Building their own housing, each person strives to make it as convenient and comfortable as possible. It doesn’t matter if the interior is decorated in the same style or not. The main thing is for the family to feel comfortable. Any room in the house has its own special purpose, however, the kitchen was and remains a place for storing the hearth.
In a private house, a country house, provide a place where they store food, kitchen utensils, wash dishes, cook food. You can’t do without a kitchen. But in the summer, when the heat comes, the time of spins comes, it is unbearably in the house. It is much more pleasant to spend time in the fresh air, to carry out their activities under a canopy in a purged building. Understanding this situation, weighing the pros and cons, many owners build summer kitchens on their site.
Having made the decision to erect a structure, one should decide on its type, choose a location, think over the time period of operation, cooking will take place in the warm season or continuously, regardless of seasonality. Consider the possible types of street buildings:
Open. It is a structure in shape similar to a gazebo, a canopy, under the roof of which are located all the necessary attributes (table, chairs, gas stove, sink, refrigerator). It features a complete or partial absence of walls. Such a structure has a simple structure, it can be quickly built at minimal cost, due to the natural air circulation there will be no extraneous odors. The room has inherent disadvantages: it can be used only in the spring-summer period, when the air is warmed up and it is warm enough around; with the onset of cold weather, most items will have to be removed from the street.
Closed. Capital construction. It has walls and windows. At its construction, they provide for the availability of engineering infrastructure: lighting, water supply, electricity, sewage, heating. Such measures allow the use of the building all year round. In addition, the pavilion can have not only a standard gas stove, many install fireplaces, stoves. Such a structure will cost significantly more than an open one.
Combined.The construction combines an open and closed space under a common roof. Food is prepared in a sheltered room, and the dining area is located outdoors. It is comfortable to relax here. There are also disadvantages - this is the most expensive, structurally complex project.
By the method of location on the kitchen area are divided into two types:
Freestanding. Removed from home. They build in the presence of a large house area. This arrangement does not allow smoke and odors to enter the home.
Adjacent to the house. They have a common wall with the main structure. A good option for the location of the extension on the terrace, veranda, communication with the house is very convenient. There are drawbacks to such a neighborhood: the aroma of food being prepared, heat gets into the main structure; part of the summer kitchen serves as a passage to the house. To avoid this, the kitchen must be attached from the front side.
Choose a location
Having decided on the appearance, having made a firm decision to build a summer kitchen on your own site, we proceed to finding the optimal place that it will occupy. Unsuccessful placement will complicate the construction, will lead to inconvenience during the operation of the facility. To make the right choice, the following nuances should be considered:
Remoteness from home. The closer the object, the easier and cheaper it is to carry out all the necessary communications. It is easier for residents to move between buildings located nearby. Of course, from an aesthetic point of view, the structure looks spectacular, built in the garden near the fountain, the artificial reservoir, but walking three times a day to eat at the other end of the site is not very comfortable.
No odors. Each private courtyard has additional buildings that can not be dispensed with, but not always pleasant aromas come from them. When choosing a place, you need to get as far as possible from the enclosure with animals, a barn, a street need, a sewer well, and other sources with an unpleasant smell.
When planning an open, half-open kitchen, protection from wind and sunlight should be taken into account. A dense crown of trees will protect against natural factors.You can also plant climbing ampelous plants.
Fire safety. Flammable objects and buildings must not be around. If open fire is used, the distance to such objects should be between 8 meters.
When placing a stove with barbecue, a barbecue should be removed from the neighboring area in the kitchen so that the smoke does not cause a conflict.
Decide on the kitchen project
Convenience, practicality, functionality, aesthetics - the qualities that this extension should have, what the owner expects from it. The summer kitchen project is of great importance. Everything is painted in it to the smallest detail, from a separate part to the final structure as a whole. You can take a ready-made plan by contacting professionals, try yourself as a designer.
Work begins with a drawing, creating a layout. Everything is taken into account: foundation, flooring, facade, roof, windows, doors. Lighting, sewer communications, gas supply are provided. After the layout of the internal situation is introduced into the project. The design of the building is considered, which should be combined with the general development, not to disturb the surrounding landscape. Building materials are chosen the same as for a residential building.
The design phase includes the location of the object on a common site, the calculation of the size of the structure, the amount of materials for construction, the possibility of using the structure year-round or seasonally. An important role is played by the budget allocated to this undertaking, which can make its own adjustments.
