Shake it up!
If you’re torn between going for the traditional or modern look, this trend will save you the hassle of choice because it’s fit for both! You will have no issues adding some character in your area with the farmhouse kitchen wall signs.
Shaker-style cabinets bring a sleek, simplistic, and elegant feel to your kitchen. Complete with its five-tiered drawers and double doors, this style not only allows space maximization but also gives your minimalist theme a touch of versatility.
Not to mention, this kitchen classic also costs less than raised cabinets, all the while setting the rustic vibe in the area. So go ahead and tap this trend because it’s not called Shaker style for nothing!
Rainbow rampage
It’s good to stick to a colour scheme or a theme—like black-and-white—when designing your kitchen, but who says rainbows don’t fit the criteria? Today’s trend features bright colours to make your kitchen look Poppin’!
Bold colours like bright red, emerald green, navy blue, and even mustard yellow are just some of the options you have when choosing a colour for repainting your kitchen cabinets. Apart from bringing some life to the area, colour-coding your cabinets also help with categorizing cookware and other kitchen essentials according to your preference.
With this out-of-the-box trend, your cabinets will surely be eye-catchers!
Space be with you![]()
Another showstopper, open shelves give the illusion of spaciousness in one’s kitchen. They contribute to an airy and serene atmosphere in the area while serving you convenience in the absence of cabinet doors and walls.
Unlike cabinets, these shelves can be used to display decorative items in the kitchen such as small succulent plants and even family photographs. It’s a simple addition to the kitchen that encourages a space-saving design concept.
This style is timeless; talk about a trend with long shelf life, right?
A warm and white welcome
While popping colours are sure to bring life to your kitchen, a white-on-white theme will give a more welcoming vibe to your interiors.
Do this by coupling your white cabinets with shiny white countertops to show off a light atmosphere to the area. You could always add some wall accents—frames or wall art—that will complement the single-colour motif of your kitchen.
It may look plain at first, but remember: less is more, so prep yourself for some splendid and modern kitchen makeover!
It’s all about the shine
Quartz countertops compliment your matte-finish cabinets. May it be plain or patterned with swirls, this faux-marble piece in your kitchen is sure to bring an elegant shine to your interiors and enjoy its durability and low maintenance at the same time.
This trend works well with modern and minimalistic themes, but can also be coupled with traditional hardwood cabinets. Just pick a pattern of quartz that will suit your kitchen theme and you’re all glammed up and good to go!
Game for Grey
The colour of neutrality, and a grey theme give your kitchen a cool and sophisticated look whether you have wooden cabinets or aluminium silver doors. It’s not the usual pick when it comes to kitchen design, but today’s youth has made it a trend to use grey as a motif for interior design.
It gives a modern or even futuristic vibe to the area, even without the modern and expensive kitchen appliances. Pleasing to the eyes, and easy on the budget!
When it comes to remodelling kitchen interiors, know that the design process always starts with you! Just draft an idea or a theme that gives the vibe you’re aiming for, and then get working. After all, designing is a bit like cooking—it requires creativity and innovation to come up with the best product!
