Here are 7 steps to consider while decorating kitchens, the source of the most beautiful meals...
Just as you act according to the decoration style that reflects your taste for living room decoration or bedroom decoration, it is important to reveal your style while decorating your kitchen. Thus, we believe you will be much more motivated to create delicious flavors blended with your love in your kitchen, which you can find yourself in, almost turning into a living space.
In this sense, we suggest you first decide how you want your kitchen to be. For example, a country style reminiscent of a cottage kitchen, an industrial style where metal materials are predominantly used, a Scandinavian kitchen decoration style embellished with minimal touches, or a retro style using aged wooden material can reflect your tastes.
Whatever style you think you are, putting this forward first and then moving on to the other steps will make the process both more practical and much more enjoyable for you. If you have determined your style for kitchen decoration, then you can move on to the next step.
Deciding on the dominant colors in your kitchen is extremely important for fully experiencing the kitchen decoration style. Because, as many people would agree, "the color is what makes the kitchen stand out.” In this direction, if you want your kitchen to appear brighter, you can opt for pastel colors, or if you think you have a small kitchen, you can prioritize white to make the space look larger than it is.
However, if you want your kitchen to be as elegant as it is showy, you can choose black, one of the most popular colors of recent times. On the other hand, let's not forget to mention that you don't need to use only one color in your kitchen. You can create the desired atmosphere in your kitchen by combining different color tones or even completely different colors together. At this point, it is important to emphasize that you should definitely seek harmony in color selection.
According to the Turkish home decoration style, there is usually also a dining area in kitchens. Of course, this preference, which also depends on the size of the kitchen in terms of square meters, often stems from the desire of the household to prepare and consume meals practically. Additionally, in the Turkish family structure, kitchens are seen as a pleasant area where the whole family spends time together, chats, and shares, thus necessitating a dining area.
If you also prefer to have a small dining room in your kitchen, you can easily create the desired area with a dining table and kitchen chairs that match your kitchen's style. Thus, you can have a kitchen where you can chat with your family and loved ones over tea or coffee, making meal times more enjoyable.
On the other hand, instead of choosing chairs and tables separately, it is, of course, possible to make the decoration process easier by opting for kitchen sets that bring together matching pieces. In this sense, we definitely recommend you check out Doğtaş’s Norman Kitchen Set, which blends classic and modern styles.
We recommend using your creativity to turn your kitchen into a more livable and inspiring space. In this sense, by using your imagination, we can strengthen kitchen decoration with different materials that may not even be thought of as related to the kitchen. For example, you can design one section of your kitchen walls like a blackboard. The blackboard in your kitchen can be an area where you list your shopping list or recipes, as well as a surface where your children can express their creativity in the kitchen.
Similarly, you can start vertical gardening on one of the kitchen walls. With this idea, which creates a practical environment for gardening without taking up much space, it is also possible to bring more life into your kitchen. Moreover, you can have the opportunity to grow vegetables and fruits that you will use in your meals in the garden on your wall.
Have you ever noticed how many things that take up extra space on the kitchen counter also negatively affect the appearance of your kitchen? Spice racks, napkins, jars, and more... Actually, getting rid of all these tools and equipment is not as difficult as you think. All you need to do is create small storage spaces in your cupboards and drawers and store all the items that cause clutter on the counter in these areas.
There are very useful storage solutions available for this. Moreover, with storage solutions that you can find in almost any size you need, it is possible to take a small but very effective step for kitchen decoration by organizing your items. Once you organize the items, we are sure you will be amazed at the actual size of usable space in your kitchen.

Kitchen cabinets, which are the showcase of your kitchen, actually come forth as the most important parts of kitchen decoration, besides being functional cabinets. The color, material, cabinet handles, and even the shelves of the cabinets become important details that will help you create the elegance you want in your kitchen.
With the kitchen cabinets and shelves you will decorate in accordance with your kitchen style, which we emphasized in the first point, you can achieve functional elegance and enhance your decor taste a little more. In this direction, we recommend you to evaluate Doğtaş's accessory options.
Additionally, by investing in style and harmony in products whose main function is to illuminate the environment, you can make your kitchen decoration much more interesting.
