If you have been planning for a kitchen revamp and you think this is the perfect time to take the plunge, some of these trendy updates can bring your kitchen into the 21st century. From celebrating the timeless classics to the glory of warm metallic hues, here is the line-up of the kitchen design trends set to rule in 2015 and in the next few years to come:
Black is the New Elegant
Last decade, white kitchens are the big thing because the “colour” accentuates hues and makes the space brighter. Over the past few years, though, homeowners started moving towards the other end of the colour spectrum. Gray took over, and in 2015, the trend went a step further with black.
According to the experts at Goettling Interior Design, black makes a strong, sleek statement, and it brings an air of sophistication to the kitchen. If you want it, paint the kitchen black or use it to highlight details and anchor a kitchen draped in cool neutrals.
Furniture-Style Design
Furniture-style kitchen design marks another step in the evolution of the kitchen as the heart of the home. The trend celebrates the different elements of the kitchen as pieces of furniture—not just workstations. It allows people to bring their own welcoming, personal touch to the space.
A great way to incorporate the idea is through an island. Raise it on legs and include contrasting tops, sides, as well as some intricate panelling.
Metallic Accents and Fixtures
Stainless steel, chrome, and silver are classics for the kitchen, but in the next few years, warmer metals like copper, bronze, gold, and even brass will have their moment to shine. This trend has made a significant impact—both in the world of fashion and interior design—and it will likely to continue its path all through 2015 and the next few years.
The finish and the texture of “metallics” provide a great accent to most palette choices. It also brings a dash of luxury without going over the top.
