Open Space Kitchen Concept

Choosing open space kitchens, by integrating the kitchen and living room space, is becoming more and more popular. Modern kitchens are designed to facilitate an informal, interactive lifestyle where people can get together to entertain, socialize or work. An open kitchen concept can also make a small space or residential kitchen feel much larger. Tearing down walls is an easy way to trick the eye into thinking that you have got more square footage than you really do, which is something most people in NYC are looking for, and is hence a major continued trend in 2020.

Classic Black And White Kitchens

This time-tested color scheme is back for the luxury buyer in 2020. Consider using this understated design pattern of black and white kitchen cabinets to make other details stand out, such as elegant kitchen appliances, your modern kitchen layout or a bold art piece. Consider swapping in a shade of gray for a less traditional look in your custom kitchen. If you are a fan of dark wood cabinets, be aware that modern kitchen design is moving away from the industrial style of the past five years and toward a more homey look. Add some extra coziness to your kitchen by selecting a specifically warm type of wood for your kitchen cabinets. Opt for a lighter kitchen countertop to balance out the overall color scheme.

 

Dark And Bold Kitchen Designs

If strong contrasts in your kitchen is not quite your style, and you are also not necessarily looking for a timeless, all-white kitchen, so often adorned by modernists and minimalists alike, there is another highly trending design option that may be relevant for you. Using dark and/or bold colors and designs in your kitchen is an ongoing big trend in 2020 that can be implemented in a variety of different ways. Splashes of color find their way into modern kitchen design in 2020 via accent walls, tiles or accessories such as vases and kitchenware. Another option is to add a darker finish to your kitchen cabinetry, such as dark wood veneer or to choose a bold countertop such as black granite. White will probably still stick around in parts of your kitchen though since after all, white or other light colors are essential to drive your home’s brightness and will, same as in past years, also remain popular in the future.

Mixed Kitchen Materials

Today’s kitchen designers are often creating a so-called “mixed” look for their clients by combining difference materials and kitchen cabinet colors, hence breaking on purpose rules from the past decade. Pairing various kitchen materials and finishes together is a great way to add personality to your modern kitchen. This is especially effective for your kitchen countertops. A marble countertop with a wooden kitchen island, for example, can look beautiful when executed well, and can create a touch of elegance in your kitchen space. Ask a kitchen designer about the kitchen materials that are trending in 2020, and which ones they recommend using for your particular space and needs.

High-Tech Kitchen Features

Today’s kitchens in 2020 are subtly fitted to accommodate modern technology. Install hidden charging portals and smart kitchen appliances to add high-tech kitchen features without overwhelming your kitchen and interior space. Also, consider purchasing eco-friendly or solar-powered kitchen appliances and use modern innovations to lower your environmental footprint. If your kitchen space has large windows, be inspired by airy, European kitchen design elements, through which you can optimize the natural light in your 2020 luxury kitchen design. Large windows will open up your space and allow light to pour over your gorgeous kitchen features. If your kitchen is located in a more central location, consider skylights and wall cutouts to create this same effect.

Innovative Kitchen Appliance Options

Nowadays kitchens are thought of as more than just a place to cook a casual meal, and homeowners turn to professional-grade kitchen appliances for their new multi-purpose room. Why go to a bar if you can choose from a great selection of wine in your personal custom wine cooler? There is also no need to go to crowded coffee places early in the morning if you can have a built-in coffee machine in your beautiful custom kitchen. And it is up to you whether you would like to cover up your kitchen appliances behind cabinet doors, or prefer to leave them openly exposed as part of the design, which is a big trend in 2020, especially if you choose innovative, high-end kitchen appliances for your kitchen design.

Personalization In Your Kitchen

Regardless of currently ongoing kitchen design trends in 2020, your kitchen remodel project should reflect your own personal taste and style. Thanks to all the design options, your kitchen can reflect your personal style both aesthetically and functionally, and plan your kitchen redesign based on your individual design desires and needs. Especially if you are planning to live in your home for more than five years, it is important to consider your own needs rather than the needs of the future buyer. Find out more about your individual kitchen design preferences by browsing through our modern residential kitchen portfolio. And if you are having any doubts about your design choices, be sure to hire a professional kitchen designer, like we at Cesar NYC Kitchens, since we can provide best advice in terms of your buying and aesthetic decisions. No matter what your budget is, the design choices for 2020 are endless.

Our Custom Design Tips:

  • Remember to include storage. Even the sleekest kitchen designs can hide storage units, so be sure to include plenty of kitchen cabinets, shelving, and pantries. While it might be tempting to be as minimalist as possible, it is still important to store your kitchen tools somewhere. This will help avoid clutter later on.
  • Be wary of trends. Your kitchen is a high traffic area, so try to opt for timeless pieces when building your modern kitchen design. A piece might look attractive right now, but you don’t want to get tired of it once the next trend pops up. Always be mindful of how your tastes may change.
  • Think functionality. Every piece of your kitchen design should have a purpose. This will let you fully optimize the space, using the features as well as enjoying them. While aesthetics will drive your design, remember to keep functional aspects in mind.
  • Consider various options. Exploring several design possibilities will help you decide exactly what you are looking for. If you settle on the first kitchen counter material you see, for example, you might not know what other kitchen countertop materials you could like better. Be patient during this process, as you want the kitchen space to be ideal.
  • Hire an expert. Professional kitchen designers will help you decide on every detail of the room, creating a complete picture that considers a variety of design and functional aspects. When hiring a designer, be sure to look at their portfolio and decide whether you enjoy their past designs, as an indication if this kitchen designer is the right choice for you.

When making an investment on your home remodel, it pays off to choose the exact custom design elements and kitchen features you want. Not only will this be more aesthetically pleasing, but it will also help you get the most out of your purchase. According to Harvard University, homeowners were likely to spend $310 billion on remodeling and repairs in 2016, up 8.6% from the previous year, so it’s important to think about what you want.

Questions When Purchasing Cabinets

Your kitchen cabinets are a perfect example of this general home renovation priority and trend. When purchasing your beautiful, modern kitchen cabinets to complete your European kitchen design, be sure to consider the following questions.

  • How can you optimize your space? Redesigning your kitchen isn’t just about beauty – it’s also about functionality. Kitchen cabinets are also for storage, so consider which options will give you the best possible organization while still retaining style. Some designers may be able to customize secret compartments to reduce clutter in a subtle way.
  • Are you interested in custom options? Many residential kitchen projects are not compatible with stock cabinet options. Consider how customization can refine your own kitchen design to match your tastes exactly. Custom options could include color, frames, knobs, size, and cabinet finishes. Talk to a designer to choose the best design for your space.
  • What type of finish suits your style? Take the rest of your kitchen into account. If you are going for a more rustic look, a matte finish may be better. Modern kitchen designs, however, could work better with a glaze. Your kitchen countertops and flooring are a good place to start when pinpointing the aesthetic of the room.
  • What other design changes will you be making? Think of your luxury kitchen remodel as a complete picture. If you are ordering new kitchen cabinets, it could be a prime opportunity to redesign the rest of your interior space, let’s say including your interior furniture and bathroom vanities. However, you might also be satisfied with your current design and will be matching the cabinets to this. Just be sure to know this ahead of time.
