Changing your kitchen design is one of the reasons people remodel their kitchen. There are a variety of styles to choose from, whether you prefer more traditional or modern designs, there is likely a style that fits your vision. Here are some of the most common kitchen styles to consider when remodeling:
These kitchens often feature more rustic, classic decor with a cozy feel. Elements like shiplap walls and vintage furniture typically characterize this style. This is an excellent choice for anyone looking to create a warm, inviting atmosphere in their kitchen. Other farmhouse kitchen design elements include vintage accents, natural materials, and neutral colors such as whites, creams, and tans with bright pops of color like yellow, red, or blue.
Opt for a freestanding pantry, worn china cabinet, or wardrobes converted to storage for rustic charm. Additionally, look for pieces with knotty, natural woods that will enhance the farmhouse feel. Plaid and gingham prints for your curtains, towels, and other decorative linens are also a popular choice to accent this style, along with neutral hardware in matte black, gray, or white.
Contemporary kitchens typically feature sleek lines and modern finishes. They often include stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and open shelving. These designs are perfect for those who prefer a more minimalistic look with clean lines and neutral colors. For a modern update, consider adding glass cabinetry and open shelving, as well as sleek metal fixtures and hardware.
Black and white cabinets can tie into the monochromatic color schemes of many modern kitchens. Additionally, artificial or manmade materials should also be used, such as stainless steel, glass, plastic, slate, and concrete. We also recommend you use mixed chrome hardware for cabinet knobs, slides, drawer pulls, etc., for a special touch. Mid-century modern furniture and light fixtures will also offer clean lines and simple color palettes to accent this style.
A smart appliance such as a remote-adjusting oven is another great addition to a modern-style kitchen.
If you’re looking for a unique kitchen remodeling trend for your Latrobe kitchen, industrial-style kitchens might be the perfect fit. Industrial-style kitchens feature utilitarian elements such as exposed brick walls and pipes, stainless steel appliances, and concrete countertops that make them stand out. Consider exposed brick or ductwork for an urban loft look. This kitchen style also looks great with an open concept which allows a lot of natural light and continues the factory-style feel. Light fixtures with pendant-style lightbulbs attached to the exposed beams or rafters also add a nice touch.
This type of kitchen design is great if you want to add an edgy look to your space while maintaining a modern aesthetic. Industrial-style kitchens also tend to be quite versatile, as they can easily accommodate a variety of design elements, such as rustic wood accents and modern lighting fixtures.
If you’re looking for a classic kitchen remodeling trend, French-style kitchens might be the perfect option. French-style kitchens feature traditional elements such as distressed cabinets, ornate light fixtures, and intricate tile backsplashes that give the space an Old World charm. You want also to incorporate colors that are rich and warm such as bronze shades or magentas. Set up hooks to hang your pots and pans above the island or the stovetop for a functional yet decorative touch.
We also recommend warm-toned wood for our cabinets and gold or copper hardware. Ceramic pottery, fresh-cut flowers, and trinket ornaments can add elegance and approachability to the space.
This kitchen design is great if you want to add a touch of elegance to your space while maintaining a timeless aesthetic. French-style kitchens also tend to be quite versatile, as they can easily accommodate a variety of design elements, such as antique furniture and vintage accessories.
If you’re looking for a timeless kitchen remodeling trend to choose from, traditional-style kitchens might be a perfect choice. Traditional-style kitchens feature classic elements such as white cabinets, subway tile backsplashes, and granite countertops that give the space a timeless look. Other elements, such as masonry countertops with marble, quartz, or granite, are great options. We also recommend warm woods such as cherry, birch, alder, or walnut for the cabinets and cabinet molding, and we can even incorporate it into corbels or appliques. Combined, all of these elements can add a special touch to your kitchen remodeling project in Latrobe.
This type of kitchen design is great if you want to add a homey feel to your space while maintaining an elegant aesthetic. Add in family photos, cookie jars, wine racks, and other homey items to make the space warm and comfortable. Traditional-style kitchens also tend to be quite versatile, as they can easily accommodate a variety of design elements, such as wood accents and modern appliances.
