Kitchen trends in 2024

//

Boho style elements interspersed with minimalist style elements. A bold combination of intense pink and copper with natural wood, stone and floral accents. Less is more, but sometimes a bit of splendor will not flaw here – this is the kitchen trends for 2024 in a nutshell.

Even the coziest interior needs to be changed from time to time. It does not have to be a complete change at once, just one detail is enough to refresh a room and enliven it. A modern kitchen is basically one that follows trends, deriving the best from them, boldly incorporating new elements into the current style, often creating a completely new quality.

What are kitchen trends for 2024?

Looking at the current trends, it is not difficult to get the impression that fashionable kitchens in 2024 draw handfuls of eclecticism:

  • they do not avoid intense colors, but combine them with subdued shades;
  • characteristic for the loft style, cold metal is combined with the warmth of wood;
  • the fronts of the furniture in demand this season refer to the best practices of minimalism, while the lighting is to dazzle and delight;
  • boho, minimalism, industrialism and the love for plants characteristic of the English countryside go hand in hand, permeating each other and creating a new quality.

1. METAL ELEMENTS IN FASHIONABLE KITCHEN 2024

When looking for inspiration to refresh the kitchen, it is worth paying attention to metal – a material that, despite its weight and coldness, gives rooms lightness. It is welcome both in small items, such as a pendant lamp shade or a cutlery drainer, and as a material for furniture:

  • metal wall shelves, hung in pairs one above the other, maybe even a little asymmetrically – if you combine the metal frame with a strong solid wood countertop, you will create an ideal place in the kitchen for storing and displaying various items, for example mugs, coffee makers or flower pots;
  • metal, hanging kitchen organizers that allow you to free the worktop from accessories;
  • metal shelves on which you can display jars with homemade preserves, bottles of juice or wine.

A metal shelf may turn out to be the perfect solution for the upper furniture in the kitchen. Getting rid of cabinets with fronts in favor of an open form gives the interior lightness, which is welcome in the loft style. These types of forms fit perfectly with brick, concrete and wood.
The addition of metal elements in the line of furniture will work in any interior. We do not need a loft-style kitchen to afford this type of accessory. However, it is good if there are other elements in the interior that refer to this style. It can be a table with legs in the form of a metal frame or a lamp modeled on an industrial “spider”. If the kitchen is open, it is worth repeating this type of treatment also in the living area. Check our brilliant industrial style door and drawer handles!

2. WOOD + STONE

In addition to the already mentioned combination of wood and metal, it is worth paying attention to the combination of wood and stone. Both of these materials come from nature and, despite their contrasting features (the warmth of the wooden surface vs the coldness of the stone), they compose perfectly with each other. The stone will work in the role of:

  • a durable and effective kitchen countertop;
  • elegant flooring;
  • a fragment of the wall above the worktop or on the border of the kitchen zone and the living room.

When planning to refresh the kitchen space, it is worth remembering that the latest trends in the kitchen also include decorative elements such as:

3. MARBLE in kitchen trends for 2024

Marble – not only kitchen for worktops but also for various kitchen accessories, including mortars, table lamps or hanging lamps (necessarily with an energy-saving LED bulb, which is a deep tribute to ecological solutions);

To achieve unforgettable luxury and a new level of style, one should realize that strongly veined marble is a key factor here. The comeback of marble is moving quickly and gaining top on all style lists. Strongly veined marble has become a synonym of luxury in the world of design. Marble is usually used in kitchens and bathrooms. It is sustainable, durable, resistant and timeless, so it is certainly a good investment.
Naturally strong veined marble are extremely valuable and very effective in the background of other polished surfaces, metals and woods. In the bathroom, one can use marble to create a luxurious bath, while in the kitchen one can create an impressive sink or a kitchen island.
