A great kitchen is the focal point of any home. Used for more than just cooking, kitchens are rapidly becoming the epicenter for entertaining. Keep an eye on these trends to watch for in 2019 and get ready to create your perfect kitchen.
Create a Kitchen that Dazzles
Ignore what you think your kitchen should look like. 2019 is going to be about bucking the trends with more bespoke design cropping up almost everywhere. 2018 had no shortage of interesting designs, and 2019 does not appear to be any different. You can expect a more industrial feel, brass taps and hidden storage. Without further ado, here are the trends in kitchen design to watch for in the coming year.
Storage is King
Multi-purpose spaces will reign supreme this year. Instead of more traditional butler’s pantries, storage walls will take the lead. Floor-to-ceiling storage cabinets flush with the wall, lower storage spaces, and a centralized island will round out the space. Enjoy the convenience of a large amount of storage without being seen.
Open Shelving
Poised to take the place of more traditional cabinetry, open shelving is an excellent way to display your dishes or cookware, enabling you to keep an eye on your personal inventory and display special pieces prominently. It is worthwhile to note, though, that open shelving is not a good idea for pieces you use only occasionally. The open design means they will accumulate dust. Use this concept for pieces that you use regularly.
Gold and Copper Accents
Gold, especially rose gold, and copper adds an extra element of class to your kitchen. Use these for small fixtures such as taps or door handles. They can provide a contrast of color and a bit of texture to change the vibe of your kitchen. These finishes also create a vintage, upper-class ambiance to the room without emptying your pockets.
Matte-colored Appliances
Dark matte finishes are taking over in 2019, replacing the once-popular glossy black appliances of years past. The matte finish reduces the appearance of dirt and fingerprints while offering a sleek style reminiscent of sleep, sexy supercars.
Pendant Lighting
Suspended lighting has made a comeback in kitchens recently. Consumers enjoy the visual effect that only pull-down lighting delivers, and fixtures can be matched to existing accents.
Unique Kitchen Materials
2019 is going to be all about making a statement. Incorporating stone, natural wood, and even concrete will give your kitchen a timeless look, keeping on trend without being too trendy. Pair these finishes with plants, an indoor herb garden, and minimal hardware will give you a touch of the outdoors inside, making for an almost garden-like space.
