We all know that kitchens with traditional style get a lot of attention these days, but the requests for more modern, clean-lined kitchens are pouring in as well! Let’s have a look at the modern kitchen decoration ideas to get some inspiration for your kitchen remodeling project.
Modern kitchens have a more sleek, simple appearance without a lot of fuss and over decoration. Emphasis is placed on the materials and forms more than anything else. When decorating your modern-style kitchen, consider that so the design looks cohesive, and your accessory choices don’t compete with the rest of the kitchen. Here are a few tips on how to decorate a modern-style kitchen.
Sleek And Shiny Kitchen Decoration
It’s not necessarily an accessory, but the cabinet hardware is a central element in a modern kitchen and will complete the kitchen design. The proper hardware must be selected; otherwise, the style may not come together as one would hope.
Cabinet hardware that is linear and has lacked detail is the perfect choice for a modern kitchen. Bar style pulls are commonly used in this style of kitchen. Polished chrome and polished nickel finishes add a little shine to space. We recommend selecting hardware that is long and spans the distance of the cabinet face. Modern kitchens always have a linear quality, and having longer pulls will emphasize the perpendicular lines of the cabinetry.
Lighting is Key
Lighting is where you can have some fun in the kitchen design and let the modern style shine! There are so many different choices when it comes to lighting, and we always love to see the fixtures our customers select. Some institutions are small and sleek; others are large and make a statement in the space. The choice is really up to you. It is still essential to keep in mind that the fixture shouldn’t have a lot of detail and ornamentation.
Don’t Shy Away from Color
Modern kitchens are all black and white. It adds so much interest by adding a pop of color. You can add color by painting an accent wall, a colorful bowl to hold fruit, or even some of your appliances, like one of our customers did below.
Kitchen Decoration Ideas That Bring Nature In
Modern kitchens always have a natural, organic element to them. It could be adding a few rich wood cutting boards along the countertop to add warmth to the kitchen or adding a tall, simple floral centerpiece in the middle of the kitchen island. Both are simple ways to bring the outside into space.
