The kitchen is being heavily redefined in recent years. This is partially due to the impact the pandemic has had, as well as the current needs of modern families and homeowners. The kitchen is one of the most important and most-used spaces of the home, aside from the bathroom, and that means it needs to look amazing while also offering convenient functionality. Here are some of the kitchen design trends on the rise in 2023.
More Color
All-white and neutral-tone kitchens are going out of style in 2023 in favor of warm and saturated colors. Spaces in our homes are being redefined, and the kitchen is center-stage this year as a space that is going to see a significant overhaul in its aesthetic and desired utility. Some popular color options will be deep green and dark reddish-brown, as well as saturated purples and blues. How these colors are incorporated will vary, with some homeowners opting to go for stunning cabinetry, while others will choose warmer grays and accent it with some warm or vibrant colors.
Slab Backsplashes
Subway tile has been a hot commodity in recent years, but 2023 is all about the slab backsplash. A slab backsplash is a single piece of material that covers the entirety of the backsplash area. Some homeowners are even foregoing overhead cabinetry to really let the stone be the star of the show. Using a slab backsplash with the countertop coming right up to it can create a clean and seamless look. In addition, a slab backsplash doesn’t have grout lines, so it’s much easier to keep clean.
Large Islands
Traditional dining is starting to become a thing of the past. Modern homeowners are looking for new ways to create a kitchen that is an all-in-one space where they don’t simply prepare the meals but also eat them right there. For this purpose, large kitchen islands have started to trend. This allows everyone to sit around the island and enjoy a meal together without needing a formal dining room with a traditional dining table. Large kitchen islands are also excellent statement pieces that can be outfitted with stunning stone countertops—the marriage of aesthetic and functionality makes these the best of both worlds.
Natural Elements
Bringing natural, organic, and eco-friendly elements into home design got its start during the early stages of the pandemic, and the trend isn’t ready to slow down in 2023. We will continue to see beautiful wood and wood tones, stunning stonework, and also more homeowners choosing natural and eco-friendly decorations as well as kitchen utensils like natural wood cutting boards and bowls instead of plastic.
Smart Technology
Smart technology for the home continues to gain traction when it comes to home design, and this trend will continue in 2023. Smart appliances that are convenient and easy to use from a phone or through voice activation are making the lives of many homeowners easier. These options range from smart stoves to smart touchless faucets that save water and prevent the spread of bacteria. In addition, these options are often more energy-efficient than their traditional counterparts—they’re not just more eco-friendly, but they’re also an economical option that will pay for themselves over time.
