Kitchen Design Trends | Modern & Timeless Styles
Designing a new kitchen can feel overwhelming. At Renovogue, Danni believes the key to a successful kitchen design starts with understanding your needs, vision and budget. Your kitchen should be functional, suit your family's lifestyle, stand the test of time and be visually stunning.
Not one style suits every client, which is why it's important to work with a professional kitchen designer who can tailor the design to your specific space and preferences.
The Modern Kitchen Look
The modern kitchen is open, functional and free from unnecessary decoration. This clean, minimal and understated style is sophisticated with an abundance of hidden storage.
Key features of modern kitchens:
Stone benchtops and splashbacks — Applying Caesarstone or similar to both the island bench and splashback creates a streamlined, classy and timeless look
Contrasting finishes — Matt dark floors paired with glossy white cabinetry make a kitchen feel spacious and appealing
Handleless cabinetry — Clean lines with no visible hardware
Integrated appliances — A seamless, uncluttered appearance

Industrial Style Kitchens
For those who prefer an edgier look, the industrial style kitchen offers a modern alternative.
Features of industrial kitchens:
Stainless steel benchtops — Easy to maintain, extremely hygienic and resistant to fingermarks
Exposed elements — Raw materials and metal finishes
Open shelving — Display your favourite items
Bold lighting — Statement pendants and task lighting

The Importance of Lighting
Lighting is crucial in any kitchen. If your space doesn't receive enough natural light, consider installing a skylight — it can create a real wow factor and transform the feel of the room.
Lighting tips:
Task lighting — Under-cabinet lights for food preparation
Ambient lighting — Overhead lights for general illumination
Feature lighting — Pendants over islands or dining areas
Natural light — Maximise windows and consider skylights
