Materials for body and facades
In order for the coffee kitchen to serve for a long time and not lose its appearance, you need to pay special attention to the choice of materials from which the set is made.
For the production of furniture frames they use:
- Chipboard (chipboard). This is the most affordable and budget option. Due to its low density, the material is easy to saw and other types of machining. Chipboard can be painted and covered with special films. But such furniture is exposed to water and elevated temperatures. In a room with high humidity, the body and facades quickly deform. Another disadvantage of chipboard: over time, the material may begin to release toxins.
- MDF. In terms of production, the material is similar to chipboard, but is of higher quality and reliability. Thanks to the addition of special additives to the composition of chipboard, it is possible to impart fire safety, moisture resistance and heat resistance. Due to the use of special impregnations, MDF is not afraid of mold and other fungi. You can decorate slabs of this type in a variety of ways: using paint, film, plastic. High-quality MDF boards are as similar in structure as natural wood and are environmentally friendly, but at the same time have an affordable price.
- Array. Only premium furniture is made from natural wood. Experts warn that solid wood furniture is susceptible to water and moisture. This set requires special care and frequent polishing.
Each of these materials has its own advantages and disadvantages. When choosing, you need to take into account not only the appearance and style of the furniture, but also take into account financial capabilities.
To give the facades a completed look, the following materials are used:
- Laminate. Most often used for finishing chipboard facades. Lamination is inexpensive and inferior in reliability to other finishing methods.
- Plastic. The material is resistant to mechanical damage, water and moisture. You can create both a glossy and textured surface.
- Polyvinyl chloride film (PVC) is an affordable and one of the most common materials for finishing buildings and facades. The coating lies flat on the surfaces to be pasted and is resistant to various types of damage.
- Enamel. Facades finished with enamel look stylish and modern. Glossy surfaces are created that are more suitable for modern style trends. A distinctive feature of this coating is its wide color variety. More than 700 color options can be found on sale.
- Acrylic. Environmentally friendly and reliable material. Acrylic not only looks great, but also prevents scratches and abrasions and does not fade in direct sunlight.
Each of these materials has its own advantages and disadvantages. When purchasing a set, experts advise giving preference to furniture made from MDF or solid wood. Chipboards have many disadvantages. It is recommended to buy furniture made from this material only if it will not be actively used.
Glossy or matte facades?
The appearance of the set and the entire room depends on the type of facades. When choosing, you need to consider the following points:
- glossy facades are most often used for modern trends, while matte ones are appropriate for classics;
- glossy facades visually make the room more spacious, so they are ideal for small kitchens;
- Any dirt is more noticeable on a glossy surface, but the surface is easier to clean than a matte one;
- abrasions and scratches on matte facades will be less noticeable than on a glossy surface.
Designers do not advise ordering furniture via the Internet and claim that before purchasing sets you need to carefully examine and touch them. This is the only way to evaluate the quality of the material.

Decorating different rooms of the apartment with colors
Designers offer the following options for decorating rooms in a cocoa tone:
The living room can be decorated like this - paint the walls with a whitened cocoa color, for which brown and white paints are mixed. The curtains on the windows are the color of coffee with milk. The floors are covered with wood laminate. The sofa and coffee table are purchased in a cocoa shade. It is better to choose leather upholstery for the sofa. 3 sets of chairs are chosen for the room - 2 in a set. One set of armchairs has milky upholstery, the second has brown upholstery, and the third has a combination of brown and milky tones. The dining table is purchased with a milk top. The bedside table against the wall is a combination one – with milky legs and a brown tabletop. Carpets on the floor with a geometric pattern of chocolate and milk tones. The pillows on the sofa are of different shades to match the main colors of the design. You can recreate this interior with 3 colors by adding gray, but it is more difficult.
A bedroom with cocoa colors can be created as follows. The floors are covered with wood laminate. Recreate the same color on the walls. Buy a trestle bed, which should be placed with the head against the wall. The wall above it and part of the ceiling should be made in the form of beige tiles. Place a golden blanket and brown and beige pillows on the trestle bed. Choose bedside tables near the bed and a chest of drawers opposite in a light wood tone. Hang light tulle without a pattern and heavy chocolate curtains on the windows. Place a striped carpet on the floor - stripes of chocolate and beige shades. Buy lamps with chocolate lampshades for bedside tables. This design will not visually reduce space, but has all the advantages of the chocolate range.
In a kitchen where cleanliness must be visible, and dark tones are not suitable, the cocoa color can be recreated on the countertop of the work area, in the color of the dining table and in accessories. If the walls in a cocoa-colored kitchen are painted in a chocolate tone, you can play with the contrast. To do this, the doorway and windows are made light, and the floors are decorated with tiles in shades of milk.

