Choosing the right Kitchen

Over half (56.8%) of the kitchens designed and most often requested type of kitchen design is traditional. However, we identified contemporary and clean, simple lines as kitchen design trends to watch for.

When asked for the top three most used cabinetry finishes, over three-fourths of designers report using cherry and maple, while paints and exotic woods tied for third. This contrasts with once dominant oak cabinetry, with only 15% of designers reporting usage. Moreover, designers identify stainless steel as the top color scheme in today's kitchen designs with 60.8% of designers reporting usage, followed by beiges/bones with 57.7%.
