Trending Kitchen Designs and Countertops

Using trending kitchen designs and countertops is an enjoyable way to upgrade your kitchen and create the look and feel you want from the room. These days, it’s all about custom touches and colors that create a mood.

Colorful Cabinetry

Having great cabinets that are designed for your space has long been in style. But today, they don’t have to be just white or brown. Today’s kitchen trends include dazzling colors like royal blue and pastels. You may even prefer red or a custom color that matches your countertops or decor. The color might also create an amazing visual contrast like green cabinets and terra cotta flooring.

Hidden Appliances

If you’ve ever seen a kitchen with hidden appliances, you know how smooth and integrates the design is. With this design, the cabinetry encloses many of the appliances so that you don’t see them when they aren’t in use. This creates a pulled-together look that isn’t broken up every few feet by appliances.

Open Kitchens

The open-concept home is a strong trend, and you can’t do it well without having an open kitchen. Keeping it as open to the rest of the home as possible is a good way to keep the beauty of the kitchen visible and to create a breeze atmosphere. It allows for much easier communication across the home, and it makes your kitchen look modern and inviting. Sometimes a wall or partial wall has to be removed to make this happen, but it’s well worth the remodeling to get this look and feel.

Spectacular Range Hoods

One of the biggest trends today is having a range hood that is a focal point of the room. Huge hoods that are in contrasting colors from the rest of the kitchen can make this happen. A hood that extends all the way to the ceiling is a great way to use the space.

Granite Countertops

Stone countertops have so many advantages that it’s easy to see why they’re so popular. Many types are perfect for use as a built-in cutting board. Many are heat-resistant, and they can all be polished to a luxurious shine.