Design and design of a summer kitchen
The aesthetic side is just as important as the functionality of the building. Of course, it should not contradict the design of the house, but it all comes down to the preferences of the owner. If desired, it can be made an accent object of the entire site.
Construction begins with a carefully thought-out design.The original building will delight guests, delight the household, especially women who spend a lot of time here. Elegant rooms are decorated in the following styles:
Russian. Outside, the building resembles a log hut. The main attraction is the stove. Inside there is a massive, roughly processed wood furniture, which, as a rule, does not have upholstery.
Provence. The decoration is made of wood, which is intentionally given an aged look. Internal colors - beige, white. Forged items are used. The walls feature characteristic paintings. Choose people who are tired of ostentation, who want to recreate a romantic rural lifestyle in the interior.
Country. It is most often used for combined structures decorated in the style of a North American farmer's house. It features a modest finish, a natural palette of colors. Use only furniture, decoration, utensils made of natural materials - wood, stone, glass, aluminum, copper. It features an abundance of textiles, handmade items.
There are many styles of design, they are often found: Mediterranean, Scandinavian, Oriental, minimalism, eco-style, others.
Building an open summer kitchen on your own
The construction is based on the principle of a canopy, arbors. It is a support beam installed on the base, covered with roofing material from above. You can build an open type object yourself. The ways of building a lot, however, in stages everything looks as follows:
Site selection, designing, preparation of tools, building materials;
Marking of the selected site, its preparation;
Foundation pouring;
Installation of bearing beams, supports;
Roof installation;
Interior decoration, engineering communications;
Installation of appropriate furniture;
The construction of approaches in the form of paths, trails, when moving away from home.
Foundation and its types
Before starting work on pouring the foundation, the site selected for construction is leveled, everything extraneous is removed. Next, markup is made, which begins with a peg driven into the ground, symbolizing the corner of a future building. It serves as a guide from which lines are laid perpendicular to each other, to the following angles. Next, a string is drawn between them, the length of the diagonals is measured. Having designated the area of the structure, proceed to the base.
The summer kitchen is built on a strip, columnar, monolithic foundation. For example, for wooden walls, a columnar base is enough, brick - a tape base. If you plan to place: a Russian stove, barbecue, barbecue - pour a monolithic foundation, which some owners use as a floor. Let us consider in detail each type and method of filling it:
Columnar. For small buildings with a size of 2x3 meters, it is enough to dig a hole up to one meter deep at the corners of the marking. Their diameter will depend on the materials used for the foundation. Sand and gravel are poured into the bottom and rammed. You can put a sewer plastic pipe, pour concrete, a support beam will be placed inside or on top of the column; or lay out a brick from a square, with a metal profile installed inside the masonry, a bar, a pile. The height of the foundation is determined by the level, usually a stretched twine.
Tape. According to the marking, a trench digs up to 60 cm deep and 40 cm wide. A formwork is installed on the sides, a reinforcing layer is laid. Concrete mortar is poured from above.
Monolithic. The topsoil is removed to a depth of 30 cm. Geotextiles are laid over the entire area, sand is poured over crushed stone. Next, the pouring sequence is similar to the strip foundation.
Summarize the communication
Without utilities, the summer kitchen will be an inferior structure.After all, when cooking, you will need a gas stove, a wood-burning stove, you can’t do without electricity in the dark, and after each meal mountains of utensils are formed that need to be washed. Let's consider in detail how to make a functional room.
Water supply and drainage system
Wiring for water supply can be done independently. The source is a centralized and decentralized water supply system. Depending on the remoteness of the object from the house, pipes can be stretched directly from it, connected to a common system, or drilled a well, install a pump.
For open kitchens, a summer plumbing, which is used only in warm weather, is quite suitable. It can be collapsible and stationary. The first is quick assembly and disassembly, located on the surface. The second is laid underground at a shallow depth. Consists of thick-walled rubber hose, plastic pipes. In winter, the water drains.
In addition to the described examples, as a source of water use: wells; natural, artificial ponds; rainwater collected in the tank. However, the liquid in them is dirty, has many impurities, and therefore requires special cleaning, filtration.
Another thing is with sewage. Connecting to your home will be harder. For a drain of water a certain bias is required. Therefore, they dig a drain hole nearby, install a septic tank, concrete rings. Pipes are placed underground, therefore, for a kitchen with a monolithic concrete base, they are laid during the construction of the foundation. The release of sewers from the kitchen is done at a depth of at least thirty centimeters.