Finishing a cappuccino kitchen: furniture and more
Contrasting combinations of furniture sets are effective, where the top tier of cabinets is light, almost white, like the foam of this delicious drink, and the bottom is dark.
By playing with all sorts of combinations of flooring, wallpaper, and window design, you can turn your kitchen into a real paradise, an island of calm in this restless world.
However, contrasting combinations are not the standard; in a monochrome design, cappuccino kitchen sets look no less stylish.
Walls
As already mentioned, the coffee-beige shade is universal and provides ample opportunities for experimenting with colors and textures; everything suits it.
The walls in the kitchen pleasantly absorb light furniture
When choosing a background, you should only take into account the size of the room; remember, dark shades will go well with large areas; light beige and off-white furniture will look the same color as them
This range adds elegance to the interior, drawing attention to the surroundings. Small kitchenettes are impressed by light brown walls, shaded with chocolate furniture
A similar color scheme is suitable for decorating an interior in the style of a French cafe, turning it into a cozy bistro, where it is so pleasant to gather with friends over a cup of aromatic coffee.
Floor and doors
For floor finishing, parquet or moisture-resistant cappuccino laminate, imitating natural wood species, is most often used. The color of the laminate in a coffee and dairy kitchen varies from light beige to chocolate, but it is advisable to choose a shade a couple of shades darker than the furniture set.
Cappuccino in the kitchen interior is used not only on walls and furniture; interior openings decorated in a similar color scheme look harmonious. Cappuccino-colored doors in the interior are combined with any decorative elements. The presence of glass inserts will make the space “breathable” and “airy” and will fit into almost any stylistic solution.
In the classic design of a kitchen, the principle of identity is applied, which consists in matching the colors of the floor covering and the door leaf.
To prevent cappuccino doors from getting lost in the interior, designers advise adhering to one more principle - contrast. The installed furniture set should be a couple of tones either lighter or darker than the door leaf.
Decor
The cappuccino kitchen is decorated using various elements: curtains, mirrors, paintings, useful household items, figurines.

Subtleties of design solutions
Shades of coffee will soften the interior, allowing you to concentrate on work or study. The selection of curtains plays an important role in decoration. By changing the curtains alone you can radically change the perception of space. When the room has white walls and south-facing windows, a coffee curtain will allow you to block out the scorching sun and add a color accent.
The coffee shade enhances any room. To create an atmosphere of luxury, it is important to add matching accessories. These could be lamps, figurines, decorative fireplaces or antique furniture.

Grey

It is important to maintain color balance; do not overload the interior with an abundance of accent details, even in spacious rooms
Bronze
The neutral coffee and milk background will sparkle in a new way if you add bronze accessories. These can be floor lamps and lamps, a chandelier, decorative elements of a set, frames and moldings. Bronze figurines, candlesticks, vases and flower pots, and textiles of appropriate design are suitable.
White
Brown-white dominance attracts with its unobtrusiveness, freshness and amazing sensitivity to powdery colors of the natural palette. The combination of different textures is favorable: a luxurious set with a glossy facade emphasizes the noble appearance of leather furniture; the composition is successfully complemented by a thick woolen carpet and jacquard curtains with nylon tulle.
Orange
Light cappuccino and muted orange work well in a duet in modern, high-tech and ethnic interiors. Most often, the beige palette dominates; bright colors are used in doses. However, when creating stylish compositions, even use of milky coffee and orange colors is also allowed.
Green
The combination of natural shades of greenery and cappuccino with the addition of steel colors is considered successful in arranging a room for a teenager. The solution will easily fit into the design of an eco-style room if you use exclusively natural bases.
Ocher
Yellow in the shade of ocher with small splashes of brown is a winning combination for projects in the ethno style. In a small room it is worth adding light colors, cream, pastel colors. In the design of spacious rooms, the tandem of ocher and cappuccino is successfully complemented with muted blue, green and red-brown notes in small quantities.
All in chocolate"
Curtains in brown tones are successfully used in environments where there is no duplication of color.
The only condition is that the window drapery should not be perceived separately and fall out of the general context. For example, in an active black and white design, reed will also be appropriate and will add warm notes to the achromatic monotony. In small rooms, a dark palette will seem gloomy if you do not use curtains in a duet with light muslin, organza, or use fashionable “crinkled” tulle for the company; this solution will neutralize the visual effect. In this case, why not turn to golden ocher, light caramel and that “safe” palette that cannot radically change the space downward.
If you think that these combinations are banal, turn to other colors of the given theme, since there are plenty to choose from. Most likely, you will be surprised by the bold set with active colors: red, pale coral, apricot, light green, yellow. This choice is preferable for active people striving for action and a thirst for celebration. A fringe with metallic threads, an embroidered gold border or single yellow hieroglyphs will help get rid of boring monotony.
In a living room with blue tones, it is appropriate to hang an outfit made of light brown taffeta on the windows, attaching it to a chrome cornice with metal rings or hooking it with grommets. The decoration includes a mint-colored ribbon or a silver chenille stripe, which adds sophistication to the drapery.
What style does it suit?
It’s not for nothing that coffee cuisine is considered universal. As practice shows, a set designed in similar shades can be successfully integrated into almost all style trends, but such a set would look more appropriate in the following styles:
- Classic (combination of basic neutral colors with straight lines).
- Minimalism. To create such an interior, it is recommended to purchase modular furniture and built-in household appliances.
- Modern. The direction is characterized by red, white, and black tones. A coffee set with a bright stone-look countertop will fit perfectly into such an interior. The surface may differ radically from the color of the body and facades, for example, it may be red.
- Provence. Involves the use of pastel wallpaper and a kitchen coffee set with matte fronts. The shade of the furniture can be either light beige or chocolate.
