Design Tips | November Kitchen Trends for 2021

If you have been contemplating a kitchen makeover to ring in the winter season, there is no better place to start than the latest interior design trends and discoveries that are dominating new kitchens everywhere. Read on to find out how features such as mixed materials, bold colors, and touchless appliances can elevate your kitchen to the next level or help you find the next stunning kitchen of your dreams.

 

Mixed Materials

Long gone are the one-note, all-marble kitchens where any variation is forbidden. As more people are able to invest in designing their kitchens than ever before, thoughtful and vibrant designs that mix various materials are becoming top priority. These kitchens experiment with contrast and juxtaposition in textures, tones, and patterns to create uniquely balanced spaces that are guaranteed to catch glances.

Unique Cabinetry

This winter, designers are turning their attention to cabinetry and storage in order to turn a utilitarian feature of the kitchen into a stunning design facet. From unique rift-cut wood cabinetry to more surprising materials such as plaster, stone, and rough concrete, the sky is the limit when giving your kitchen storage a unique design-forward edge.

Enclosed Kitchens

The trend of open concept kitchens is drawing to a close for 2021, and as we all spend more time at home, there is a growing desire to separate food prep from the other activities of the home. Kitchens that exist as separate rooms, or previously open kitchens that are now being enclosed, offer a cozy and inviting atmosphere that isn’t disturbed by the rest of the home.

Bold Colors

One of the biggest and boldest trends we have seen for winter 2021 is the advent of the colorful kitchen. Throw away your white, gray, and black color swatches, and instead look for colors that spark joy: dramatic greens, royal blues, bright pinks and yellows. Play with contrasting colors and experiment with bending the rules for a kitchen that is as vibrant and unique as you.

Statement Lighting

When it comes to making your kitchen island stand out, nothing meets the mark quite like a dramatic statement light. For November, we look towards artfully-designed pendants and chandeliers that add organic shape and striking style to any kitchen. Layered lighting is also an emerging trend that combines different styles of pendants and task lights to create a truly unique space.

Hands-Free Kitchens

The latest kitchen appliances and fixtures are all about multi-tasking and hands-free utility with a paired-back design. Push-open cupboards have replaced traditional pulls, touchless faucets and dispensers still dominate the luxury kitchen space, and voice-activated appliances work to make the meal prep experience flow seamlessly.
