You don’t have to break the bank to fall in love with your kitchen again. Whether it’s with a lick of paint, a terracotta tile or a new kettle, simple changes can go a long way to giving your kitchen the makeover it deserves.
1 EAT YOUR COLOURS
While white is a classic choice, colour has been slowly but surely seeping into our kitchens with steady confidence. “Greens and blues have been dominating our interiors – and not only as feature colours; we are seeing these shades direct the aesthetic of entire rooms, as well as kitchens,” says Giorgia Manenti from Kaboodle Kitchen. On top of these fan favourites, keep an eye out for rich reds, terracotta tones and mustard hues “as these shades encourage a warm, friendly and approachable mood and allow us to look to the future with optimism”, she says. Be careful not to delve too much into “Subway restaurant” territory by using modern, contemporary silhouettes to cut through these rich colours.

In a year of wild weather, climate change and sustainability are on our minds now more than ever. Kitchen trends are reflecting that mindset, especially when it comes to natural organic materials.
