Planning a kitchen renovation or redesign in 2024? It’s clear that the mood in design trends are for streamlined kitchens that will make life easier, move seamlessly and feel less chaotic. Designers are going for a smoother look from warm rich colours to high drama marble and stone, to communal eat-in kitchens, with some textured reeded glass thrown in there – these are the trends we predict for 2024 …
UNDERSTATED LIGHTING
There is a noticeable move away from bold pendant lights over kitchen islands and dining areas, and we are starting to see the celebration of integrated under-cabinet and toe-kick lighting that is functional and that will also produce a gorgeous glow in the room. This can be seen in this Noel Dempsey kitchen, in which there is a pronounced toe-kick lighting strip and lighting under the cabinets. www.noeldempsey.com
LAYERED LIGHTING
In the same vein as understated lighting, layered lighting will be a big trend in 2024. Sconces on the wall are seriously trending, as are countertop lamps. The more (carefully placed) atmospheric light sources there are, the more charming and inviting your kitchen will feel. www.britishstandardcupboards.co.uk
WARM-TONED COLOUR
Designers are moving away from white kitchens and are turning towards warmer, darker colour palettes. An aubergine shade is always lovely, or maroon, dark green, and especially tobacco brown. They are all set to be trending next year. www.jamesmayhomes.com
HIGH DRAMA MARBLE AND STONE
Natural materials, such as marble and stone are on the rise for countertops, flooring and splashbacks in kitchens for 2024 – particularly dark marble slabs or those with dramatic veins. These sustainably made or sourced materials are a great design choice for your kitchen. They look fabulous, are durable and can often be a better environmental choice. Dominant marble, stone countertops or splashbacks will define the look of your kitchen as well as the use of the rest of space. You will kick off 2024 with a bang with one of these wow-worthy kitchens. www.marmomac.com
BUTLER’S PANTRIES (OR REALLY SMART STORAGE)
Butler’s pantries have always been useful and of course the more storage you have in your kitchen the better! The butler’s pantry is great for decluttering your main kitchen space and therefore – it would seem – your mind. Of course, having a side room is by no means attainable for everyone but sensible storage that suits you will always be a priority. Whether you like open shelving, reeded glass or floor-to-ceiling cabinets, find the system that works for you. www.sincerelymariedesigns.com
REEDED GLASS
Reeded or fluted glass in cabinets has been becoming increasingly popular. It adds depth and texture to a room while also looking seriously chic. Paired with any cabinet colour, from deep navy to shades of beige, reeded glass is a versatile and stylish design choice. www.kamdesign.co.uk
COMMUNAL KITCHEN-DINERS
The kitchen-diner is trending, and it makes sense for the way we live now. It is a seriously social way to design your kitchen – if you have the space of course. It means you can move quickly from your food prep station to eating at the table. Alternatively someone can keep you company as you prepare food on the work surfaces. This kitchen is owned by a couple who are avid entertainers and they wanted their new kitchen space to accommodate seating for up to eight people (as well as a bar area for making cocktails). This sort of design is great for serial party hosts or for a family style space. www.davonport.com
