Open kitchens integrated into the living room are the order of the day. In fact, 2022 will be a trend in interior design.

It doesn’t matter if they are small or vintage, as we will see below, with these 20 photos and ideas to integrate a small kitchen into the living room, there are solutions for all spaces and styles.

An effective solution for a small kitchen that is open to the living room is to separate both rooms with a kitchen bar. In this way, both spaces are integrated into one, but both well defined. In addition, a kitchen bar is a very versatile and functional element, as well as stylish.

Instead of a bar to separate both spaces but achieve a fluid one, we can choose to lengthen the countertop in the shape of an L, as we see in the image above these lines. In this way, in addition to defining both spaces that are united, we gain storage space thanks to the drawers or holes provided by the bottom of the countertop.

In addition to the kitchen bar and the worktop, we have another solution to define a kitchen that is open to the living room: a kitchen island. In this way, the kitchen is uncluttered and the work area becomes more comfortable while separating the kitchen from the living room, while maintaining the fluidity of an open space. We can appreciate this point in the image above, or in this one that we see below these lines:

In this other example, in the kitchen above these lines, we see how, thanks to the kitchen island, the space available to install a kitchen has been maximized, while, at the same time, both spaces are effectively divided, into the same whole.

Although it is not necessary to separate the kitchen from the dining room by means of an island. As the interior designer Leanne Ford explains for Mi Casa Revista in a magnificent article where they break down 7 ideas that will be a trend this 2022 for kitchens:

“The separation between the kitchen and the dining room is already obsolete,” explains Ford. “The kitchen is becoming a very liveable place, where people hang out as well as cook.”

In other words, we can take advantage of other elements to delimit both spaces, such as the dining table, to further integrate the kitchen.

The dining table, a practically essential piece of furniture in any home, is another very effective element for defining kitchen and living room spaces. Its location allows us to masterfully separate the two environments without losing fluidity, allowing the spaces to succeed each other in an aesthetic way.

Naturally, not all floors have the same design, therefore, it will be our task to locate the dining table, if this resource seems interesting to us to divide the spaces in some way, so that the two environments that coexist on the same plane, are defined, as we see in the image above these lines, or in the one below.

In this other small kitchen open to the living room, we see how the dividing wall offers a certain visual delimitation between the kitchen and the living room, but these remain united in a fluid way thanks to the large opening of the latter and the parquet floor, which offers a continuous view of all the space they both share. The bar and the 4 stools act as a dining table.

If there is no space to put a traditional dining table, you have to look for other solutions, and in this case, the choice of a bar with 4 stools is very wise. Hospitality chairs and stools also integrate perfectly into contemporary spaces. There is no reason to be blinded by the idea of a traditional dining table, as there are solutions, and many.