Electricity
Work begins with the preparation of a general power supply scheme for the facility. The drawing should indicate the location of the wires, wiring devices. For a summer kitchen attached to the house, it is much simpler to conduct electricity, it is enough to connect an electric point in the house with a cable to the shield in the annex with a cable.
A stand-alone building requires power supply in accordance with safety standards. For example, if grounding is provided in the outlet, then a three-core cable must be laid to it, one wire of which will be grounding.
Cable wiring can be done in two ways: by air; underground. The second option is the most reliable. It protects the wire from precipitation, mechanical damage. The depth of the line should be more than seventy cm. Near the building, the cable goes outside and starts into the shield. The final step will be the wiring to the electrical points.
Natural gas
If water and electricity can still be carried out independently, then the situation with natural gas is much more complicated. To gasify the summer kitchen, you should contact the gas supply service. They must issue a new gasification project for the site. In this case, only capital buildings are considered. You can connect informally, but if you find a violation of the responsibility does not go.
Having collected the required documents, it will not be difficult to carry out natural gas. For installation work, usually invited experienced professionals who will connect the kitchen to the centralized gas supply system.
An alternative to natural gas can be a gas cylinder. Its installation, replacement must also be performed by qualified craftsmen, observing all the requirements of fire safety rules.
The construction of bearing supports and installation of the canopy
Bearing supports can be made of brick, stone, wood, metal pipes, profiles, concrete columns. There are combined designs. They are installed on the foundation at the intended angles of the structure being erected. Wooden and metal poles can be poured with concrete, i.e. partially located in the foundation, with a necessarily right angle. When constructing a shed roof, the height of the beams is made different, depending on the angle of inclination of the roof.Gable, four-gable - rely on proportionally high supports. The upper edges of the pillars are tied with a strapping over which rafter legs are installed.
The next step will be the installation of the roof. In an open structure, roof insulation is not required. But you can install a waterproofing layer, which is laid on the rafters. Then they install the crate, proceed to fasten the roofing material, which is represented by metal tiles, metal profiles, slate, polycarbonate, and other materials.
Floor device
There are many options for flooring. As a flooring, you can use a concrete slab, floor, terrace board, lining, clinker brick, paving, ceramic tile. Each type of building material has its own design.
If a monolithic foundation is poured, then it can also be used as a floor covering. The best option is ceramic tile. It is most suitable for the kitchen. Easy to clean, neutral to temperature extremes. Before laying, prepare the base, it should be smooth. The best base is a concrete screed, but you can use wood, chipboard. Next, marking is applied, glue is kneaded, styling is performed. To align the seams, crosses are inserted at the corners of the tiles.
Clinker brick, paving slabs are laid on a prepared foundation, consisting of compacted crushed stone and sand. The floor, terrace board is attached to the floor wooden logs, lathing.
Arrangement of a stationary barbecue or stove
To install the stove requires a capital base. In the summer kitchen, it is rational to build a multifunctional, complex construction, including a barbecue, a roasting pan, a tandoor, a cauldron, a fireplace, a smokehouse, and a firewood man. Furnace arrangement should be provided for in the design of the facility under construction.
You can build a brazier with your own hands. To do this, you need to prepare a tool, purchase building materials.Wait for the foundation to stand, fully harden. Next, waterproofing is laid on it (roofing material covered with a plastic film). Then you can build brick walls. A step-by-step procedure is as follows:
The plastic film is lightly sprinkled with sand. Dry brick is laid on top of the entire plane. The solution lubricates only the joints between the rows;
The base is laid out;
Next, a partition is made for the firewood, the construction of walls continues;
A brazier, barbecue net is installed above the partition;
The final stage is the installation of the hood.
Chimney construction
The stove and chimney are built only of refractory bricks. This design quickly removes smoke, is easy to maintain, less metal is heated, has an excellent design. The hood can be laid out only of brick, contain a metal dome inside, lined with ziegel. A shutter is installed in the lower part, and a protective umbrella protecting from atmospheric precipitation on top.
In order for the chimney to fulfill all its functions, take into account its features. The highest point should be more than three meters above ground level. Go beyond the roof. Thrust directly depends on the height of the pipe. The shape of the hood affects the optimal internal size. For a round pipe, the diameter should be more than 15 cm, for a square chimney, a diagonal exceeding 35 cm is suitable.
Features of the construction of a closed kitchen
The variety of enclosed buildings is great. Site preparation, foundation pouring, frame installation, roofing are identical to open objects. The main difference is the presence of full walls. For their construction, brick, foam concrete block, glued beam, other materials are suitable. Consider the option of constructing a closed kitchen using the example of a log house structure.
