When you first sit down to redesign your kitchen it can be a daunting task. After all, there are just so many options to choose from. Whether it’s your kitchen countertops and splashbacks, or your replacement kitchen doors and drawer fronts, there’s often a bewildering amount of choice. With trends in design changing so quickly, you can never be sure whether your kitchen will still be looking fashionable in a couple of months or years.
Or can you? There are certain kitchen design trends that remain timeless. These are just a few of them that we can recommend you try:
Neutral Colours
Neutral colours are always a good choice when designing your kitchen to have a timeless look. By keeping the key surfaces of your kitchen (we’re talking cabinet doors, work units, countertops, and drawer fronts for the most part) in neutral tones, you give yourself a blank canvas to work on. It’s easier to add a splash of colour by choosing bright and vibrant appliances or painting a focal wall than it is to replace the main surfaces every time you need a change in style. For these parts of the kitchen, stick to grey, white, and cashmere colours, and you won’t go far wrong.
Natural Materials
While certain materials might become fashionable for a year or two, they rarely last forever. The current trend for glass and metal in the modern kitchen, for instance, might be long forgotten within a couple of years – who knows? Natural materials, such as wood and natural stone are evergreen. Whether we’re talking granite and marble countertops, or beech, oak, and pine cabinets, these materials always look good. For a more cost-effective solution, painted ivory cabinet doors or raised wood-effect veneers can offer the same style to a kitchen, at a fraction of the price.
Shaker Style Cabinets
Shaker style cabinet doors have been a staple of British kitchens for more than a hundred years and we see no reason that they won’t continue to be so for the next hundred years too. They boast a simple design, featuring a slightly recessed front panel, which lets them fit in with any kitchen. You can get models that match the whites and greys of your neutral kitchen, or the wooden aesthetic of your natural kitchen. Whatever your overall theme, you’re sure to find something that suits.
