Kitchen trends 2023: 16 inspirational ideas
“With the kitchen often labeled as the heart of the home, we tend to see a lot of personalization and upgrades added to this part of the house,” says Jo Winston, sales and marketing director at St. Modwen Homes (opens in new tab).
“Homebuyers love making their kitchen space unique, adapting to both their interior taste and their day-to-day needs. With the New Year just around the corner, we are already seeing trends emerging in our customer’s kitchen design choices, and it’s clear that 2023 is set to be a year of unexpected color, precious metals, and natural countertops.”
Here are the predicted kitchen designs and ideas set to be hugely popular with homeowners this year…
1. Social kitchen islands

Kitchen islands are one of the interior design features that can help sell your house, considered a worthwhile investment for any kitchen – so they are always on trend. But for 2023 kitchen islands are evolving to become even more of a point of focus, as they become more socially focused.
Kitchen island design next year will be tailored to incorporate more seating, to ensure the space is completely inclusive, whether cooking, entertaining or just relaxing with the family.
“Whatever its size or style, the kitchen island, as its name suggests, is a centralized feature,” explains luxury kitchen designer Tom Howley (opens in new tab). “It’s in a handy position that allows you to utilize every inch of space. By centralizing cooking or preparation areas, it makes the kitchen much more sociable, allowing the chef to talk to others as they get dinner ready instead of standing with their back to family and friends.”
2. Natural timber tones

Our desire to welcome nature into our homes is undoubtedly one of the biggest interior design trends of recent years. It’s therefore, unsurprising that one of the key kitchen trends in 2023 is that of welcoming natural timber tones.
“We are seeing such a demand for timber in the kitchen, especially oak options,” explains Melissa Klink, creative director at Harvey Jones (opens in new tab). “Creating interesting color stories for the kitchen using a play on the material instead of paint selection.”
“Pulling out the blues, greens, and pinks from within marbles, granites, and other worktop surfaces is a perfect way to balance out the warmth from the wood whilst it still gives a dynamic impact without needing to paint with color.” Choosing a neutral wall color would suffice to let the timber tones of cabinetry and butcher’s block take center stage.
3. Mixed metallics

From handles to splashback ideas and more, metallic finishings are going to be the most sought-after material of 2023. “We’re noticing a shift with consumers looking to incorporate mixed metals into their kitchen designs,” explains Alex Main, director of The Main Company (opens in new tab).
“Metals in similar tones offer a cohesive style, such as copper and gold which pair perfectly due to their warm undertones, or cooler metals like nickel and chrome which sit well against lighter colors and modern kitchen designs. Using too much of the same metal can look one-dimensional, so ensure the finish you choose suits its placement in the kitchen.”
“Shiny chrome is proving to be less popular, with some designs favoring matte black to be somewhat more unassuming,” says the interior designer at Optiplan Kitchens (opens in new tab), Andy Briggs. “However, more muted choices of metal are taking off in popularity in kitchens in 2023. Materials such as pewter, copper, and brushed brass create a much more natural effect.”
“Choosing a more toned-down option for your ‘kitchen jewelry’ can really switch up the aesthetic of your kitchen and give much more character than ever before.” Similar to that of metallics updating key bathroom trends in 2023 too.
“We anticipate that gold, copper, and brass are set to be favored in 2023, adding small, sophisticated touches that make a huge overall difference,” remarks Jo Winston. “Consider brass cabinet handles, copper taps, and gold-toned accessories such as kettles and storage to incorporate these understated additions into your space effortlessly.”
4. Natural material countertops

Considered materials are all important for organized kitchen countertops of the future. “Natural stone is a timeless choice for many homeowners, with Ceasarstone quartz and marble worktops remaining firm favorites in 2023,” reveals Alex.
“Renowned for its quality finish and incredible versatility, natural stone works across both traditional and modern kitchens alike. From countertops to splashbacks, there is a huge array of options out there to suit any style of kitchen.”
“Marble is still in high demand, we suspect this trend will stay for a while,” says Melissa. “It feels so timeless and classic in its finished appearance. Stunningly beautiful and full of character and charm, you can make such an impactful statement applying marble in the right way, or even as a hidden moment within a pantry larder or breakfast dresser.”
5. Japandi kitchen designs

