1. Invisible Kitchens
We already sense your hesitation to embrace this kitchen trend so let’s get your concerns out of the way. Just because you can barely tell it’s there doesn’t take away from this kitchen’s maximum functionality and practicality. It creates a sleek and discreet space by blurring the invisible line that separates the kitchen from the rest of the house. The goal is to make the kitchen stand out less by letting hardware like taps, sinks, and cooktops live out of sight. Appliances are primarily stored away or displayed subtly, and the color scheme design throughout the kitchen is continuous.
2. Double Kitchen Islands
Why go double when single works just as well? Because two is always better than one. Double kitchen islands are multi-functional, providing a comfortable workspace for extra prep, working, dining, and storage room to house more appliances. Because the islands are strategically placed, they remain within reach as you work. Alongside this, double islands are show stoppers drawing the eye to your kitchen space; however, you can also add luxury appliances like a wine cooler or coffee machine to inject some decorative interest.

A breakfast bar can be an asset, serving as an impromptu dinner space while adding more style to your modern kitchen. Even with a small layout, you can still create a luxe look; pick between a statement color or test out different texture ideas to draw an eye to your breakfast bar.

Attaining a contemporary kitchen design that is beautiful and functional is the goal of every homeowner. Kitchen zoning allows you to optimize your kitchen space by placing items where they are most relevant. For instance, the sink and dishwasher are better situated next to one another for easy clean-up. Alternatively, placing the kitchen island near the pantry saves you a lot of back and forth when meal prepping.
