6 Kitchen Trends to Try in 2019

• 

If you are planning a renovation for your home this year, a modern kitchen is one of the best ways to raise the value of a home and attract long-term residents. Keep these 2019 kitchen trends in mind when choosing fixtures and finishes.

Open Shelving

Instead of closed kitchen cabinets and hidden storage, try open shelving. Open shelving is trending in line with the overall move away from minimalism in home decor. For the most versatility, opt for a combination of open shelving and traditional drawers and cabinets.

Colored Cabinets

While crisp, clean white, has been the norm for kitchen cabinets over the past five years are so, colors are making a comeback. While some people prefer to keep the kitchen neutral, adding a pop of color can provide interest to an otherwise muted color palette.

Backsplash Wall

A unique way to add that splash of color is with a feature backsplash wall. Instead of a small backsplash above the stovetop, the trend for 2019 is an entire wall of tile. Think an accent wall, but with a mosaic pattern instead of contrasting paint.

Quartz Countertops

Quartz is rapidly gaining popularity. Quartz provides the beauty of other natural stone options, like granite and marble, without the high price tag. It’s also more durable and easier to care for than more delicate materials, meaning it can stand up to the wear and tear of your home.

Matte Black Finishes

When used as an accent color, matte black adds a sophisticated, modern flair to a classic kitchen design. Try it for hardware accents, fixtures, and other details, especially if the rest of the kitchen is done in white or another light color.

Dramatic Fixtures

The sleek, minimal fixtures of years past have been all but replaced with ornate, vintage-inspired options. These larger drawer pulls, faucets, and features are designed to turn heads.
