The 6 Best Kitchen Design Trends of 2021




Being at home more means that many of us, perhaps once reluctant cooks, are evolving into enthusiastic, budding chefs. After all, we can’t order takeaway every night! Having a beautiful space to conjure up all that culinary magic is an absolute must. Here are some of our choice kitchen trends of 2021.




1. Marble

Sustainable and durable, marble has been used in all aspects of architecture and interior design for centuries. Bringing an unrivalled sense of luxury and glamour, marble possesses incredible strength and an exceptional aesthetic.


Marble work surfaces and counter tops are as resilient as they are beautiful. For added drama, the stronger the vein, the better.



2. Streamline Simplicity

Clean lines, integrated appliances, and handleless designs bring a sense of order and calm to what can be a frenetic space, particularly when all those pots and pans are on the go! Simplicity and a focus on quality craftsmanship and cabinetry details are what this look is all about.




3. Pantries

Pantries are a practical storage solution that can be sensitively slotted into any kitchen scheme. A great way to organise and declutter, they make perfect sense. Allowing us to steer away from bulky wall cupboards, leaving space for much more aesthetically pleasing items such as treasured photographs or artwork. Perfect for seamless, open plan living. Old Mother Hubbard would be proud!






4. Dark Design

Nothing is more seductive than a black kitchen. Today, black is a frontrunner when it comes to choosing colour in kitchen design. Sexy and sleek, black kitchens are a bold statement that will make your cooking and entertaining space effortlessly chic.

Combine with lighter, natural materials like woods and stones to break up the tone should you wish to do so.



5. Green Cabinetry


After reading Architectural Digest's feature on Dakota Johnson's stunning mid-century residence, particularly highlighting the exquisite small kitchen filled with unique items and painted in Benjamin Moore's 'Alligator Alley', it is evident that green has become a prominent color choice, replacing dark blue tones as a significant trend for kitchens in 2021.

To ensure a tasteful outcome, it is crucial to be meticulous in selecting the shade of green. Opt for forest or olive tones for a timeless appeal, or choose sage for a more subtle and elegant look.




Metallics


Exploring new possibilities in kitchen design, metallic finishes can add a captivating touch to any culinary area. Combining metallics with natural materials will give a radiant look to your kitchen. If you're hesitant to fully commit to metallic units, consider adding playful touches with sinks, taps, and other accents. Gold, in particular, can provide a subtle yet striking metallic sheen.




Embracing these trends can transform your kitchen into a modern haven that reflects the latest in design innovation while meeting the practical needs of everyday living. So, whether you're planning a complete remodel or a simple update, these trends are sure to inspire and elevate your culinary space.
