1. A plastic window.
2. Putty solution.
3. The primer.
4. Ceramic tile.
5. Polymer or cement screed.
6. Laminate or linoleum.
7. Stretch web, emulsion, plastic panels.
8. Washable wallpaper, textured plaster or plastic panels.
Operating procedure:
For starters, getting rid of everything of furniturehousehold appliances and even plumbing fixtures. Given the small size of the room, this procedure will not take much time. Also remove all trim. It is even possible to remove the door and window. It is recommended to install a plastic window.
Regardless of which design you plan to implement, it is important to align all surfaces and then strengthen them. It is best to start from the ceiling - defects often arise there, which are easily eliminated with the help of putty mortar. The primer is also important, especially if you plan to paint the ceiling.
It is recommended to cover the ceiling with a water-based emulsion or plastic panels - in this case, it will be easy to wash it from stains and stains of fat.
It's time to install a stove for cooking and plumbing equipment. As for the stove, it is worth leaving it in the same place, since permission to change the location of the gas pipe for Khrushchev is quite difficult. The process of this change is also complicated and it’s better not to take it on your own. Water supply and plumbing is more real. It is recommended to make a hidden option - wall mounting.
Next in line is wall decoration. As a material, ceramic tiles are excellent, especially for the working area of the kitchen. And since she herself is a leveling material, sophisticated technologies are not required. In other areas of the room, you can use painting or wallpaper.However, then the walls need to be brought to perfect condition, aligning them as best as possible.
Ceramic tile is clearly not suitable for the floor - despite the smoothness, good wiping and moisture resistance, dropped dishes will break instantly. It is recommended to use a polymer or cement screed. The latter will be much more economical. Laminate and linoleum will also serve as a good alternative - installation is quite simple, and the color variety can pleasantly surprise. In addition, all these materials are quite easily laundered from traces of drinks or food.

Preference should be given to simplicity and compactness, since the main goal is to accommodate everything you need, but do not get the effect of a cramped busy room. Ideal options are light colors, textiles, prints and glass furniture. All this helps to create a feeling of weightlessness, spaciousness and comfort.

But in this simplicity lies the complexity - to place everything that is necessary, and at the same time create a feeling of spaciousness is quite difficult. However, everyone can cope with a similar task.
