Windows Outdoor

Thick wooden shutters, or canvas canopy, serve not only to provide shade in summer but also protect from freezing winds. Stone or tile floors are very cool in summer and can be warmed up with a mat or rug if necessary. And you may have a door that opens directly from the kitchen to the garden that can be left permanently open in fine weather to allow a cool breeze to refresh the kitchen.

But cool winds become icicles when it happens in winter. So it may need to be weather resistant as you put up warm, colorful curtains as well. And flexible yet reliable heaters that can respond quickly to changing weather are the modern conveniences that nearly everyone takes in.

It obviously makes sense to wait a year before you make an important design decision, unless you are absolutely certain you can anticipate seasonal weather changes.
