Expert opinion
Romanova Ksenia Petrovna
Interior design expert and fabric store manager
A small round glass table in a small kitchen will seem invisible. In combination with transparent plastic chairs, this is an excellent option for visually expanding the space.
- A medium-sized kitchen of 9-12 sq.m is a common option in modern apartments and new buildings.
Here you can accommodate a medium-sized dining table for 4 people, for example, Ingatorp.
The best solution would be to choose a model with a round tabletop to comfortably accommodate all household members.
