The Key Kitchen Trends in 2023
If you're planning a new kitchen
in 2023, it's important to do a little research on kitchen design trends to
ensure you end up with one that will be the envy of all your friends and
family. Of course, there are different kitchen trends depending on what style
of kitchen you prefer, but whether your style is contemporary, modern, classic
or traditional, some key trends remain the same. "When planning a new
kitchen in 2023, key areas to consider are door design, color, texture, shape
and material."
Door design
Over the years, kitchen door
design has become more and more simple. Modern kitchens tend towards flat doors
without details. An extension of this is the move towards hands-free doors, and
this will continue into 2023 with many homeowners opting for hands-free kitchens
in Christchurch. Even with classic or traditional kitchen styles, door
designs tend to be simpler than in the past, with many designers using Shaker
style doors, even with built-in kitchens. It gives a very detailed classic
look.
What about the color?
We see that the range of colors
now available in kitchens has grown exponentially over the past year. Designers
and homeowners are getting bolder when it comes to cabinet colors, with many now
opting for subtle hues, especially in contemporary and modern designs. Subtle
shades can interfere with glossy or matte doors in a modern kitchen or even in
a warm wood finish. Of course, mixing both paint colors and wood textures is a
huge trend right now and will only gain popularity. Whitewashed kitchens are
still very popular for classic and traditional kitchen styles, but other,
bolder colors are emerging, especially mixed with softer tones. In hardwood
kitchens, oak and walnut are still as popular as ever.
Texture
Depending on the chosen kitchen
style, the texture of the kitchen finish will continue. Let's say your choice
is a contemporary kitchen, then you will have the choice between glossy or
glossy. Glossy kitchens are still very popular, but in 2023, expect more matte
finishes. Glossy kitchens are easy to clean, but are prone to footprints and
fingerprints. Matte finishes are easy to maintain, but don't show as many signs
as gloss.
Shape
What we really mean is the use of
curves or straight lines in kitchen design. Curves are most important in
classic and traditional kitchens, where smooth edges are the main trend. Curves
are also popular in modern style kitchens, while sleek, sharp lines will
continue to be in fashion for a modern look. Contemporary kitchens need sharp
lines to differentiate them from most modern kitchens, which include thin
worktops and end panels that add finishing touches.
Materials
As we all know, there has been a
big shift towards eco-friendly and recycled materials in recent years. Expect
reclaimed wood to make inroads into modern and contemporary kitchens to create
a smooth, earthy feel, especially in high-end kitchens.
When it comes to countertops,
there's a big shift toward eco-friendly materials, with quartz and recycled glass
being used to dramatic effect.
