Bold Glass Backsplashes

Bold backsplashes have always been a great way to make a statement in the kitchen and glass ones are really making a big appearance in 2020. They are a great way to spice up your kitchen by introducing a splash of colour or different texture. Glass splashbacks are durable, easy to clean, and create a sense of elegance.

best Kitchen Design Trends for 2020

Minimalistic

Minimalism is one of the hottest trends right now, it’s all about down-sizing and decluttering, with roots in buddhism. Minimalism has hit the kitchens too, and it’s making a big splash! When it comes to kitchen styling-minimal design means minimal fuss. The style features handleless drawers and pull-out pantries, with lots of bright and light colours, giving the impression of lots of space and leaving you plenty of room to move. This is a sleek style that can be adapted to every home, and complements all home designs- just create space and hide your appliances! Have a look at our Minimalistic Style Kitchens to see how great they can look- and imagine one in your own home!

Natural textures and colours

We’re really seeing this one skyrocket in 2020- natural textures and colours. Think cosy and warm interior with an apple pie baking in the oven. Natural lighting and a neutral colour palette make this work, and it is easy to make your new kitchen the heart and soul of your home. To modernise this look add whites to your cabinets or benchtops as this will accent the neutral tones, creating a warm and welcoming feel. Neutral colours never go out of style, use them to keep your kitchen trendy for a long time, and always be your favourite room in the house!

Curved Benchtops

Curved benchtops are a new, slightly strange trend, but they’re a beautiful display of practicality and workmanship. Done right, curved benchtops create more space and have a luxurious feel- the centerpiece of the room. Curves add contrast to a kitchen dominated by straight lines and this builds awesome and interesting visual impact. Use curved benchtops as a feature, or get really creative and use them to create smooth transitions towards other rooms and really get the most from your kitchen space.
