Your kitchen is one of the most essential assets in your home. It is not only a functional space but also plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall appearance of your home. Hence, you may consider a whole-scale renovation for your kitchens in Durham. You can successfully plan these renovations by considering factors such as energy saving, the build, aesthetics, convenience and storage. We have suggested many trends for your next renovations or new build based on all these factors.
Three contemporary kitchen trends you need to consider
- Energy-efficient designs
A kitchen uses the most energy on an everyday basis in a household. This is where you can minimise your energy expenditures by effecting some renovations. You can put it into effect by choosing appliances offering lower running costs. It is possible to tell this feature by looking at their energy labels. If your kitchen is running on energy-hungry old appliances, you should consider upgrading your appliances. This is a big step towards renovations in itself. A professional building and renovation company can also add many design elements to the kitchen to make the space more energy-efficient. This includes ample natural light, double-glazing windows and much more. - Built-to-last
Are you looking to create and build a kitchen that will last for a long time? You need to revise all the materials you can use. For instance, you can use more sustainable products such as natural timbers, stones for worktops, glass composites and much more. Natural materials often have a rough appearance. This could also be aesthetically pleasing. Many homeowners are distancing themselves from the concept of perfectly straight lines in favour of a more handcrafted and personalised feel. - Intuitive storage
Larger fridges and more inventory spaces are in demand. Increasingly, more homeowners are choosing storage-optimised kitchens. An L-shaped kitchen is a great idea for an optimised kitchen. Larger pantries have also become popular for storing larger quantities of dried goods. If you have smaller kitchens, breakfast cupboards are a great alternative to keep items like toasters, coffee machines, and tinned foods and cereals. All these imply your worktops would be left clutter-free.
