Kitchen Design Ideas 2023
The world of kitchen design includes so many different elements, so where do you start?
You may be replacing an existing kitchen, adding a kitchen extension, or planning a new build home. During the process of deciding what type of work you need to be completed, your kitchen design will be the number one consideration for your room layouts.
Kitchen Design Ideas
Thankfully, today you have many sources to visit for kitchen design inspiration - Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Houzz, Interior magazines, and of course Google.
In isolation, the above options may not give you a complete picture of what designs are available in your particular location. We recommend using a combination of the above to research kitchen styles and ideas that you like, such as Pinterest, Instagram, Houzz - then search for companies that have completed similar projects or companies that manufacture bespoke kitchens that can replicate a style you like or design a kitchen that ticks all of the boxes required.
Kitchen Design & Open Plan Living
As the kitchen has become the focal point of a home we are seeing more complete living room and open-plan kitchen designs taking priority throughout the planning and kitchen design process. To compliment your new kitchen you should look at what other built-in furniture is needed for the space.
In the example below the kitchen island and living areas are designed as one with careful consideration for the additional media units, open shelving, and seating area. While they don’t have to be an exact match to the kitchen style, the colours, and finishes should work in harmony.

Modern Kitchen Design Ideas
Modern kitchens are characterised by their clean lines and minimalist design. They often feature discreet handles or no handles at all - handleless design. High-tech appliances, such as induction venting hobs allow you to position your hob anywhere in the kitchen design without the need for overhead extraction. Check out our post on BORA Hobs for more information on the XPURE models.
Modern Wood Kitchen Design
Here are some of the defining features of Modern Kitchens:
Modern kitchens are all about uncluttered lines and simple shapes. This is achieved through the use of frameless cabinets, slab or plain door fronts, and handle-free profiles.
Natural materials with eco-friendly credentials are gaining in popularity. Mixing real woods, natural stone countertops, and low or zero VOC paints are often used in modern kitchen designs. These materials add a touch of warmth and sophistication to the space.
Modern kitchens are designed to be functional and efficient. This means that the layout of the kitchen is well-organized and there is plenty of storage space.
