Color is Key – Shades between Coral and Clay and Muted to Bright Red are making a brilliant splash on all the popular home trends websites.
HGTV recommends two-tones of color for pops of pigment. How far you want to take it is up to your sense of adventure. Here are few suggestions:
- Use accent pieces in one of the aforementioned shades. This includes lamps, rugs or kitchen accessories
- Try a minor remodel, including new backsplash, painted walls, or even painted cabinets if your current buildout can accommodate it
- Make big changes, if you are game. Lighter granite, quartz or marble stone countertops offset with darker or brightly hued cabinets make a statement
White is Out – Traditionalists need not panic. It won’t happen all at once, and it doesn’t have to happen overnight, but white is on the way out.
Décor Mag touts moodier kitchens as the latest in trends, but like HGTV suggests, adding even a minor change can give that new-kitchen feel. Here are suggestions for keeping the primary color white while stepping into the New Year.
- Paint an accent wall with muted tones or change out hardware on the cabinets
- Add a key shade to one focal point. Swap out, paint or reupholster the island chairs
- Want to go big without going too far? Try new flooring or add a contrasting granite, quartz or marble stone countertop to give the illusion of an entire room makeover
Heavy Metal & Reclaimed Wood Make the Cut – Contemporary and traditionalists can both fit these 2019 décor trends into the kitchen, according to Country Living Magazine.
Here are your trendy additions:
- Add copper faucets, stove hoods and fixtures – use one or all to add personality
- Try refurbished wood from farmhouses, construction sites, and yes, even chicken coops as cabinets
- Open up the shelves to turn everyday dishes into pieces of art
