"Revamp Your Kitchen with Bold Colors, Statement Lighting, and Sustainability"
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and with each passing year, new design trends emerge to keep the space fresh and up-to-date. As a design and build company, we are always on the lookout for the latest trends in kitchen design. Here are our top kitchen design trends for 2023:
Bold Dark Colors
While white kitchens have long been popular, and we still love them! We are also seeing a shift to be a growing trend towards darker, more daring color palettes in kitchen design. Homeowners are now opting for navy blue, forest green, and deep shades of charcoal for their cabinetry, backsplashes, and appliances, adding a touch of sophistication and elegance to their homes. The use of bold colors in the kitchen creates a dramatic and eye-catching effect that can transform the entire space. So, if you're looking to revamp your kitchen, consider embracing the trend of dark, bold color choices to create a stunning and unique look.

Mixing Materials
Mixing materials is a trend that is set to take the kitchen design world by storm in 2023. By combining different types of wood, such as walnut and oak, or by pairing wood with metal, like brass and stainless steel, kitchens can achieve a one-of-a-kind, eclectic appearance. This approach to kitchen design allows for a level of creativity and personalization that is unmatched by traditional design methods. With the use of mixed materials, kitchens can become a reflection of the homeowner's unique style and taste. Below is an example of this idea from Jean Stoffer Interior Design.

Sustainable Materials
As we move towards a more sustainable future, it's exciting to see how this trend is influencing even the smallest details of our homes. In particular, kitchen design is undergoing a transformation as more and more homeowners opt for sustainable materials. Bamboo flooring and recycled glass countertops are just a few examples of the innovative and eco-friendly options that are now available. By choosing these materials, we can create beautiful and functional spaces that are also kinder to the planet. It's an exciting time for sustainable design, and we can't wait to see what the future holds.

Statement Lighting
When it comes to kitchen design, lighting fixtures are often overlooked but they can truly make a statement. In the upcoming year of 2023, we are expecting to see a surge in unique and eye-catching lighting fixtures such as sculptural pendant lights and oversized chandeliers. These fixtures will not only brighten up a space but also serve as a focal point and add personality to any kitchen.