In alignment with the desire for natural materials, the trend for dedicated Japandi-style kitchens is set to go stratospheric in 2023. With Japandi living room, Japandi bedroom, and Japandi bathroom designs becoming increasingly popular over the last 12 months it’s no surprise that this calming scheme has made its way to the hub of every home – the kitchen.
A fusion of understated Japanese aesthetics with the comfort of Scandinavian style, the Japandi kitchen trend is ideal for creating a serene and timeless feel in any kitchen.
“Incorporating organic textures and earthy tones into the kitchen is a wonderful way of creating a cozy and calming environment in the home,” says Mor Krisher, head of design at Caesarstone. “Bringing a touch of the outside in through raw materials and nature-inspired designs promises to instantly uplift a kitchen and connect us to our surroundings.
“Choosing a worktop that incorporates these earthy tones and textures will instantly create a cozy environment that links you with the natural world. A neutral surface will also give you flexibility when choosing accessories if you’re someone who likes to update your kitchen with the seasons.”
An abundance of house plants is key to mastering the Japandi style, in any room. “Now is the perfect time to lean on your old friends, the house plants,” says Camilla Clarke, creative director at Albion Nord (opens in new tab). “Shake things up by re-locating them so rooms in your home gain a new lease of life. Plants increase levels of oxygen and nice smelling flowers, of which both can help boost your mood and productivity levels.”
6. Modern cellars

Wine cellars no longer mean an underground cavernous space filled with dusty bottles of vintage wines, in fact, the modern-day cellar is anything but. Homeowners are seeking more inclusive ways to dedicate space to storing their fine wines for entertaining friends at home.
“The wine cellar has long been a point of conversation for discerning collectors – a showpiece of the home to be shared with friends and other connoisseurs alike,” says Fisher & Paykel’s (opens in new tab) market product manager, Jo Jackson. “The best wine storage turns your collection into a beautiful design feature in its own right. Modern wine cabinets are thoughtfully engineered to ensure that your wine is perfectly cared for.”
Jo shares key considerations when installing a wine cabinet, saying: “Modern kitchens are also often designed as very light, open spaces with skylights or bi-fold doors and hard stone floors with under-floor heating. These kitchens are stunning and become the centerpiece of people’s homes but they do add a level of complexity when you’re looking to install a wine cabinet, as both the light and heat can affect the storage of wine.”
“UV light can create hydrogen sulfide compounds in wine, which affect the tannins and the color of wine, but if you source a good appliance with UV tempered glass and dimmed LED lighting you can protect against this.”
7. Lived-in homely touches

Kitchens are reclaiming the lived-in, homely look. Because as the busiest and most functional space in the house, a level of show home perfection is hard to live up to at all times. That’s not to say we no longer want beautifully organized kitchens, it just means there’s room for a little more reality and comfort to be visible to make homes feel cozy and lived in.
“As we reflect on the past few years, comfort is now more than ever at the forefront of people’s minds,” says Alex. “As a result, kitchens are evolving to include nostalgic detailing and homely touches. We’ve seen a rise in requests for bookcases displaying personal possessions and traditional large farmhouse sinks with quality sink skirts, which give kitchens so much personality and warmth.”
“For 2023 there’s a noticeable shift away from the sparkling show home style that we have seen in recent years,” says Andy. “Coming out of a few years of staying at home more, homeowners are acknowledging the practicality and functionality of their kitchens and aren’t afraid to have them reflect that in their presentation.”
“The kitchen functions as the heart of the home and it should be built accordingly. The kitchen should accommodate the whole family with enough comfortable and cozy seating to congregate and relax. Many homeowners are also considering pets and their needs, building in feeding and water stations for furry friends – ensuring the heart of the home is perfect for all members of the family.”
“Incorporating additional pieces beyond the main furniture of the space is a fun way to add personality to a kitchen,” suggests Melissa. “Antiques, family heirlooms, and unique vintage items are all becoming really popular to intermix with the standard cabinetry pieces.”
8. Warming drawers
(Image credit: Future)
Another design element proving popular, due to the amount we entertain at home, is warming drawers. “Eating and entertaining at home is a macro trend that strengthened throughout the pandemic,” explains Jo Jackson, “but this is a 10-15-year old movement that is continuing and our increased time in the home has only sped it up as people were more comfortable in smaller groupings.
“Cost increases are also flowing through to restaurants, which will put some people off eating out as much as they used to and instead drive their investments to the home.” For all these reasons, kitchen designers are seeing increases in design details that add to the ease of entertaining at home, such as warming drawers where food is kept to the optimum temperature while you busily prep and serve elsewhere.
A warming drawer can be used in a number of ways, from a dedicated space to help bread dough rise perfectly, keep dishes and mugs warm until serving, and some can even be used as a slow cooker or to preserve food to create a healthy winter snack.
9. Smart technology

