The Latest Kitchen Trends From Europe

Latest Kitchen Design Trends from Holland and Northern Germany

I’ve recently returned from a short visit to Holland and Northern Germany, where I explored the latest trends in kitchen design. Here are four key observations I’m excited to share with our clients:

1. The Continued Popularity of Greys

Greys remain a dominant choice in kitchen design. Whether in hardwood flooring, wall paint, kitchen cabinets, or countertops, this versatile color continues to capture attention and is a favorite among homeowners.

2. Emphasis on Contemporary and Minimalist Styles

Contemporary design and minimalist styles are stronger than ever in Holland and Germany. These approaches focus on clean lines, functional layouts, and a sense of spaciousness, making them ideal for modern living.

3. Blending Spaces: Extending Colors and Textures

A notable trend is the design community’s inclination to extend colors and textures from the kitchen into adjacent living spaces. This creates a cohesive look throughout the home, enhancing the overall aesthetic and flow of the design.

4. The Rise of Ceramic Countertops

Ceramic countertops are gaining popularity in the European market. Known for their exceptional durability and stain resistance, they offer both style and practicality. We have a ceramic countertop example in our latest display—come in to touch and feel this innovative material in person!
