Because of the global pandemic, we have spent a lot of time in our homes, especially our kitchens. This time has given us more opportunities to cook at home, try new recipes, and spend mealtimes with family. The kitchen is definitely an integral part of our homes, and it deserves a great design. Here are some design trends we believe will take off this year in 2022.
The Little Details
We love to think of major focal points when designing a kitchen–the stove, countertops, and windows. But, a huge trend for 2022 is incorporating small, eye-catching details. Think small plants near focal points or chic silverware. These finishing details can really tie in everything in your kitchen; it’ll make your space even more unique, knowing that every aspect was thought out. Not sure where to start? Here’s a tip! If your walls or significant focal points are bright and bold, stick with neutral silverware or dish towels as finishing touches. If the focal points are neutral, add a pop of color!
Feels Like Home
It seems like homeowners are tired of having perfectly polished and pristine finishes that wear down from the hustle and bustle of their home. An interesting trend that may be popular in 2022 is the lived-in appeal that takes homeyness to a new level. If you recently bought a new home, redesign your kitchen with unlacquered brass finishes, patinated metals, and muted wall paint to instantly bring in the feeling that your family has lived there for years. For those who want their home to have a warm, cozy, and generational sentiment, this trend will definitely be for you!
Play with Color
While white and neutral colors are popular for any space, 2022 is the year for unique colors. Adorn your kitchen walls with a rich and bold color that will make your appliances pop. Playing with different colors and textures will give your kitchen a distinctive look and impress your guest. Be adventurous with your space; try mixing green or yellow hues on your walls with gold or brassy textures and materials.
