High-End Materials Are Still the Lodestar in Kitchen Design
Modern high-end kitchens still believe that quality materials are the most vital piece of the puzzle when designing a top-tier kitchen.
Premium materials like natural stone, quartz, and high-end wood finishes are among the trendiest items in kitchens these days. Countertops have come a long way since the bright green and orange granite tops of the 1970s. Your grandmother would still be proud of them, though. Cabinets have also become a focal point in kitchen design, allowing at-home chefs to have a beautiful wood finish with plenty of storage space.
We can’t ignore the trend of using sustainable kitchen materials too. With younger generations being more environmentally conscious, reusable materials make homeowners feel like they are creating a positive impact without wasting natural resources.
Smart Kitchen Technology is Changing the Game
Gone are the days of the egg timer. Say hello to smart home devices like those from Amazon, Google, and Apple. These devices are making cooking easier, quicker, and more technologically advanced. In the past decade, appliances have gained access to Wi-Fi and become part of the smart-connected home.
Many luxury refrigerators have built-in tablets and cameras to tell you when the milk is getting low. Your dishwasher can now send a notification to your phone to tell you when the job is done. Your sink can even use Amazon or Google to measure out a cup of water with scientific precision.
Whatever your needs, internet technology can now fully integrate with the kitchen to make cooking more enjoyable.
Customizable Cabinetry is More Than Just More Storage
Of the many unique kitchen design features, cabinets remain the bedrock of a solidly designed cooking space. These days, the trends have moved more toward bespoke, custom cabinetry to maximize space and functionality.
These custom pieces can be crafted to create hidden pantries, pull-out shelving to better contain pots and pans, and drawer organizers that can ideally separate your silverware.
Of course, the styles are different these days, too. Sleek, minimalist designs can create a clean and sophisticated look. You can also go for a more classic, traditional look with dark woods that help set the mood for your kitchen.
Don’t Forget the Importance of Lighting!
Kitchen lighting can make a statement about your kitchen's overall use. It’s not about changing out the fluorescent light tubes above your sink anymore. Lighting is now a focal point in luxury kitchen design.
Oversized pendant lights and chandeliers can create an aura of functionality and decadence.
Under-cabinet lighting has also become a valuable part of the design, allowing you to see every part of your kitchen baked in light.
