So, what are some popular kitchen renovation trends for 2020?
Out-of-the-Ordinary Kitchen Materials
There are so many materials that are still unexplored by designers and homeowners alike. Experimenting with different materials creates a unique, inspiring ambiance with show-stopping, bold, statement-making details.
From cabinets wrapped in high-quality, luxurious leathers to backsplashes adorned in brass or glass, there are numerous materials that can elevate your kitchen to magazine-worthy.
Minimalism in the Kitchen
Allowing statement cabinets to make their debut in the kitchen is as easy as making everything else sleek, understated and minimal. This stops your kitchen from looking busy and puts the spotlight on your key investment pieces.
A great example is one of our projects; this polished and minimal North Vancouver kitchen with a lowered countertop that acts as a small dining bar, wrapping along the island.
Pet-Friendly Areas
Whether your home is large or small, more and more owners are integrating pet-friendly areas, otherwise called “cantinas” for their furry friends. A specific area can be built into the cabinets or island to act as a feeding area. You can also utilize dead space elsewhere in the home to house their food, treats, toys, and designate a space for washing and feeding.
Marble, Everywhere
We’re seeing this in more and more homes as marble and stone have made powerful returns in recent years. Many kitchens and bathrooms will feature wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling for a streamlined, clean look. This luxurious, elegant kitchen renovation idea is perfect for those who aren’t big on color, and are looking for an easy-to-maintain alternative to tiles.
Bold Backsplashes
Designers love experimenting with backsplashes. From large-scale tiles with bold patterns and vibrant colors to intricately embellished mosaic style tiles, the options really are endless. They not only add beautiful texture and reflectivity to a kitchen, but they also add visual interest, acting as an art.
An incredibly bold alternative to marble and tile is a large stone. It adds an incredible amount of organic luxury, bringing the outdoors inside, and making your home feel rustic and cozy.
Patterned Flooring
From honeycomb tiles intersecting with hardwood flooring and intricately patterned tiles, having one-of-a-kind flooring is a fun look we love helping clients achieve.
Modern & Traditional
Mixing traditional cabinetry with sleek, modern countertops or vintage lighting fixtures and faucets with contemporary cabinetry is becoming more “in.” This mixture of styles, textures, and colors creates an environment for a totally unique experience, whether in day-to-day life or when you’re hosting parties.
A Separated Kitchen
While open-concept floor plans are still loved and very much popular, separated kitchens are a classic construction standard that’s starting to come back. It not only makes the home seem a little bigger because of this segregation of space, but it also keeps the cooking area away from common living areas, keeping smells and messes at bay and far from kids and guests.
We love helping homeowners and business owners alike create the kitchens of their dreams. Whether you need help with a kitchen renovation in bringing your vision to life or a multi-disciplinary team of general contractors and designers, we’re here for you.