The modern home is smarter than ever, as technology evolves to aid our everyday lives more and more. The kitchen is no exception to this, from smart lighting to the latest cooking gadgets, kitchen design in 2023 ensures technology is seamlessly integrated.
“Every aspect of our lives is being impacted and made easier in some way by new smart technologies and advances, and your kitchen shouldn’t be left behind,” says Andy. “Simple additions such as LED lighting to accent display shelves can be helpful at creating an eye-catching feature or can have a more practical use of lighting up the dark corners of a cupboard when installed with a sensor on the cupboard door.”
“The wine lovers of the house might focus their technology elsewhere, investing in temperature-controlled wine fridges, for example, to keep your evening tipple at optimum drinking temperature.” How you choose to use it is a matter of personal preference, but incorporating tech can improve all kitchens great and small.
10. Pleasingly practical pantries
(Image credit: Future)
The trend for well-organized pantries is going nowhere for 2023; it’s the kitchen feature that almost every household desires.
“Walk-in and hidden pantries are a big trend for us at the moment,” explains Melissa. “We are cleaning down the cabinetry on the wall and opting for storage that is tucked away around the corner. Plus, that wow moment, when you open what looks like a cupboard door to expose a whole secret room behind just never, gets old. A crowd-pleaser for sure!”
11. Eco-credentials

As we all strive to make more sustainable living choices, it’s unsurprising to see that reflected in how and where we invest in our homes. “Using sustainable materials in the home, especially cork, will continue to be popular as homeowners are thinking now, more than ever, about how to be environmentally responsible with their design,” says James Scully, founder of natural flooring retailer Recork (opens in new tab).
“Focusing on the process of how things are made and swapping mass-produced ‘fast’ manufacturing means championing green materials is now at the forefront.”
“A consideration to work with sustainably conscious brands is also becoming more prevalent,” says Melissa. “It means a lot to us that we do everything we can to care for our planet and we see this same value in our clients. Ensuring we craft kitchens that allow you to refurbish them over time instead of contributing to landfill is of great importance to our brand.”
“Our favorite trend right now is the continued movement towards making more environmentally conscious choices,” says Mor Krisher. “We’ve seen growing interest in our Lifetime Warranty and sustainability credentials, which is unsurprising when consumers continue to choose products that are made with quality and longevity in mind.”
“Consumers want to know that the choices they are making will be a wise investment and are therefore choosing products that are manufactured with durability and quality in mind so they can have peace of mind that their countertops will look beautiful for years to come.”
12. Comforting textures

Textures are key in design right now, tantalizingly tactile surfaces and materials are dominating our homes as we crave a sense of comfort. And yet our kitchens are often composed of straight lines and flat colors. All that is set to change for 2023 in kitchen design as we look to satisfy our subconscious desires to explore through touch.
“The right use of texture can create the most spectacular kitchens and living spaces. And with the latest innovations in marble and wood effects, textured surfaces can be achieved at a far more affordable cost,” says Wayne Dance, at InHouse Inspired Room Design (opens in new tab). “Layering textures and tones creates dynamic spaces. Marry together the right combinations and you’ll find yourself enjoying a huge dose of satisfaction every day.”
13. Statement lighting

