Top 5 Kitchen Trends

Our kitchens are usually in the top 3 places we love in our homes. It’s not just about the food, but the mix of ideas that you can incorporate to make it clean, comfortable and stylish. 

Whether you’re looking to renovate your kitchen or just want to be inspired; here are a few kitchen trends for 2021 for you to consider: 

Grey Cabinets

If you’re remodeling, this is the perfect colour to choose for your kitchen to contrast brighter hues on your floor or fabrics, create textured variations in your kitchen space, or create an exciting yet relaxing space. More and more homeowners are opting out of the popular all-white or wood-brown cabinet styles to try out grey painted kitchen cabinets.

Darker, colder greys work better for those living in the sunny tropics, as they benefit from the abundance of natural light. Grey in the kitchen is a perfect choice for those who love a sophisticated and fashionable kitchen.

Statement Fixtures

For those who love a minimalist type of decor you can get creative with your kitchen fixtures in matte black, matte gold, or the traditional chrome. Incorporate these colours for the faucets, finishes for the cupboard, and draw grips. By pairing the similar colour for these areas, it helps to keep a consistent style.

Quartz Countertops

With white kitchens being a mainstay in decor, quartz goes perfectly in accentuating a full white space. Quartz has become popular for its natural looking and sophisticated appearance along with its durability. Quartz is non-porous and so does not require constant resealing, which allows for less maintenance in comparison to other stones. 

Those seeking a bit more character in their countertops can use quartz with smooth and silk-like veins. For an even more seamless kitchen design, you can have your countertop and backsplash in the same colour or design to create consistency.  

Wood-Look Tiles

While kitchens need to have durable, water-friendly flooring it can be stylish too. Wood-look tiles have become a new trend in creating a captivating space to eat and entertain. Wood look tiles add a contrasting, organic element to the room and help to create a sleek look. One major benefit of using wood look tiles is that it is more cost effective than actual wooden flooring.

Air Fryer Range

If you’re charting a healthy journey, this one’s for you. Air fryers have become a kitchen favourite over the past year and have now been incorporated into stoves. Instead of cluttering your countertop, consider a range that includes an air fryer. While it creates less clutter, it also has health benefits. An air fryer oven uses little to no oil to create a flavorful and crunchy texture on foods and boasts all of the same benefits as a standalone air fryer - with some additional conveniences.
