Check out the top 3 hottest kitchen trends 2024 to include into your kitchen design scheme — we're seriously excited by some of the newest ideas we've seen
1. Warm over cool shades
There has been a definite move away from cooler colours and tones and stark neutrals for units during 2023 and this looks set to continue and grown into 2024.
The demand for a ‘warm’ kitchen ambience continues to shape interior trends in 2024, steering away from the era of grey, It’s clear that vibrant patterns, collages, soft and cosy fabrics and all that lovely dopamine dressing we are currently obsessed with will dominate design. Grey is gone and super warm tones and shades will be the new go-to — we’re talking rich burgundies, aged brass, muddy golds, warm terracotta, fresh greens and crisp teal hues, among others.
The desire for colour in the kitchen has gained momentum over the last year, We have noticed a shift in homeowners wishing to add personality to their kitchen design through bold colour and texture choices, steering away from the more traditional neutral tones.
"The allure of the dramatic dark kitchen cabinetry remains; however, we have seen homeowners steer towards warmer and brighter colours, from soft pink to fiery red tones and fresh green and blue hues, We expect to see homeowners gain more colour confidence in 2024, introducing colour throughout the kitchen, through cabinetry, worktops and even inside cupboards and pantries, creating unique elements of surprise.
While keeping an eye on current kitchen trends is valuable, opting for colours that deeply resonate with your taste is key to creating a kitchen you will love for years to come.
Earth colours, like lime wash, light yellow and pastels instead of cream and greys or just wood is a beautiful design element for 2024 Combining the light base colour of cabinets with darker and more dramatic worktops elevates the design, adding interest while keeping the space light, airy and calm, creating a romantic mood and atmosphere.
2. Kitchen curves everywhere
The word on the street is softer lines and forms within Kitchen design — the super straight and streamlined look is gone.
In 2024 we expect curves to continue to take centre stage within design from extractor canopies that double as sculptures, to backsplashes that resemble framed paintings, clients have been incorporating different shapes to elevate the character of their kitchens. Curves deliver a harmonious ambience to the hustle and bustle of the modern home and look set to thrive through 2024
This trend picks up on the more organic style of design also to be on the look out for in 2024.
We expect to see smooth finishes which extend beyond kitchen islands, infiltrating dining table bases, cabinets, seating and more. Designs in 2024 will incorporate these organic shapes, bringing unique character and balance to kitchen spaces.
3. Designing with being together in mind
While the trend of designing a social home with larger, more open kitchen diners has been around for some time now, this really will be taken to the next level in 2024. We are seeing homeowners keen that their kitchens are full of welcoming vibes and that they can easily accommodate every kind of get together, from intimate family dinners to elegant evening soirees.
