Kitchen Décor Trends

A few years ago, you only saw the kitchen as a place where you prepared meals and dirty dishes piled in the sink. Present-day, kitchens are now a focal point of your home, so it’s essential to keep your kitchen looking as tidy and trendy as possible. If you rarely clean your kitchen and your appliances are decades old, your guests will be the first to notice. 

Advancements in technology and ever-changing social dynamics have contributed extensively to the popularity of the modern-day kitchen. We now build modern houses with open-concept spaces in mind, and kitchens are the star because it’s where your family gets together after a long day to enjoy a meal. Don’t invite your friends over to a kitchen that was last in style ten years ago.

Here are the latest kitchen décor techniques to keep your kitchen both chic and functional. 

Open Concept Kitchens

Tear down those kitchen walls and embrace an open concept kitchen. You’ve probably heard of an open concept space before, but do you understand what the hype is all about? Open concepts refer to an open floor plan for your house, which is when two or more rooms in your home are joined to form a larger space by eliminating the walls that divide your rooms. This trend has grown in popularity over the past few years because open concepts provide a more relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.

Single-Level Kitchen Islands

Kitchen islands pair well with open concept kitchens, as single-level islands allow light to stream through an open space effortlessly. Counter-height islands will increase the intimacy of your kitchen while expanding valuable food preparation space. Consider going for a large kitchen island that boasts a waterfall edge so that you can tuck your stools underneath the island to maximize your kitchen’s space. 

Quartz Countertops

Say goodbye to routinely sealing and frequently scrubbing your countertops when you switch to Quartz surfaces. Quartz countertops require less maintenance while simultaneously offering a timeless appeal. Best of all, Quartz counters will make your surfaces appear shimmery all the time so that you won’t get bored of them. Moreover, Quartz pairs nicely with both light and dark colored cabinets, so they’re easy to integrate into any kitchen. 

LED Lights

The future is brighter than ever when you invest in LED lights. Years ago, LED lights gave an unfriendly appearance that was unappealing to the average homeowner. Present-day, LED lights have become a staple in modern-day kitchens because they illuminate your kitchen’s island and brighten the cooking space that’s underneath your cabinetry. New-age LED lights are also more efficient and durable than the halogen and fluorescent bulbs of years past. 

Silver Finishes

Although kitchen trends come and go, polished silver lasts forever. Switch over to authentic silver utensils, appliances, stools, cookware, and more for a luxurious accent that endures scratches and the passage of time. 

When you’re upgrading your kitchen to a new design, functionality, and aesthetics should be at the forefront of your mind. Prioritize your countertops because you prepare food on them, and they complement your kitchen’s cabinets.
