Kitchen without an upper tier - how is it?

Therefore, everyone is looking for suitable interior design options and non-standard solutions that will help make the room more pleasant and interesting. One such solution is the absence of the upper tier in the kitchen, in whole or in part. Now this design is quite popular. Its demand is explained by the fact that it looks quite fresh and departs from the stereotypes of the arrangement of kitchen furniture, when both the floor and the walls are occupied by cabinets. Naturally, kitchens without an upper tier have a lot of their advantages.

Space

Of course, in fact, no additional space appears, since the upper tier is located on the walls, and not on the floor. However, the visual effect is stunning - the room immediately becomes more spacious, lighter and the interior itself looks lighter. This is a great option if your kitchen is not well lit with natural light - this way the light itself will penetrate and spread better. Often such tricks are used in other rooms, the bedroom, for example, to make the room visually lighter and more spacious.

Purity

It is very difficult to take care of the upper tier. The top of the cabinets is hard to reach, so you have to stand on a chair to wipe it down, and sometimes that's not enough. Of course, this problem is very conditional, but it can be solved very simply - remove the upper cabinets. And then there will be no need to jump on chairs in an attempt to reach hard-to-reach places, and the dust itself will not fall from above, just as midges will not nest.

Convenience

Similarly with the previous paragraph, using the upper tier is not always convenient. This is especially true for items that you place on the upper shelves. Even fairly tall people can experience inconvenience, let alone people of medium or short stature. So the lack of an upper tier can be quite convenient. Moreover, this can be seen in the same children’s room, since children cannot reach high-placed objects.

Non-standard

Instead of the classic upper tier, it becomes possible to realize some creative impulses. For example, place an interesting tile pattern on the walls. Or add pictures. Also, a good option is a beautiful and high-quality wall panel. Simply put, the absence of an upper tier makes it possible to diversify a fairly standard kitchen interior and make it non-trivial.

Availability of alternatives

If you still cannot do without the top tier, but you are confused by its bulkiness, then you can completely replace it with simple wall shelves. They perfectly perform the required functions, but at the same time look lighter and do not overload the interior. Now in general there is a tendency to replace cabinets, chests of drawers and other bulky furniture items with lighter whatnots, shelves, open cases. And this can be seen not only in the interior of the kitchen, but also in the interior of the living room, for example.

As you can see, the indicated advantages can play a big role in the convenience of the room and in the quality of its appearance.
