Keeping up with the Kitchens!
Looking to update your Kitchen? Perhaps you’d love a fashionable kitchen island, statement splash back or a whole new colour scheme. Perhaps you are only after some inspiration? If so, you have come to the right place.
Be inspired to make the bold style choices for your home, with a look at the latest trends in Kitchen design.
Clever Compact Design
A compact space does not have to mean letting go of your dream kitchen, it is to seize the ideology that less is more! To utilize the space, it is key to have your layout and storage strategically thought out to maximize every spare inch of your kitchen. The best kitchens benefit from minimal clutter and maximum efficiency.
Ben Burbidge, managing director at Kitchen Makers while speaking to Ideal Home UK mentions, “Don’t be afraid to include an island or breakfast bar but try not to make the overall dimensions too big as it may restrict movement around the kitchen. Opting for an open or floating island will keep all areas accessible and provide additional seating opportunities. The area under the island’s worktop can offer ample space for storage and kitchen.”
Statement Red
In a kitchen the colours can be a game changer to the over all look and feel of the place and there are so many ways to add the warm tones of red to your space such as accent pieces, work tops, cabinets, statement walls, splash backs etc.
Kitchen is the heart of any home, it is important to make our kitchens feel like a space we take comfort in, as we spend so much time here. To create this environment, we look for rich warming tones, such as of red, to enrich the senses and create atmosphere. You can choose to go subtle or bold, but if you decide to make an impact with colour, nothing will add warmth and character as instantly as a red kitchen.
Dark Surfaces
Dark isn’t the first theme that comes to mind when designing a kitchen. Stereotypical assumptions are of white and bright kitchens, matched by light wood the colour of breakfast pancakes. All divulging in shades of black, navy, or dark brown, they add what other kitchens cannot – a seductive allure that says sleekness and sophistication at the same time.
Simply Structured
The trend for streamline kitchens is set to reach new heights of popularity. This less-is-more minimalist approach creates a calming space with clean sweeping lines. This contemporary look is easy to achieve, with practicality being key.
To achieve this minimalistic look, it is essential to include integrated appliances and hidden storage so that the kitchen comes together smooth and aesthetically pleasing.
You can update your existing kitchen with clever storage solutions to clear worktops.
Traditionally Modern
While traditional kitchens are going to stay eternally in style it is never too late to add a modern twist to your traditional design either by going for complementary contemporary colours to your space or accessorizing your kitchen with eccentric pieces.
The traditional style kitchen is dynamic to work with and by adding these small modern elements you can have the best of both worlds.
