The Best of 2015: Kitchen Trends

I can’t help but swoon every time I see a beautifully designed kitchen or have the pleasure of working on a transformation with a client!  Kitchens serve so many roles as it becomes the gathering place for both family and guests, a homework destination, or when cooking a fresh daring recipe for your family.  Here’s a highlight of a few of our selections we saw dominating kitchen styles and renovations this year!

Natural Stone Backsplashes
Using natural stone materials like granite, marble, and slate create a seamless transition from your countertop and come in a variety of colors and sheens with tons of movement.

Via With A Southern Twist

Stainless Steel
Perfect for traditional and contemporary kitchens alike, stainless finishes are dramatic and create a large sense of space with its high reflectivity.  And I love how easy it is to clean and keep up.

Via Apartment Therapy

Color Accents
I have loved seeing all the deep warm tones of yellow, blues, and daring reds in kitchen color palettes this year.  Again, we are seeing the influence of brown undertones!

Via The Lettered Cottage

Transitional Style
This style is defined by a classic-contemporary look and this year, the style has been dominated by both dramatic color palettes and stunning and crisp white kitchens with a splash of Carrera marble.
