Major trends include shift toward earthy
boldness, continued dominance of white and popularity of
MasterBrand's 2024 Finish of the Year Foxhall Green
JASPER,
Ind., Oct. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ --
Leisure-first, subtle luxury and sophistication are trending across
fashion, art and pop culture, and the home is no
exception. MasterBrand Cabinets today released new data from a
survey of more than 1,200 interior design industry experts giving
an in-depth look at the emerging influences that will drive kitchen
design in the coming year, including the announcement of its 2024
Finish of the Year, Foxhall
Green.
"Today, individuals are seeking solace within walls of their
homes and adopting features that promote comfort and flexibility,"
said Stephanie Pierce, director of
design and trends at MasterBrand Cabinets. "More than any other
room in the home, the kitchen has become a space that brings people
together and a sanctuary where time slows down."
The recent survey findings of kitchen designers and dealers
uncover what's next in kitchen design, the materials designers are
gravitating toward and the ways spaces are transforming around us
in 2024, including:
Slower-Paced Living
Today, people are looking to
preserve some of the slower pace of living learned during the
pandemic, and ongoing self-care is now viewed as essential for
mental preservation and peace. Forty-five percent of those surveyed
are spending more time than ever in their kitchens, which is taking
center stage as a hub of relaxation and connection and driving the
design decisions we're making.
Simple Yet Versatile Colors and Finishes
Light
tone wood finishes, whites and off-whites are on the rise,
including bleached-out natural woods and white oak with a light or
natural tone. According to Houzz, 40% of renovated kitchens
feature white cabinets and 46% of homeowners are also opting for
color mixing in the kitchen. Most often, they are choosing a
contrasting island cabinet color with the most popular choices
being blue, gray, black and warm brown tones.
Also on the rise is a suite of greens that are becoming
steadfast cabinet standbys in designers' toolboxes. This trend has
earned Foxhall Green, a grayed
forest green, the title of MasterBrand Cabinets' 2024 Finish of the
Year. Foxhall Green pairs seamlessly
with a wide range of other colors and stains to create a palette
that's perfectly in line with current home trends and marries
nicely to the resurgence of stained wood tones. The versatility of
the color means it can be a classic choice when paired with gold
hardware or create a moody ambiance when paired with black.
Raw, Organic and Warm
Emerging color trends also
include a notable rise of boldly soft colors and raw, organic and
warm shades. A transition from vivid reds to warmer, orange-based
reds brings an earthy boldness to interior spaces. Hues of warm
orange-reds are showing up on walls, furnishings and décor, adding
depth and character to interiors and providing a visual focal point
that effortlessly draws the eye in and sparks interest without
taking away from a neutral, earthy space.
Top Kitchen Styles and Emerging
Influences
Transitional, soft modern and modern
traditional are the top three trending kitchen styles, with
homeowners and designers blending design elements to balance
aesthetics, functionality and personal flair in kitchens. The
result is both modernity and timeless elegance, including curved
edges and arches becoming increasingly popular in home design.
Simplifying for Functionality and Universal
Storage
Eighty-three percent of designers surveyed
noted kitchen islands have replaced traditional dining tables.
Multifunctional islands with optimal storage allow for a
clutter-free and well-organized space to be used as a gathering
place, workstation and serving area.
With the rise of open shelving, there is also a need to offset
the reduction in kitchen storage space, leading to an increase in
the use of working butler's pantries and large walk-in pantries as
space allows.
