Thinking about refreshing your kitchen or bathrooms? If so, what is your style preference? Maybe you're looking for something traditional, or maybe you're looking to update your kitchen for a sleeker, modern look and feel.
While everyone has a different style, there are some trends that cut through groups. Here are four kitchen remodeling trends that may spark your interest. Best of all, they all easily incorporate marble, granite, and quartz countertops.
Modern farmhouse takes a break
The modern farmhouse style has been all the rage for the better part of three or four years. It's not going away, but more homeowners are taking a break from the modern farmhouse in the kitchen — including all-white color schemes. This year, the trend appears to be more natural wood in darker colors.
Natural wood cabinets complement beautifully with quartz and marble, especially in darker colors. The right quartz or marble enhances the beauty of natural wood. Throw in a hardwood or natural stone floor and you have a stunning makeover.
More functional islands
The island has been a hot trend for more than a decade. These days, homeowners are looking for more functionality from the islands. They don't want large islands that provide merely extra seating space or a place to stack stuff during the week. Many are looking to utilize the space under their islands for storage. Think functional drawers and cabinets.
Improving storage space in an island has minimal impact on countertop choice. However, consider eliminating any lip or overhang if you're going to install doors. An overhang will get in the way. A better choice is to have the countertop edge flush with the drawers.
Extra refrigeration space
One of the more interesting trends in 2024 is adding refrigeration space. Homeowners want a traditional refrigerator for most of their daily-use items, but they also add small refrigerators under counters to store things like beverages and special treats. Even small refrigerators built-in an island work well.
Smaller refrigerators are ideal for items that get replenished regularly, especially within reach of the kids. The bonus is that an extra fridge is always handy for entertaining a crowd.
Statement-making stoves and hoods
Finally, kitchen renovators are seeing a trend toward statement-making stoves and hoods. Rather than a plain white or stainless-steel stove and nondescript hood, homeowners are choosing to go big and bold with their hood-stove combinations.
You might not be in the market to replace your stove, but changing out the hood could make an enormous difference. By choosing a similar and complementary color, you can also coordinate your new hood with a quartz, marble, or granite countertop. A bold hood makes a huge statement in the modern kitchen.