The kitchen is no longer seen as a setting for mere spotlights and task lighting, increasingly we’re seeing statement chandeliers and pendants adding stylish finishing touches to a kitchen in the same way as they would in a stylish living room trend or dining room.
“Customers are increasingly beginning to consider lighting as a part of their overall kitchen design,” says Dawn Filkins, head of creative at Smile Kitchens (opens in new tab).
“We’ve seen many requests for statement pieces such as chandeliers or pendant lighting fixtures, offering a brilliant way to bring the homeowner’s personality and style into a space in a unique way. With the rise in broken plan living, lighting also offers an effective way to break up different zones of the home as the lighting changes between areas.”
Adding statement lighting is also a great way to make a home feel more expensive on a budget, especially in a kitchen where the presence of a chandelier might be unexpected and therefore more striking.
14. Soft modern design

Contemporary kitchen designs often run the risk of feeling too clinical, and as a result, are not always suited to a more lived-in home. But fear not because Bob Bakes and Paul Kropp, co-founders, of luxury kitchen designers Bakes & Kropp (opens in new tab) have developed a ‘softer’ approach to the modern aesthetic.
“As a studio, we have seen a continually growing demand for modern kitchen design,” Bob explains. “There is, however, a gap in the market for a tempered design that offsets the cold, impersonal feeling that deters homeowners from taking the plunge. In response, we’ve refined what we are dubbing ‘soft modern’ kitchen design – an approach that layers warm elements to soften that feeling.”
“This has evolved directly from client needs and continues to grow in popularity as certain homeowners look for sharper designs. In our soft modern kitchens, contrast is key. We might choose to use a very high-gloss finish for the cabinetry and offset it with a matte wood finish for open shelving or accent panels.”
15. Mixed materials

Kitchens of 2023 no longer feel restrictive, where surfaces have to match throughout to be considered a cohesive space. In fact, sometimes a different colored countertop can do wonders to make a cramped kitchen layout feel more open. And a row of contrasting cabinets might just be the best small kitchen color idea to create an illusion of extra space.
“Mixing materials is an easily achievable trend and it’s a style that appeals to those who favor a more eclectic look,” says Josie Medved, design expert at kitchen manufacturer Symphony Group (opens in new tab). “Choosing contrasting materials and colors for cabinets, worksurfaces, flooring, wall tiles, and splashback ideas creates a laid-back, relaxed feel that’s ideal for open-plan kitchens.
“It’s also ideal for those on a budget, who prefer to add to their interior design as they go rather than buying everything all at once. The end result is less of a matchy-matchy vibe and more of a casual feel, ideal for 2023.”
16. Darker tones
(Image credit: Symphony Group)
As we’re seeing in the latest flooring trends 2023 the demand for darker finishes is growing increasingly popular, a move away from the huge uptake for Scandi bleached woods and lime-washed finishes for stone. Richness in natural materials is returning to our homes in a big way for 2023.
“There is a clear demand for dark and dramatic kitchen designs with a natural twist,” explains Josie. “Whether that’s a deep-toned wood effect cabinet or organic stone – homeowners are looking towards these finishes more and more.”
“It’s a trend that takes last year’s embracing of natural materials one step further and it works just as well in modern interiors as it does classic schemes. This makes it a versatile look that complements all kinds of properties and sleek handleless cabinets as well as integrated handles and statement knobs and pulls.”
17. Elegant fluting

One of the biggest trends for all surfaces in the kitchen right now is that of fluting and reeding – where a textured surface makes a big impact without the need for show-stopping color. This understated surface texture is an elegant way to add interest and depth to a kitchen design, be it on kitchen cabinets, splashbacks, or even glass.
Fluting is not a new concept, but it is gaining popularity in modern kitchens to create an enduring design that feels more prominent in 2023. “The grooves are created to add a sense of movement to any surface and, when used sparingly, inject a subtle level of interest without overwhelming the overall design,” says Charlie Smallbone, the founder of iconic brand Smallbone of Devizes and Ledbury Studio (opens in new tab). “It is therefore a great technique for softening the look of a contemporary kitchen and can be applied to many materials and surfaces.”
18. Kitchen jewelry

