Bakes & Kropp 2023 Kitchen Trend Forecast
With a new year comes new trends! See what our resident kitchen specialist, Bakes & Kropp, predicts for the future of kitchens in 2023.
Soft Modern:
There is certainly a place for modernism but for many, the cold, impersonal feeling deters consumers from taking the plunge within their homes. With playful contrasts and layers of natural materials, Bakes & Kropp’s signature Soft Modern kitchens take a warmer approach that will empower more homeowners to explore contemporary aesthetics.
Color Accents:
Set against more sensible cabinetry finishes, bright accents allow homeowners to integrate color without fully committing to painted cabinetry. An accent color either in kitchen appliances or styling feels a bit more considered and digestible for most homeowners.
Mixed Materials:
High gloss adds a sophisticated element to any space, but in a kitchen, it tends to feel quite cold on its own. At the same time, an entirely matte or wood grain finish may leave something to be desired for homeowners hoping for a more contemporary style. Bakes & Kropp anticipates a heightened demand for mixed materials within kitchen design palettes, allowing homeowners to have the best of both worlds.
Hardware-Free Cabinetry:
Piggy-backing off of the demand for Soft Modern designs, Bakes & Kropp is seeing a greater draw toward hardware-free cabinetry faces. Pared-down cabinetry offers a cleaner look visually, allowing more room for individual elements within the greater kitchen’s styling.
