Every once in a while you’ll walk into a kitchen that’s got a very loud color or “strange” finish on the cabinets. You might think to yourself, “I wonder who advised that decision,” and you can bet that in many cases, it was probably all the homeowners choice. While a bold color can be well-placed, if you plan on getting a return on your investment down the road, it’s best to stick with trends that have stood the test of time.

White Hot Trends

A hot trend in kitchens right now (and regularly) is all white cabinetry. The use of white works across just about every design style out there, and can make a smaller space look larger. The bright feel that it creates, paired with darker cabinetry or an occasional bold color really makes that beautiful finish stand out.

Grey-ed Out Trends

Another cabinetry color that we are seeing rise in popularity is grey. While this is a darker, more modern look, depending on the door style and other aspects of your space, it can work across most design styles. Grey is perfect for the kitchen that gets a lot of traffic and needs to hide some of the wear and tear that kitchens and baths see.

Mix and Match Trends

One trend that has become very common among home remodels is to mix and match finishes throughout the space. Two-toned kitchens are becoming a hit with homeowners because of the unique combinations that they create. No two spaces look the same, since there are endless combinations that can be made. Two-toned spaces can involve anything from accent cabinetry to a two-color design style; it’s really up to the tastes of the homeowner.

Regardless of what your kitchen and bathroom look like now, you can update them by adding some of these popular design trends into the new space. These classy finishes are a great way to add style and flare to your space, as well as creating a space that will bring you a return on the investment.