The term kitchen jewelry thanks to the rising interest in how to make kitchens look expensive on a budget has led to a trend for exploring the finer details when it comes to transforming kitchen designs.
“With lighter home updates set to take precedent over heavier refurbishments for many this year, homeowners are looking for simple ways of refreshing their kitchens without breaking the bank,” Paul Jenkinson, founder and managing director of kitchen brand LochAnna Kitchens.
“Hardware has been a huge topic of conversation, with trends around handle style, material, and a mixture of the two really spicing things up. Think mixed metals, copper splashbacks, and colored brassware to add various points of interest and a feel of elegance and luxe.”
8 Key kitchen color trends for 2023
In addition to the latest layouts, must-have integrated appliances, and countertop materials there are also influential paint color ideas for kitchens that designers are predicting to be the most popular for the year ahead and beyond.
Timeless white

You could easily be forgiven for thinking white was no longer an on-trend color choice, because of the fondness for darker shades of blues, grey, and even black taking the spotlight. But like the best white paint colors, white kitchens will always be a wise choice.
“Timeless white kitchens will be big in 2023,” predicts Tom. “We have seen such a shift in how we want our homes to look, feel, and function over the past three years. This is inevitable because of just how much time we’ve spent in them, having transitioned from the bustle of commuting to an office into a work-from-home lifestyle. We need our homes to feel that much roomier, lighter, and brighter. “
“White kitchens do this perfectly, offering an energizing, transformative aesthetic to any space and mastering the art of illusion, making smaller rooms feel bigger.”
Grounding earthy tones

As we’ve seen from the latest interior paint color trends 2023 the color palette for next year is a heady mix of earth-derived tones that welcome a sense of calm.
“In 2023, we are going to see an influx of calming tones and colors rooted in the natural world,” explains Andy. “People’s lives are so stressful and busy, that coming home and into your kitchen should evoke a sense of calm and belonging.
“Using sandy, earthy tones, complemented by similar deeper natural tones such as terracotta and deep greens (creating the vision of a roaming countryside), you can create a kitchen that is homely and serene for you to enjoy and escape the hustle and bustle of daily life. Natural and eco-friendly materials are increasing in popularity, with wood being a big focus of kitchens going forward.”
Milan Design Week featured a lot of kitchens that showcased mixing materials such as glass, stone, and woods of different tones, creating an earthy and back-to-nature design to help promote calm in your home.
Dusky pink

Unlike the Barbiecore fashion trend, next year’s kitchen hue is a sophisticated pink paint color that exudes warmth and character.
“Our brave new paint color Pink Dusk is an elegant, more playful alternative to grey it creates incredible warmth and an alluring appeal to any kitchen,” reveals Tom. “Pink may divide opinion; however, over the past few years, this versatile shade has boomed in popularity.”
“Pink Dusk is not like your usual bubblegum pink, It’s incredibly soft, charming, and moody. You can use this color across a full kitchen design or pair it back with complementary tones opting for a pink island.”
Shades of soft green
(Image credit: Smile Kitchens)
Soothing shades of green are still a firm favorite for kitchen color choices for 2023, supported by the “Throughout 2022, we have seen the reintroduction of greens to our kitchens,” says Dawn. “With many looking to replicate the sage green tones that have become popular across homes over recent years, our Eden, an earthy sage green, has seen a huge boost. We’ve also found many looking for deep, dark greens.”
“Some combine these greens with each other to have a monochromatic kitchen that is a real standout,” Dawn explains. “With wall cabinets in a lighter green, creating a feeling of a larger space than with darker cabinetry alone.”
We can envision Dulux Colour of the Year 2023 working beautifully as the kitchen cabinet paint color paired with a darker green on the walls to celebrate this trend.
Coastal sky blue

