Green Kitchens: ideas to inspire you for your kitchen renovation
June 22, 2023Traditional Kitchens: Trendy & Timeless
July 18, 2023No matter the colour or style, a wood kitchen offers depth, versatility and quality to any room size or budget.
The only limitations when it comes to designing a wood kitchen, is imagination, and luckily this is where we can help! We love working with wood, the texture and flexibility allows us to create a beautiful kitchen that will be completely individual to you. Below are a few ideas to get you inspired for your next kitchen renovation.
Don't forget that we offer a FREE design service that you can book online here or call us on 01626 356323. We are able to visit you or you are more than welcome to visit the showroom.
Mix and Match
To add contrast to a kitchen, think about using different textures with your wood. Marble produces a cool, smooth surface against the warm depth of wood creating a feel of timeless quality.
Although white is the most popular choice, like the photo shown, don't be afraid to introduce colours such as blues and greens which add more individuality.
The Dark Side
Dark wood is incredibly popular for 2023 and can work in any size of kitchen, if designed correctly. Whether you are looking for contemporary or classic, a dark kitchen creates warmth and depth. Adding bright accent colours with bronze or gold such as taps and drawer handles will give a lift to the room and add even more quality.
You may think smaller kitchens should always use light tones, however for a cozy, timeless, ambience, use dark wood with light floors or tile splashbacks.
Minimalist and Modern
If you are looking for a contemporary feel that won't date, think clean lines and light wood. Soft edges and smart appliances can create a stunning kitchen that stands out from the crowd. The benefit of wood is that, no matter what the design, it oozes quality. Light wood is perfect for creating a calming, clean and fresh feel to a kitchen and combined with colour, will keep it up to date with the latest trends.
Tiles, taps and tables can make a huge difference to a kitchen. Experiment with different styles before you make that final decision. Are you thinking Nordic/hygge or indoors/outdoors? The vibe is as individual as you are.
Timeless Texture
If you are looking to stand out, there is nothing like using two different, bold, materials in a kitchen. Think wood and metal, completely different textures, but when designed correctly, can create an outstanding kitchen that shows complete individuality and style. Whether you are going for an industrial or vintage vibe, adding metal is a stunning style for this room.
Not ready to go all out hardware? Test your kitchen with small additions, such as, worktops, cabinets, or even just tables and chairs (if room allows). Don't forget using a designer enables you to see your vision before committing.
Super Storage
As you have read, we are huge fans of wood, and another main reason is because of the stunning storage you can have! Ok, so you can have any size of storage in any material, however, we feel there is nothing quite like a wooden cupboard to hideaway those accessories!
Whatever you need space for, recipe books, food, pots or plates, a bespoke storage area can make your kitchen look completely unique - and tidy!
