Here are some of the hottest design trends for kitchens in 2019 that can give you a good starting place for your own kitchen redesign!
Mixing Metals for Kitchen Countertops & Sinks
Mixing copper and brass with black and pewter is a hot design trend in modern kitchens. Brass may no longer be the favorite color like it was last year, but it is still found in many kitchens, as long as it is tempered by other metals mixed with it.
As you consider your kitchen remodel, consider where you can use a variety of metal finishes.
Making the Sink a Focal Point
Sinks are an important functional part of your kitchen, but in 2019 they are also becoming a focal point. Sinks are no longer simply porcelain or stainless steel. You may see sandstone, granite, and even copper! As you shop for the features of your kitchen remodel, put your sink at the top of the list for things to choose. You just might want to build the entire look around it!
Going Dark
A full kitchen remodel usually means new counters and new cabinetry. In 2019, expect these to be darker tones, rather than light tones. This is a new idea, where in past years the trends involved matching dark cabinets with light countertops, or vice versa. Consider dark stone counters and darker wood tones for cabinetry for a unified and classic kitchen design.
Adding Storage Walls
If you have an extra wall in your kitchen, consider turning it into a storage wall. A floor-to-ceiling network of custom cabinets can turn your wall into something that is both attractive and functional. As an added bonus, it will give you a place where you can (finally) put away all of those unsightly appliances that you need close at hand but want off of your countertops.
Embracing Handmade Tile
Backsplashes aren’t going away, but in 2019 you can expect them to be made from organic stone or handmade tile, rather than the factory-cut options. This will give your kitchen design some character, so be sure to talk to your remodeling contractors about how you can capture this look so they fit right in with your kitchen countertops and appliances!
Installing Some Tech
If you haven’t already done so, 2019 is the time to add some tech to your kitchen. This can be simple, like USB charging ports, or complex, like a “smart” fridge. You can even install a “smart” light switch or a motion-sensing light switch to make your kitchen a little more high tech.