Coastal charm is fast becoming a dominating trend for interiors in 2023, perhaps it’s the feeling of escapism – with endless blue skies and seascapes conjuring up the image of sunnier destinations.
“Inspired by homes in the Hamptons, we’ve seen a huge surge in customers looking for light blue kitchens,” Dawn reveals. “New England style is a balance of light blues with whites and off-whites to create a coastal feeling in the home that feels light and airy.”
“We’ve particularly seen an uplift in customers looking for kitchens in our Sky, a light sky blue tone, and Spring, a deeper light blue that has undertones of green,” says Dawn, “perfect for a statement island, excellently pairing with white. Frequently this look is accompanied by wicker, bamboo, and warm wooden furniture to give touches of warmth to a space.”
Daring reds
(Image credit: Kitchen Makers)
Inspired by the encouragement to use Pantone’s Color of the year 2023 in our homes there’s a resurgence for using daring shades of red, especially when looking to paint kitchen cabinets.
“Over the past few years there has been an increase in color being used in the kitchen, with bolder colors such as greens and blues having been on trend recently, ” explains Ben Burbidge, managing director, of Kitchen Makers (opens in new tab).
“This year, the trend is even more adventurous, with braver colors such as Pinks and Reds becoming increasingly popular. To bring a more adventurous palette to your own kitchen, make pink the new neutral, pairing it with a punchy red island for a kitchen that stands out from the crowd.”
Bold red kitchen cabinets are best paired with light counters and walls to keep the look fresh and modern, rather than dating the overall scheme with dark wooden worktops.
Dark forest green

In contrast to softer green, there’s still a huge demand for more brooding shades such as hues of forest green that welcome added depth to a kitchen color scheme. These darker shades still hold a connection with nature but with a more statement approach to using key color trends within the design.
“Dark green cabinetry is a trend that became instantly popular in 2022 and it looks set to last, as many homeowners continue to bring the outside in with their color schemes and material choice,” explains Josie.
“Shaker-style painted door styles are perfect for shades of dark green. Their in-frame timber frontals highlight the natural beauty of this on-trend shade.’
“Dark green is the perfect palette for contrasting brushed metal hardware such as cabinet handles, sockets, switches, and lighting as well as a statement tap and standout sink. It also works beautifully with a reclaimed timber or stone floor.”
Dramatic black
(Image credit: Caesarstone)
As we touched on earlier the key trend for kitchen materials in 2023 is to air on the dark side. As a result, black kitchens are becoming more popular, with stone countertops and cabinets taking on an elegantly dark finish.
“We predict that we will be seeing a lot darker and in particular, black kitchens in 2023,” says Paul. “Used to evoke the feeling of drama and luxury, dark kitchens aid in an ultra-sleek and modern feel.”
“Dark colors are a rising trend in interior design,” agrees Mor. “Dark colors are bold and dramatic. They can have within them so many different nuances, tones, and tactilities that give them different characters. They can be basic or sophisticated, daring or elegant, industrial or classic, traditional or modern.”
What are the splashback trends for 2023?
“Often overlooked, the splashback is a prime opportunity to bring a sense of personality to the space,” says Dawn Filkins, head of creative, Smile Kitchens (opens in new tab). “Splashbacks are a versatile design element that provides an excellent opportunity to play with a pop of colour, continue the colour palette of the space or even introduce an element of zoning.”
The most popular splashback trends for 2023 include:
- Terrazzo: Terrazzo as a design has long been favored as the economical method of making use of an assortment of marble chips, glass, and resin fragments. This striking artisan look has been gaining a resurgence in popularity for 2023 for use on splashbacks to introduce subtle patterns and texture to any kitchen color scheme.
- Fluting: “Fluting and reeding is an excellent way to elevate practical areas of the kitchen that are often overlooked,” says Charlie. “Reeded quartz behind the sink is an excellent example, adding a fashionable flourish while remaining practical. Quartz is highly durable (avoiding scratches and chips) and non-porous so doesn’t require sealing. It’s also highly resistant to staining, making it a low-maintenance option.”
- Tiling: “Using tiles as a kitchen splashback is an exquisite way of displaying and accentuating their pattern, texture, and glaze,” says Diane Hyde, marketing manager at Craven Dunnill (opens in new tab). Highly reflective gloss tiles are also a great way to create a sense of space and openness. Whether you’re looking to go bold and dramatic or simple and classic, tiles come in a whole range of styles and designs to suit all types of homes.”
- Solid laminates: When looking for a highly practical yet visually pleasing splashback finish you can’t go far wrong with a solid laminate option. “Laminate splashbacks are an excellent budget-friendly option to transform a kitchen or utility space quickly and easily without the time and effort of tiling,” says Dawn. Available in a variety of different finishes and colors there’s a perfect fit for all kitchens.
