Kitchen Remodel Trends 2023

Kitchen Remodel Trends for 2023

As your personal and professional life changes over time, your home should keep up with you! If you find that your kitchen is no longer the workhorse it used to be, and if awkward spaces, lack of storage, and stained counters are holding you back, it’s time to plan an exciting kitchen renovation.

But where to begin? Advances in technology and design popularity are exciting and provide so many more choices.

Even if you don’t consider yourself a trendsetter, you’ll want to be aware of the new kitchen remodeling trends in 2023.

From cabinet shapes, designs and colors, to the many materials available for countertops to innovative features in kitchen islands, there’s so much available and many details to consider. First, you’ll want to understand exactly what you and your family need from your new kitchen space.

  • Are you a fresh from the farm family or a mostly convenience cooking couple?
  • Do you keep things simple and basic or are you excited by the many countertop specialty appliances on the market?
  • Will there be room enough to move around when 2 or 3 are cooking at once? Or is storage space a higher priority?

The experienced professionals at Loughlin & Son Construction are happy to help you sort through all of today’s and tomorrow’s trends when working on your kitchen remodeling project.

Countertop Material

Today’s countertops are offered in a lighter, cleaner look, moving away from the busy, marbled stones of previous years. Take a look at softer colors which will work well with the new dramatic colors and warm wood shades of cabinets.

The materials that stand up to a hard-working kitchen while gleaming with beauty are typically made of quartz or quartzite. They are super easy to clean and maintain, as their non-porous surfaces are stain-resistant.  A new manufactured material, sintered stone, will make its way into more kitchens now.

Cabinet Door Choices

While the classic design of Shaker-style cabinets has been popular for many years, we will see simpler styles coming into today’s kitchens. A cleaner look for your cabinets means that they will always look great with your changing design choices over the years – whether your overall preference is modern and sleek, or you bring in ornate antiques to personalize your kitchen. Look for dramatic and bold cabinet color choices which pop with unique finishes and statement hardware in 2023.

Another trend ramping up in popularity is American traditional looks with the return of accent colors. Unlike those who gravitate toward modern and simple, some families welcome old-fashioned and vintage-looking pieces like classic beaded inset cabinets.

Drawers Replacing Cabinets

If your current kitchen has spacious cabinets under the counters, they can feel like caves when it’s time to find that one pan way in the back. Today gliding drawers gratefully take this space, with the increased ability to organize your cookware, small appliances, and tools. Accented by beautiful large hardware, they look as decorative as they are functional.

Islands

Some home chefs are opting for more of what they use the most. Say hello to double islands – one for meal-prep and cooking, with a second island serving as the center for family activities, dining, and even workspaces. If your family wants it, you can create it.

Instead of feeling stuck facing the wall while cooking in the traditional range and hood design, modern home chefs appreciate a cooktop built into an island so cooking can flow with the conversation.

While kitchen island with a stone countertop has been a tradition for years, we now see butcher block islands, as warm and beautiful as they are functional, making their way into today’s kitchens.
