8 Tipos de cocina que dan luz a tus ideas 

 

Kitchens are represented in all trends, from the most elegant to those inspired by nature. New kitchen designs offer a wide range of proposals covering all styles of interior design.

As a space that is part of the home, the kitchen must balance function and emotion. It should not just be functional, since emotions are part of the home and the kitchen is at its very core.

Choosing between the latest trends in kitchens is not always easy. Here, you will find 8 types of kitchen that will shed some light on your ideas.

 

KITCHENS FOR CALM 

 

Beige, grey, cream and terracotta shades give kitchens a feeling of tranquility. This type of kitchen space is simple in appearance, with no high-sounding details, featuring pleasant and tactile materials such as marble, stone or satin-finished wood.

Matt or semi-matt pastel colors, paired with muted metallic accessories in charcoal black bring a discreet decorative point to the overall atmosphere.

As for ceramics, we can find models especially designed to create spaces that invite calmness in the Emotional Care  trend. 

 

PHOTOGENIC KITCHENS 

 

Stylish kitchens have a contemporary luxurious look, which is consistent with the rise of the sophisticated home.

Blackened colors, deep blues, browns or greys are combined with materials such as warm oak, polished metals and opaque glass which add reflections. Combinations of matt and gloss, shadow play and backlit furniture bring a high-end feel to the space.

POSITIVE KITCHENS 

 

As consumers become more daring in designing their own kitchens, there are colorful proposals ready to configure spaces where positivism take the leading role. The market offers a wide range of colorful proposals to create uplifting designs with single colors, or combined in pairs. It is important to choose products and colors that will stand the test of time.

Positive kitchens are based on the use of spot colors in the furniture. Ceramic is responsible for providing plots with a high design load. If you like color, Euphoric is your trend. 

 

CREATIVE KITCHENS 

 

Personalization as a trend also reaches the kitchen. The increasing desire to participate in the creation of spaces means that these are adopting a personal style, with artistic elements combined with simple surfaces to give prominence to the furniture and its accessories. Brands offer the possibility of being able to combine various color ranges in the creation of the design. The idea of artistic intervention contributes an extra element of creativity and emotion.

METAL KITCHENS 

 

Gold is emerging as a luxury finish for kitchen design. Large metal and mirrored surfaces bring light and reflections to smaller spaces.

Brass or polished gold metal are widely used in this trend. Ceramic brings many versions in different formats and textures, from brushed or tarnished finishes to liquid or high gloss.

Metal is highly decorative but at the same time it is difficult to maintain. Ceramic with a metallic look is equally decorative but it provides much more performance. In the trends for ceramic surfaces we propose resistant porcelain metals which, however, do not lose their point of sophistication. Find your inspiration at Elegant & Refined.

KITCHENS WITH MARBLE 

 

Authentic kitchens display materials in their most natural state, showing their natural patterns or veins. In wood, the naturalness of the grain or knots is a value-adding element, as well as the plots or texture of stone or marble.

In terms of color, the most contemporary touch is provided by the combination of black and white in maximum contrast.

THE NEO-INDUSTRIAL KITCHEN 

 

Kitchens in industrial design have shifted slightly towards a more rectilinear style with more angular shapes, whereas furniture features brushed steel fronts and cement-like surfaces. Metals contrast with wood, marble, stone or concrete to give a touch of warmth to the overall design.

Rounded edges offer a retro look and are replaced by angular, geometric shapes that are much more contemporary. This type of kitchen requires high-tech appliances and smart home features to provide a much more professional feel.

THE RUSTIC KITCHEN 

 

Rustic kitchens with weathered surfaces and weathered marks are ideal for conveying a sense of home and family. Untreated natural materials that retain rustic wood grain and weathered terracotta will work well with concrete to bring it closer to a more contemporary style.

Allowing the color of the materials to develop over time will give the space consistency in terms of the overall color of the space.
