Considered the heart of the home, the kitchen is where you cook and enjoy most of your meals – but it’s also a gathering place for the family. When designing your dream kitchen, it’s important to balance timeless features with playful colors, patterns and textures that reflect your personality and design aesthetic. We’ve seen big trends and styles that are already defining 2023 (think trendy paint colors, wood cabinets, and sustainability). Since interior design trends are ever-changing, we tapped interior designers and kitchen experts to share their top kitchen trends for 2023.
You may not want to completely redo your space every year, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t creative ways to keep your cooking space fresh and modern. For kitchen countertops, pros note that both natural and expressive stones will continue to be top choices. For kitchen colors, they love dusty greens and blues, as well as soft shades like terracotta, natural browns and creamy whites. We’re seeing designers experiment with bolder choices like mixed metals, high-contrast color palettes, dual islands, and over-the-top cabinetry hardware.
Change out your backsplash tile (dare we suggest something vibrant), add a new coat of paint to your kitchen island, or add handmade craft details – all of this can be done in a matter of hours. As much as we love a current trend, we leave you with this message from interior designer Kate Lester: “Focus more on what the space needs and less on what’s ‘trending.'” Doing what’s best for your space never goes out of style !”
