Makeovers and renovations involve more than just sweat and sledgehammers. When it comes to designing your dream kitchen, there are endless considerations involving products, colors, styles and more. Ensuring your kitchen remains relevant to modern standards is important, not just for personal reasons—family get togethers, entertaining and socializing—but for fiscal ones as well. Because kitchens are often considered to be the most important room in a house, they can also be the deciding factor in potential home sales. Homeowners, as well as designers, renovators and flippers, must consider current industry trends when creating beautiful new kitchens that can stand the test of time.
Kitchen Trends for 2019
While planning your kitchen makeover, keep this list of trends in mind:
- Space-saving built-in appliances are a neat freak’s saving grace. Avoid bothersome handles and edges by installing built-in refrigerators, wine coolers, stoves and dishwashers that fit in seamlessly with your beautiful new cabinets. Highlight your wine collection with built-in wine refrigerators from Miele, which feature unique elements such as individual temperature zones, LED lighting and tinted glass fronts for optimal UV protection.
- Dark kitchens and matte finishes remain on the rise. Once associated with luxury and elegance, the bright, glossy surfaces of older appliances have fallen out of favor. Replace outdated appliances with contemporary, matte black ones to add classy contrast and drama to your kitchen. On top of the visual benefits, matte appliances tend to reduce the appearance of smudges, fingerprints and stains—meaning your kitchen stays cleaner, longer.
- Decorate open kitchens with stunning pendant lighting. Recessed lighting is still very useful for streamlined appearances, but pendant lights can become your kitchen’s jewelry, so to say. Unique statement pieces that become the focal point of your home’s most important room—an anchor point that friends and family will gather around, talk about and be inspired by. Elegant pieces from Park Harbor, available exclusively from Ferguson.
