Cabinetry is a large part of any kitchen and greatly influences the vibe a space gives off. When you’re planning a kitchen renovation, it’s natural to focus on the color of the cabinetry first (we know, you’ve got it all picked out on Pinterest), but it’s important to remember that color is not the only factor to consider when making a decision. Cabinets come in many different colors, styles and appearances. Get acquainted with these top trends in cabinetry this year before you begin your next project in the kitchen:
Open Shelving
This kitchen cabinetry trend has risen in popularity in the past few years. It is a great way to display your beautiful china, glassware or serving dishes in plain sight, without them cluttering the countertops. The open shelves allow you to add color and interest to the kitchen without paint, tile or additional purchases. Open shelving also eliminates the need for opening and closing cabinet doors or adding hardware to doors or drawers. While many believe that this is a passing trend, we think that this can be a great cabinetry alternative for many different kitchen styles.
Shaker Style Cabinets
The shaker style cabinet is timeless, classic and has always been a quality choice when it comes to cabinet style. Shaker cabinets are simple and allow you to add personality to your kitchen with other finishes and materials including backsplashes, countertops, cabinet hardware and appliances. The simplicity also helps to make the kitchen attractive to potential buyers in the future.
