How To Design A Timeless Kitchen That Never Goes Out Of Style

We’re right here to sort out a broad range of styles that encapsulate the minimalist kitchen area. Leah Alexander of Beauty is Abundant loves each part of this kitchen design. Even smaller kitchens can feel spacious when you choose a color like white and don’t stray too far from it.

  • Blonde timber cabinets line the walls while windows above the graphic black benchtops lets in plenty of natural light.
  • That said, grout is being reutilized by blending it with tile and design colors to make it less aesthetically high-maintenance.
  • It’s where you cook favorite recipes, entertain guests, and serve up late-night snacks.
  • Hanging your microwave above your stove keeps things streamlined and also doubles as a stove hood.
  • We love how this all-black kitchen design incorporates matte-black cookware to match, giving this entire space a cohesive feel.

Neva Interior Design added a soft green backsplash to this small Parisian apartment kitchen, then planted a mini herb garden on a wall-mounted shelf that adds a natural element that is both decorative and practical. Lindye Galloway Studio + Shop used a palette of navy and white in this modern coastal kitchen. Light wood accents and a statement half-circle range hood give the space a crisp feel. For an infusion of color, take your inspiration from this beautiful modern kitchen featuring blue upper and lower cabinetry. A marble backsplash with swirls of blue veining—and carefully placed blue pottery—helps create a real feeling of intentional color design.

Is a white kitchen a good idea?

Although whites and neutrals will have their place, 2023 represents a new age of invigoration and exploration. The kitchen is embracing color, eclectic styles, and a sense of personal authenticity previously lacking in home design of the last five years. According to Angi, the average homeowner in America spends around $25,000 on a kitchen remodel. So if you’re feeling uninspired by your current kitchen and have the capital, there are boundless directions you can go in to revitalize the space. In an exclusive interview with House Digest, experts Cinque Cerra-Saunders, Sarah Bowen, Sara Mosele, Nikki Klugh, Melissa Fields, and Alexis Peters broke down 25 kitchen trends to expect in 2023. Cherie Barber, the owner of Renovating for Profit, says using a mix of wall cabinets and open shelving is a sure-fire way to ensure your contemporary kitchen idea is functional.

  • ‘Consider your space as divided into zones for specific functions, planning appropriate storage for each area and creating an easy sense of flow around the room.
  • A small kitchen reno project that includes less expensive tasks like painting walls, refacing cabinetry, swapping out the sink and installing a tile backsplash should run somewhere between $10,000 and $15,000 .
  • “The final design captured the period and style of the existing home, yet produced a kitchen that was functional and allowed plenty of room for new ‘modern’ appliances,” he says.
  • Visit a Farquhar Kitchens showroom and discover the perfect combination of styles and finishes for your home renovation.
  • Luxury finishes will always command attention and look particularly striking in a minimalist kitchen setting, fusing cabinetry with couture.
  • But IF you can do without all that extra wall space, it’s worth the sacrifice because it will make your room look wider and larger and lighter.

And these are just the very beginning of how you can branch out from those four white walls—or no walls if open concept is your cup of tea. Don’t overlook the opportunity to bring pre-loved furniture into a kitchen. While new cabinets that have been professionally fitted deliver practical benefits, a vintage piece can work equally well and will add a shot of unique character and style. Try a simple wall cupboard or make a bigger statement by sourcing a large piece like this old display cabinet from a department store, which now functions as storage and an alternative island. Confine yourself to black, white, and wood finishes and cabinetry for a crisp and classic feel that will never date.

Consider a Breakfast Table

The light pink is perfect with the white, adding just enough color without making a loud statement. This cabinetry adds geometric interest to a classic white kitchen, and the gold hardware ties it together with the plain fronts. A vintage-inspired pot rack over the oven is perfectly accented with copper pots in this light, neutral kitchen. Venture into uncharted territory with an unconventional color palette.
