The interior of this summer kitchen or dining veranda demonstrates a masterful combination of rustic charm and thoughtful functionality. The ceiling with exposed wooden beams creates a sense of spaciousness and emphasizes the vertical geometry of the space. Natural wood finishes on the walls and ceiling bring warmth and coziness characteristic of country style.
A stone oven with a conical-shaped hood acts as the central element of the composition. Its massiveness is balanced by the lightness of hanging lamps – a combination of wrought metal and glass adds sophistication to the interior. Worth noting are the decorative cat figurines on the shelf above the oven – such small details give the space individuality and a homely atmosphere.
The dining area is organized along the long side of the veranda. A massive wooden table accompanied by simple wooden chairs emphasizes the rustic character of the interior. The combination of stone masonry on one wall with wooden cladding on the others creates an interesting contrast of textures, which can be successfully applied when designing the facade of a country house.
Special attention should be paid to the competent organization of space – the kitchen area with the oven is visually separated from the dining area, but forms a unified whole with it. The openness of the veranda toward the garden provides excellent natural lighting and a visual connection with the natural surroundings, which is an important principle of modern country design.