The most convenient design of the bottom frame of the frame is two rows of bars, knocked together, mounted on a columnar foundation.To begin with, the beams are treated with engine oil, and then dried. When laying, the corner cutting method is used when the contacting edges of the bars come into each other. In the beams of the upper row, the grooves of the overlap lag are cut.
Then proceed to the arrangement of the mortgage crown (bottom row). The thickest logs are selected. Below, in the place of contact with the harness, wooden decks are chipped so that the contact is maximized. After stacking the remaining rows of logs. Between them is provided a heater (moss, felt). A lock connection can be: “into the bowl”, “into the paw”, chopping into a hook, Finnish log house, Swedish castle and others. Mauerlat - the upper crown, is a support for the roof.
Planning and arrangement
In the private courtyard, a summer kitchen design is being designed, which aesthetically corresponds to the main residential building. At the same time, in the country they do not use strict style binding of one structure to another.
Having built a summer kitchen, they begin to equip the premises. To do this, perform the interior decoration. For example, you can sheathe walls with plastic, drywall, wall paneling. Next, they install furniture, connect electricity, i.e. make the construction functional. So, to turn the kitchen space into a living room you need:
Equipment
In order for a building to become a kitchen, appropriate equipment must be installed in it. The main kitchen equipment is:
Cooking surface, oven, stove;
Sink for dishes;
Refrigerator for food storage;
Cooker hood;
Auxiliary devices: meat grinder, microwave, mixer, double boiler, other items.
Furniture selection and zoning
The choice of furniture will depend on the type of building under consideration. For open structures, objects without a soft finish that absorbs moisture are suitable. Use chairs, benches, a table made of wood or plastic. There are no restrictions for enclosed spaces.A soft dining set, a sofa for relaxing will look great here.
If the kitchen and dining room are not separated by a partition, they often perform zoning of the room. To do this, you can make the floor from different building materials, paint the walls with two colors, equip the podium. You can also apply a screen, furniture. Often use a bar, like those that are installed in the cafe. She perfectly divides the room into a working space and a recreation area.
Lighting
Lighting up the space correctly is very important. If the room is small, attached to the house or cottage, then quite a few lamps and street lighting of the residential building itself will be enough. For large buildings, whether it is a frame kitchen or a closed type building, one lamp or a central chandelier is indispensable. The availability of:
General lighting. It is located in the center of the room or above the table for eating. Standard, flat chandeliers are used;
Highlights of the working area. The place where they knead the dough, cut meat products, peel potatoes, it is necessary to additionally equip quite bright lamps. They are placed at the bottom of the wall cabinets, in the form of LED strips, or floor lamps are installed;
Highlights of the dining area. First of all, the location of the table relative to the window is taken into account. It does not require too bright light. Enough wall sconces, lamps with adjustable suspension.
In addition to these types, you can install decorative lighting, it is intended solely for interior decoration.
Gardening - selection and planting of plants
The object will look more impressive if it is landscaped. For this purpose it is best to use climbing plants. It is necessary that they have an attractive appearance, exude a good aroma, wander along the walls, creating additional comfort, protection from sunlight. Consider the options for the most suitable plants for summer cuisine:
Wild grapes;
Wisteria (Wisteria);
Ampelic varieties of strawberries;
Clematis (clematis);
Hop;
Schizandra.
Around you can plant perennial flowers, shrubs, dwarf trees. For each style, a characteristic set of vegetation is selected.
Conclusion
Build a summer kitchen with your own hands on your own plot, a cottage for everyone. Difficulty may arise when conducting natural gas, but everything is solved. Depending on the desire, available funds, both an open and a closed structure can be erected. To give food a natural natural aroma, an oven, tandoor, barbecue are installed, observing all safety rules. Being in such a room is comfortable, pleasant.
Building their own housing, each person strives to make it as convenient and comfortable as possible. It doesn’t matter if the interior is decorated in the same style or not. The main thing is for the family to feel comfortable. Any room in the house has its own special purpose, however, the kitchen was and remains a place for storing the hearth.
In a private house, a country house, provide a place where they store food, kitchen utensils, wash dishes, cook food. You can’t do without a kitchen. But in the summer, when the heat comes, the time of spins comes, it is unbearably in the house. It is much more pleasant to spend time in the fresh air, to carry out their activities under a canopy in a purged building. Understanding this situation, weighing the pros and cons, many owners build summer kitchens on their site.
