Every year, new trends dominate the kitchen design marketplace. As the leading provider of kitchen refacing in Northeast Philadelphia, we want to make sure our customers stay ahead of the curve. Below are some of the top kitchen trends for 2020; you can use these ideas to influence your design ideas and add some style and panache to your cooking area.
Open Shelving
Over the last several years, upper cabinets have started to disappear as design trends have evolved. Open shelving is increasing in popularity as young homeowners prefer spacious kitchen areas as opposed to the cramped kitchens they grew up using. Open shelving can add personality to your kitchen with strategically placed accessories and decor. Collections of spices, glassware, and mugs can look great, and open shelving makes these items more accessible. Open shelving can also be used to make pots, pans, and plates more accessible, depending on your style preference.
Deep Drawers
To make up for the lack of upper cabinet storage, there is an increased demand for deeper and larger drawers. Pots, pans, bowls, plates, and culinary accessories can all be stored conveniently beneath the countertop in deep storage spaces. This makes it easier for homeowners to clear up and store things after a busy cooking session. Pantry items like baking ingredients, pasta, and rice can also be stored in this space, as can certain appliances such as microwaves and drawer-type refrigerators.
Full-Wall Backsplashes
Both functional and beautiful, full-wall backsplashes can offer a dramatic accent wall to your kitchen’s overall design. These surfaces are also more durable and easier to clean than painted walls. A product of the trend to eliminate cabinetry in the upper kitchen areas, backsplashes have been granted the opportunity to extend from countertop to ceiling uninterrupted. A large slab of marble in this area can look like a work of art. Additionally, classic tiling can add character and texture to the massive expanse of an open wall.
