Kitchen trends of 2025

As we step into 2025, the kitchen space continues to evolve beyond its role as a place for meal prep – it’s now the heart of the home.

This year’s kitchen design reflects a strong push toward smart technology, including smart refrigerators, app-controlled lighting and enhanced energy efficiency. As well as the introduction into bolder colour palettes, bringing personality into the home and creating a space that you feel happy with for years to come. If your client is thinking of giving their kitchen a new lease of life, take some inspiration from these trends.

Bold colours for the win

2025 is all about the bold, expressive colour palettes that make a statement.
Homeowners are looking to move away from the all-white kitchen style and embrace the colours that bring warmth, personality and drama. Unexpected pops of colour including deep earthy greens and burnt oranges can be used in accent walls, bar stools and tilework to add a sense of individuality, perfect for family gatherings and special occasions.

Blending style & function

One of the standout trends in 2025 kitchen design is the move towards open and highly functional spaces. Open shelving is continuing to gain traction, especially in modern open plan kitchens. Homeowners are opting for a mix of cabinets and floating shelves to add texture and contrast and a breathable feel especially in smaller spaces.
Custom cabinetry is also on the rise, with modular inserts being designed to fit individual cooking styles including corner carousels, slide-out chopping board stations and built in food waste bins.

A metal moment

When it comes to metals, homeowners shouldn’t be afraid to experiment. In the kitchen space, it is more about creating layers of visual interest than matching everything perfectly. Intentional mixing can include brass handles with black faucets or stainless appliances with warm lighting, creating visual harmony.
