Cabinets, Counters & Lighting Remodel

When it comes to remodeling your kitchen, decorating ideas can make or break your project's overall feel and functionality. At Kitchens By Design (KBD), we've gathered ten trending kitchen decorating ideas that seamlessly blend aesthetics with practicality, featuring stylish cabinetry, striking countertops, and impactful lighting solutions from our partners at Elite Stone Fabrication (ESF) and Illuminate Lighting.

1. Open Shelving for Style and Convenience Open shelves are a hot trend offering easy access to daily items while providing opportunities to showcase stylish dish ware or decorative pieces. Pair open shelving with KBD's custom cabinetry to create an elegant yet functional design.
2. Striking Quartz Countertops Quartz remains a top choice for countertops due to its durability, beauty, and low maintenance. Elite Stone Fabrication offers quartz options in various patterns and hues, ensuring a luxurious finish that complements your cabinetry and overall kitchen design.
3. Statement Lighting Fixtures Illuminate Lighting suggests bold pendant lights or dramatic chandeliers to instantly elevate your kitchen’s style. These fixtures provide essential illumination while becoming eye-catching focal points in your kitchen.
4. Mixed Metals for Modern Elegance Combining different metallic finishes—like brass handles, chrome faucets, and matte black fixtures—creates visual interest and modern sophistication. This subtle but stylish decorating trend makes your kitchen feel fresh and contemporary.
5. Bold Backsplashes Make a statement with your backsplash by opting for bold, colorful tiles or sophisticated patterns. From geometric designs to traditional subway tiles laid in unconventional patterns, an expressive backsplash from KBD adds personality and charm.
6. Integrated Appliances Appliances seamlessly integrated into cabinetry are trending, offering sleek lines and cohesive aesthetics. KBD's custom cabinetry solutions beautifully hide appliances, ensuring your kitchen maintains a clean, clutter-free appearance.
7. Multifunctional Kitchen Islands A well-designed kitchen island provides more than additional workspace. Incorporate seating, storage, and built-in appliances to maximize your island’s functionality. KBD can customize islands tailored precisely to your family’s lifestyle needs.
8. Two-Tone Cabinetry Embrace visual depth and contrast by using two-tone cabinetry—light upper cabinets with darker bases, or vibrant island colors paired with neutral tones. KBD specializes in creating custom cabinetry finishes that match your personal style perfectly.
9. Natural Wood Accents Natural wood brings warmth and timeless appeal to contemporary kitchens. Incorporate wooden beams, barstools, or cabinet fronts for an organic touch. Paired with stone countertops from ESF, this look creates a balanced and inviting atmosphere.
10. Smart Kitchen Storage Solutions Incorporate clever storage solutions like pull-out drawers, hidden compartments, and built-in pantry organizers. These thoughtful details by KBD maximize space and enhance daily functionality, making cooking and entertaining effortless.
