Gone are the days of stark white kitchens! With 2018 trends comes the introduction of pops of bold color and a shift in materials used in kitchens. From bold shutter colors to fun colorful furniture and appliances, kitchens designs are transforming into chic and sophisticated spaces meant to complement modern homes. Color rich materials such as copper, concrete and even granite are popping up in darker kitchen palettes to replace stainless steel appliances and white sinks. As a central meeting place in the house, a kitchen should promote high energy and togetherness. A pop of color or bold statement can offer just the atmosphere boost needed to keep your space central and inviting to all who enter.
Seen below are custom color shutters, furniture and appliances that bring these kitchens to life. Custom color green shutters update a traditional white kitchen, evoking a calm and environmental feeling to enjoy a cup of tea or great conversation. Custom color light blue shutters paired with colorful kitchen utensils and accessories create a playful environment where everyone is welcome. Looking for a simple update, adding a yellow rug and chairs to the traditional white and grey kitchen provides a facelift and creates an energetic and warm environment, where everyone can enjoy each others company. A neutral accent wall gives your favorite tablecloth the opportunity to be the star in your kitchen. Ready to be really bold? Try a dark kitchen wall with natural wood furniture for a modern yet inviting feeling.
