Cooking area renovation: which are the most popular design trends?
A kitchen is believed to be the heart of a home, so doing a kitchen renovation is never a bad idea. Not only that a kitchen renovation will upgrade the look of your house, but it will also substantially increase the market value of your home and its marketability. In this article, we are discussing kitchen renovation design trends, to help you better decide which is the best design idea for your cooking space.
Because renovating a kitchen area means quite a big investment, kitchen trends seem to suffer only small changes from one year to another, to allow the owners to preserve a timeless look. In 2014, we have the same kitchen trends as last year, with small differences. The primary element in kitchen renovation continues to be simple access and practical use. The latest innovations in kitchen design are smart storage aids, that allow easy access and use.
As all contemporary designs, kitchen design trends are eclectic and complex. Although the minimalist style, that accentuates maximum functionality with minimal furniture and appliances, is still in the picture, there are other trends rising in 2014. One of them is large scale design. More and more people discovered how stylish and practical a bigger kitchen is, particularly one that has the natural space dimension given by oversized illumination fixtures, dark colors, large windows and kitchen islands, extended tables and an open floorpan.
As for the colours, neutral colors still rule the kitchen design world. When renovating your kitchen, if you choose white or cool or warm gray, you can't go wrong, particularly if your furniture also has a matte finish.
However, if you feel that the all too contemporary trends don't match your taste or the overall design of your home, you can go for artisan of vintage furniture for your cooking area, which is also a big trend this year. Match that with medium to light matte floor covering and you will get the ideal kitchen area.
