Classic but modern. Not the easiest combination to implement, is it? But framed fronts have never lost their popularity, so it’s clear that if you get them right, your kitchen furniture will look great. Recently, grey and kitchen furniture in every shade of grey have been a big part of the trend. What are the characteristics of this combination and how to design kitchen furniture in this style?
It’s all in the details
Framed fronts and grey tones, minimal design and cornices, stone surfaces and aged elements such as handles, light fittings and other small details. It’s the details that contribute to that classic feel in the room with a modern touch that you can feel, but immediately it’s hard to say exactly which element delivers what. But if you take a step back and look at the big picture, it’s clear that it doesn’t matter at all, it’s the overall design that counts, where each decor adds a little touch.
A balance between retro and modern
All the good things in life are found in harmony. The same applies to this style of kitchen furniture. The balance between old and new is immediately apparent. As we have just said, the details are very important, but these details need to be balanced. Too much of one and not enough of the other will result in neither. You need to find the right one of everything.
Grey relies on the rest of the interior
It’s not often that the kitchen is used as the main, eye-catching element in a home. With kitchen furniture in shades of grey, the opposite is true. The “badge” here is how seamlessly the kitchen is integrated into the rest of the interior. This is the main characteristic of grey. It doesn’t stand out, but it needs to be tastefully combined with other relatively neutral tones to achieve a truly cosy feel.
At the end of the year, more and more people want to renovate or design a new kitchen altogether. If you don’t want to follow bright, unusual trends, then a classic kitchen in the usual grey tones is just the thing for you!
