Whether you’ve grown bored with your existing kitchen design or just moved into a new home and want to add a few personalized touches to the space, everyone needs to refresh their kitchen once in a while. Luckily, there are several changes you can easily make without starting from scratch. From installing new lighting to replacing the cabinets, here’s how to give the room an unforgettable upgrade.

How to Revamp Your Kitchen

1. Add New Hardware

Replacing the existing knobs and drawer pulls is a quick and effective way to change the look of the room. For example, modern pulls are typically sleek, straightforward, rectangular, and made with materials like steel and chrome. By contrast, vintage-inspired knobs and pulls are usually more elaborately designed. You may find materials like glass, porcelain, and antique brass that add character to the kitchen.

2. Change the Cabinets

If your goal is to change the overall appearance of the kitchen, try replacing the cabinets. Opt for light colors if the space is small and you want to give it a larger, more open look. Darker shades lend spaces a dramatic, sophisticated look. Consider other elements in the kitchen, like the countertops and floors, as well. If you don’t plan to change those, opt for cabinetry that pairs well with them.

3. Replace the Lighting

Brightening the room with new lights is a subtle way to make a big change. Think about installing a feature that’s unlike your existing setup. Suspending a chandelier over the island adds an unexpected focal point. It also softens the tone of the room and adds some warmth to an otherwise practical layout. Pendant lights have a similar effect. If the kitchen is large, you might add a few wall sconces to serve as task or accent lighting.
