Modern Kitchen Design

All my clients ask me what the best trendy kitchen is to have that will last. In general, warm neutrals, lighter woods, and earth tones are growing in popularity, while stark white kitchens, grey cabinets, over-the-range microwaves, and trash compactors are on their way out.

Currently, the combination of classic and modern styles is very much in. Very cool to mix and match kitchen hardware. For example, you may choose the brass handles on the top of cabinets and stone drawers pull for the bottom cabinets. Wood stain cabinets are very much trending in 2024. Navy, black and forest green cabinets never go out of style. In today’s 2024 style of cabinets, the earthy green is very much in and goes well with any stone countertop. The shaker style cabinets are still popular and in combination with flat upper cabinets. As to the backsplash – keep it simple. Do not over-decorate your backsplash with mosaic-like stone. Keep it simple and bring colour somewhere else in the kitchen. As to the faucets, the bright nickel brings a luxury feel to any style kitchen. It provides a subtle, sophisticated lustre while effectively concealing water spots and fingerprints. The most popular hardware that would match and bring character to your kitchen is matte black, brushed nickel and warm brass. Open Shelving: Open shelving has become increasingly popular, replacing traditional upper cabinets. The most important thing for the kitchen is its layout and usage of the “dead†corners space that can be utilized in a better way.
