The style of your kitchen
Like any other industry, kitchens have their fashions – in recent years there has been a shift from traditional detailing towards a more modern, clean look.
In fact, the latest most popular look is the high gloss unit, which is available in many colour options and offers a very simple, clean look. A recent survey revealed that 38% of people having a new kitchen would choose a contemporary wood and 26% would choose a contemporary high gloss kitchen.
White and cream are still the most popular colours – totaling 62% of the people surveyed, with 5% choosing black, 4% blue, 3% red and 26% preferring another colour.
Grainy woods have also been a recent trend and gloss laminated wood effect is rising in sales along with the more unusual woods including applewood, pearwood
Simple stainless steel handles enhance the effect and make a compact kitchen look larger, and there are even drawers available concealed within the cabinets now and doors that open with a simple push, so handles are no longer needed!
Stainless steel is still a major trend in both modern and traditional kitchens and it is likely to remain a strong influence in kitchens for some time to come.
Granite has also become much more popular as a worktop material. A large 47% of those surveyed preferred a granite worktop with 11% choosing wood and 10% preferring a composite material such as Corian.
If you're thinking of buying a new kitchen, make sure it’s one which will be a real showstopper – try to get an idea of what you like before you visit your kitchen retailer by looking for inspiration in magazines such as our own “Specialist” or other home interest magazines and take along pictures of kitchens that you like.
