10 special American interiors
The household garbage chopper, 2 shower in the bathroom, ice maker and other appliances are optional little things that make Americans much more comfortable at home.
Edition The Village told about comfortable objects and interior elements that Americans consider useful and have, practically, in every home. What will be discussed is not necessarily found in every American home, but it is commonplace here.
Kitchen
Deep sink for dishes
American shells are three times deeper and three times wider. There you can at once fit all the dishes after the feast, without placing it on all free surfaces.
At the same time, it is not very convenient to wash ceramic dishes, but there are dishwashers for it.
Chopper in the sink
The meaning of the shredder is that 60% of household garbage can not be thrown into a bucket, but crushed in a sink and flushed down the drain. Leftovers from the plates, potato peelings, shrimps forgotten in the evening, even chicken bones are crushed into powder and allow you to almost forget that the garbage bag can leak. Not very suitable for country houses with septic tanks, but still incredibly convenient.
Storeroom for kitchen appliances
In the house of Americans, as a rule, a small room without a door is fenced off (6 – 7 meters), where they make up all the equipment and store canned goods, pasta, cereals and even freezer in the same place. As a result, all their equipment is in easy access.
Often, of course, there are islands in the middle of the kitchen (kitchen island).
Shower
2 showers in one cabin and a bench in the shower are a very convenient solution. Benches can be separate, made of teak wood or larch, or can be part of a wall, made of the same tiles. These are not benches, like in hammams, but 35x35 ledges.
Bedroom
Blanket of sheets and plaid
There is no extra comfort here, just made the bed looks nicer, if instead of a duvet cover to use a sheet, to lay a blanket on top so that they both do not reach the pillows. But they put the pillows in the 3-4 layer not only for beauty, but to lie down in the clothes on some pillows during the day, and sleep on other clean ones.
Different bedside tables near the bed
On the one hand, who said that the tables must be the same? And on the other - why do they do different?
After what you see, you will no longer be able to calmly look at the usual combination, where everything in the same style and nightstands look alike, like the 2 of the left boot.
Living room
Fitted wardrobes or shelves
Only in American apartments - and then in cheap - there are separate cabinets. Built-in closet and cheaper, and looks better.
Directional light with brightness control
Americans love spotlights, which shine not directly below them, but on bookshelves or posters.
Little things
Party Supplies
Americans are used to congratulating not only their family, but also their neighbors on graduating from school, giving birth to children, and relocating. You probably know about decorating houses for Halloween and Independence Day, but you could hardly hear about decorating houses for the City Day.
In supermarkets there are large departments with balls, flags and wreaths on the door for every occasion. As a result, the holidays are very ambitious, no budget of the city is enough to decorate it as the citizens themselves will do.
In addition, you can often find large beverage dispensers, whole ice cups (which hold beer or soda cans), 36 hot dog packaging and, of course, barbeque grills as wide as the kitchen table. Because leaving the house even for half an hour and not making friends with anyone - this is a real challenge!
