When you don’t have a lot of space, making a combo is always a celebrated idea. In apartment, a combo between a kitchen and a living room is surprisingly quite cozy and effective actually. True, you need to lay everything out well. However if you need some inspirations for your current apartment, you can consider stealing the following ideas.
1. Combine the Stuff
This is one of the keys to make a successful combo of kitchen and living room. Match the dining table with comfy sofa. Pair the kitchen counter with stack of books, and throw pillows to make it even more inviting. Now, you don’t want to go anywhere else.
2. Define with Pendant Lights
This kitchen combines the living room and kitchen in the most fashionable way. While the contemporary design is wonderful, they define the room by adding pendant light above the dining table. Now, it features living-dining room in their kitchen.
3. Don’t Be Shy
Just be brave when making the room. This kitchen has a proper kitchen island and the living room sofa is just next to it, so close. Still the combo looks totally good, homey, and inviting at the same time. It’s a great layout.
4. Be Efficient
Make the most of everything. This kitchen is small enough and its counter is functioned as island and dining table as well. Meanwhile the other space is used as living room that adopts the same color theme, with the same sharp and contemporary line design.
5. Modest Dining Area
This apartment still looks cozy and nice with only a modest dining table seating for two pressed on one of the walls. The kitchen is pretty much spacious enough for you to work on, while the living area seems like naturally a part of it.
6. Play with Colors
This kitchen features fresh green hue that goes well with black appliances. It keeps the wooden color as well to balance everything, and to tone down it a bit so it pairs nicely with the living room. Thus doesn’t need a lot of space too.
7. Maximize the Wall
With an open floor concept, there is no separation between the kitchen and the living room in this apartment. To make sure everything isn’t too cramped in the combo, the dining table is pressed against one wall breakfast style. Smart.
8. The Minimalist
Yes, combining both rooms may ask you to go minimal. This kitchen uses sharp layout line with only a small bar table for breakfast. However, this layout then allows the owner to add the cozy couch and arm sofa for the minimalist living room.
9. The Galley Kitchen
This kitchen doesn’t even have a dining area and it still looks totally nice and doable. The kitchen layout is totally one wall galley, and the living room is just next to it, providing an inviting and warm eating area at the same time.
10. Do It with White
This white kitchen adopts the open floor concept, combining the living room and kitchen at the same time. While everything is mostly in white, its natural accent works super well. The kitchen is pressed to the wall while the living room is facing the other side.
11. Kitchen in the Corner
This apartment set the kitchen in one corner, making it separated as well as joined to the living room in the most comfortable way. Kitchen, dining table, and living room set are all in one line, and you should notice a working counter is behind the sofa as well. Stylish!
12. Mingling Kitchen and Area Rug
This apartment features an island which also makes the entire kitchen. The living room is set around the area rug, and there is no wall or anything between the two rooms. They stand next to each other and make a natural combo.
13. Sharp and Modern
The benefit of adopting this style is that it actually takes lesser room. The kitchen here is laid right at the end of the room on only one wall with adequate storage. The rest is a modern living room, which should function as dining area too.
14. Clean Lines
If you want to make kitchen-living room combo a working one, you need to lay it out on clean line. This kitchen makes a decent example, how a one wall kitchen with a kitchen island and breakfast area will fits well with the chic contemporary living room next to it.
15. Be Modest
The other key to combine kitchen and living room is by being modest. Take this kitchen for an example. The kitchen is on one wall layout. It is in line with the living room. The dining table is inserted in the middle along with the cabinet pressed to the back of the sofa.
16. Put Everything Together
Yes, just put everything together. This apartment uses the L-shaped space on the corner as kitchen. It goes swimmingly to the living room next to it. The dining area is added on the other corner and this combo looks totally cozy.
17. Neat and Cozy
This kitchen is like a normal kitchen with things and stuffs on it. However being on one wall, this kitchen is enriched with floating shelf for storage. Meanwhile, the living room is tucked in right on one corner with a single two-seating sofa is placed right next to the dining table.
18. Bridge with Tone
The kitchen is set on one wall, and the living room is just right in front of it, bridged by the small round dining table. While the kitchen is finished in earth tones, the sofa is in grey. The dining set combines them all with all the colors, linking both rooms effectively.
19. Try Unusual Setting
The point is to make all works out well. So, you don’t have to follow the usual rule. This kitchen is a one wall design, and it stays closer to the living room couch. Meanwhile, the dining table is set rather further away, making the combination a lot more natural and flowing.
20. The Urban Style
This kitchen uses breakfast table instead to make sure the kitchen is complete but it doesn’t take too much space. The living room is set right next to it with only one couch and arm chair on the area rug.
