Trends in kitchen design are constantly evolving, blending style with functionality to fit modern living. This year, we’re seeing a fascinating mix of sustainable choices, bold designs, and high-tech touches that redefine what a kitchen can be. As one of the UK’s leading kitchen suppliers, we’re excited to share some top trends.
Here’s what’s hot in bespoke kitchens and how you can bring these trends to your customers.
Sustainable Materials and Eco-Friendly Design
Sustainability is a priority for homeowners now more than ever. From recycled wood to sustainable laminates, customers are choosing materials that are both stylish and kinder to the planet. These choices are durable, timeless, and right on trend for the environmentally conscious.
Bold Colours and Contrasting Finishes
Say goodbye to all-white kitchens! Bold colours like deep greens, blues, and terracottas add warmth and character to kitchens. We’re also seeing a rise in matte and textured finishes, which bring depth to cabinetry. This mix of bold colour and texture lets kitchen designs make a statement without overwhelming the space.
Innovative Storage Solutions
Storage is always key, from hidden pantries to custom-fit drawers and appliance garages, customers want storage that fits their unique needs. These solutions keep everything organised, add extra functionality, and help create a sleek, clutter-free look.
Smart Kitchens with Connected Features
Technology is making its way into kitchens, and people love the convenience it brings. Smart ovens, touchless taps, and app-controlled lighting are becoming kitchen must-haves, making cooking easier and adding a bit of luxury. For retailers, offering smart kitchen options is a great way to attract tech-savvy customers.
Open Shelving and Display Spaces
Open shelving is on-trend for this year, as it allows homeowners to showcase their favourite dishware, glassware, and décor. This trend adds a relaxed, personal touch, perfect for kitchens meant for entertaining. Plus, many kitchen manufacturers now offer modular shelving options, so customers can style their space however they like.
Natural and Layered Lighting
Lighting can completely transform a kitchen, it’s all about maximising natural light and layering different types of lighting. Skylights, large windows, and even mirrors can brighten up a space, while pendant lights and under-cabinet LEDs add warmth and atmosphere. offering a variety of lighting options is essential for customers looking to create cosy, inviting spaces.
Durable, Low-Maintenance Surfaces
Kitchens need surfaces that look great and can handle everyday use. Quartz and porcelain countertops are popular this year, as they’re durable, scratch-resistant, and easy to maintain. Fingerprint-resistant finishes are also big, making it easy for busy households to keep surfaces looking fresh without constant cleaning.
Keeping up with these trends means staying ahead of customer demands in a competitive market.
