HomeTriangle Guides: Ways Hide Your Gas Cylinder And Do it Beautifully!
Here are creative ways to hide your ugly red cylinders in a way which looks visually pleasing.
Indian homes often have red, ugly gas cylinders, which can detract from beautiful and expensive kitchen decor and make the space unattractive.
Almost every Indian home has a gas cylinder(unless you have piped gas), and usually, the common Indian cylinder is red, made of metal, and supremely ugly! If you have a gas cylinder lying in the open in your kitchen, it not only looks unattractive but also takes away from your beautiful (not to mention expensive) kitchen decor. Here are 7 innovative ways to hide your gas cylinder and make it blend in beautifully!
Nautical Wrap
Get a cheap and cheerful fabric in a nautical stripe and make this easy cylinder cover, smart and perfect, recommended for all white kitchens.
Contemporary Wood
Complement your contemporary decor in the kitchen with this simple, lift-up cover made of wood or ply. Hire a carpenter to knock this design together, and you can use the top of the cover as additional counter space.
Or have one custom-made with a removable lid as shown above.
Move Your Cylinder Outdoors
If you have the space (a kitchen garden or sit out near the kitchen) it may be possible for you to move the gas cylinder outdoors place it in a purpose-made wood chest with a removable front and opening lid, and then put in concealed piping to connect it to your stove. It is always a good idea to consult your interior contractor and designer as well as another expert from the gas agency on the safety and feasibility of gas piping through your home.
Crafty And Talented?
If you are talented with a brush and love to decorate everything, you can use your brush to create fresh art for every cylinder that enters your home! We recommend you paint on paper or canvas and paste it on the cylinder and do not paint directly on the cylinder as it will be returned in due course to be refilled.
Cylinder In The Cabinet
You can even place the cylinder in a concealed slide-out or tilt out in your kitchen island so that the space around the stove can be used for everyday use pots and pans storage within easy reach.
