The first quarter of 2022 has barely passed, but it’s already shaping up to be an even better year for excellent design and remodeling trends. From classy kitchen backsplashes and sophisticated lighting to timeless metallic finishes, the options are practically endless. Here are four kitchen remodeling trends you’ll see more of this year.
- Glazed Tile Backsplash
It’s all about a statement in your kitchen. A tile kitchen backsplash is a great way to add color, design, and texture. Whether it’s geometric, patterned or subway, this lovely and readily available surface material has graced countless kitchens across the country. But even the basic tile backsplash can be taken to a whole new level. Instead of picking ones with a matte finish, go for glazed options. They’re easy to cleann and they also reflect light around the space. And the best part about a glazed tile backsplash is they can add layers of different textures in your kitchen when paired with rustic elements.
2. Statement Lighting
Of course, natural light is still the best kind. But when the sun goes down, you’ll be able to transform the space – and create a mood that suits you for a quite night or entertaining. How about unique shaped pendant lighting over the island or a small but sleek chandelier in the breakfast nook? Lighting adds both function and style to your kitchen so be sure to consider the look you want during your kitchen remodel.
3. Gold Finishes
Gold can be considered a bit too showy, but when gold is used sparingly, it can become the highlight of your kitchen space. Try limiting it to the fixture finishes on the sink, and pair it with subtle white and gray elements to create a sleek and stylish room. Gold colored pendant lights and gold or brass hood ranges are also quite lovely.
4. Double Islands or Wet Bar
An island is already a statement piece in the kitchen, but what if you add another one? This luxury addition allows you to benefit from a bigger work surface, just as long as your kitchen has the space for the duo. Or, maybe, you want a wet bar? It’s the perfect place to mix up cocktails when entertaining. And remember, your island can add color to the room too.
