The kitchen in a modern home is a focal spot for socializing and entertaining. One way to ensure it remains a comfortable place for hanging out as well as preparing meals is to update features that stand out for the wrong reasons. As the cabinets take up a large percentage of space in the room, start with them by implementing popular designs that will have a lot of staying power in the years ahead.

What Are the Most Popular Cabinet Trends of 2020?

1. Reclaimed & Warm Woods

Cabinets are perhaps the dominant feature of a kitchen, so they should complement or contrast the surrounding appliances and furniture in the room. Rough-hewn, reclaimed wood or pecky cypress will give your space a lot of texture to create a warm atmosphere or stand apart from the surrounding materials.

2. Brass Hardware

Some trends stick around for a while, and brass hinges, latches, and knobs certainly fit into this category. They add a touch of warmth to off-white cabinets and black appliances. In popular retro and farmhouse-style kitchens, they add to the era’s traditional aesthetic.  

3. Glass Fronts

When your dining ware can significantly add to your kitchen’s personality, find ways to show it off. Glass-front cabinets allow you to display their decorative or colorful traits without worrying about them getting dusty or covered in crumbs and cooking oil spatter.

4. Multiple or Two-Tone Colors

More homeowners are moving away from single paint colors and finishes. Instead, they’re livening up their kitchen spaces by using colors to create some contrast or highlight certain areas. For instance, accent the stove in your mostly white kitchen by surrounding it with blue cabinetry, or add some distinction by choosing white on top and grey on the bottom level.
