Top 10 Kitchen Trends in 2021

We dare dark colors for 2021
If white has occupied a prominent place in recent years when we rethought the color of the walls, this year, it is giving way to darker tones. It’s easy to believe that dark colors make rooms look smaller, but this feeling also means that they are enveloping and provide a comfortable ambience.
How to integrate it: choose a neutral color that you like, which will be a good match with your counters and your appliances.

Luxury accessories for an elegant kitchen
Luxury is in the details as the saying goes, utility accessories deserve to be put forward, especially if chosen with care. This trend is ideal for those who want to quickly transform a classic kitchen into a kitchen that looks! We love the golden handles or the hanging lights in geometric shapes. For those who have the luxury of having a kitchen island, we can dare to use high legged stools, cushioned with velvet or with a patterned fabric!
How to integrate it: be consistent with the style of your kitchen and the rest of your accessories. While it is good to be daring, one should not saturate the decoration with too much eclecticism either.
-
Striking marble for your surfaces
It is a sure bet when you want to have a timeless kitchen that will also keep a foot in the current trends. While some people do not dare use marble for their countertops because it is recognized as an easily damaged material, when it is adequately protected with sealant it will remain as new no matter what happens to it!.
How to integrate it: don’t stop at the counters, use it for your island or as a backsplash! This arrangement will bring harmony to your decor.

A preparation kitchen for exquisite dishes
Why not treat yourself to some space? When it will be possible to entertain at home, a service kitchen is a dream 
comes true for all those who devote themselves to culinary pleasures. A service kitchen is a small room that can be used as additional storage or extra space to prepare a laborious meal or even as a middle ground between your kitchen and the dining room where you can add the finishing touches to your meals.
How to fit it in: use vacant space to convert it to service kitchen, it doesn’t need to be very big, small space can easily

The return of the traditional style
In recent times, there has been a return of the traditional style. Having given way in recent years to modern and immaculate white kitchens, this style offers a warmer atmosphere. As the kitchen is defined even more as the centerpiece of the house in 2021, we are looking for an environment that is as functional as it is welcoming. In this style, it’s the details that are in the spotlight! Fluted glass (see below), worked handles, glass cabinets, crockery displays, etc.
How to integrate it: to achieve this style, we choose shaker style cabinets and we adorn them with handles in brass colors. We often see traditional kitchens with green or blue cabinets, otherwise we keep neutral tones like cream, white or pale gray. The traditional style pairs beautifully with the white marble.
-
Natural materials in the spotlight
The quality of the materials is undoubtedly one of the focal points of the new kitchen trends. The whole kitchen adopts a more minimalist style in order to highlight the noble materials selected. We choose wood, marble, quartz, in short any material reminiscent of nature. On the ceramic side, matte finishes are also popular. The patterns are discreet. We also see appearing very lustrous ceramics, but which have a shape marked with irregular lines.
How to integrate it: we make sure to choose a finish that will not be too polished, but rather mat. We give way to marbles with very prominent veins or terrazzo with large pieces, all in warm tones..
-
A backsplash in your image
Having a backsplash to your liking is essential to be satisfied with the design of your kitchen! Since a backsplash is a finishing touch where you can let your creativity run wild. Multiple materials can be used to complete the look: colorful ceramic, glass tiles that reflect light or stone. In addition to the material used, you can also enjoy the pattern of the tiles: hexagon, arabesque or strung one after the other.
How to integrate it: it’s up to you! A backsplash can blend perfectly with the rest of your kitchen, as it can be used as a funky decorative element!

The larger-than-life pantry
Do you have a lot of space in your kitchen? This trend is for you! We expand the pantry and organize it so that everything is within easy reach. No more bending over to try to find the bag of flour in the back of the dark cabinet! In a pantry -style pantry, everything has its place. We are thinking of installing a coffee station and a toast corner, we hide as many small appliances as possible in order to leave the rest of the kitchen unobstructed.
How to integrate it: carefully assess the layout of your kitchen. A pantry like this takes up a lot of space, but it allows you to save it elsewhere! No more bulky small appliances that encroach on your entire worktop! Provide electrical outlets and dedicated spaces for your coffee machine, toaster or Vitamix in your future pantry. Don’t forget to include lighting.

Hoods are carefully concealed
What if your ventilation hood becomes the centerpiece of your kitchen? When we think of a hood, we don’t necessarily think of a designer accessory, but who says that it cannot become a key element in your kitchen decor? Every corner of your kitchen deserves to be decorated with care. You can paint it in tones that blend perfectly with the rest of your kitchen or lay down wooden slats to hide its structure.
How to integrate it: think of safe materials that will not prevent the hood from remaining functional, for the rest, choose a style that complements the rest of your kitchen.

The trend is to buy locally in 2021
When we talk about buying locally, we often think of small decorative accessories or outright food. However, it is possible to encourage local cabinet makers, or even local ceramic companies. Buying local is good for our economy and the quality is often much higher! This trend goes at number one because it’s here to stay, at least we hope so. In addition, with the growing concern for the environment, the trend is to buy nature-conscious materials. If it’s in good condition, you can even salvage the old kitchen rather than sending it to the garbage.
How to integrate it: all you have to do is find out from your contractor about the origin of the materials and the management of scrap.
