Dark colors will dominate in kitchen furnishings for 2024. Choose black or dark grey for your furniture, furnishing accessories and also for the walls (and perhaps creating a contrast with a lighter shade on the backsplash, the island or the worktops and shelves). This play of contrasting shades will help you increase the lumination and expand the space, especially in very small kitchens.
Dark colors from Nature
Dark blue and olive green will also be very popular in 2024. These natural and relaxing shades that will help create a more intimate and welcoming environment in the kitchen. Again, contrasts with lighter shades in strategic areas will help complete the look.
Low, warm lighting
Lighting will also play a fundamental role in kitchen furnishings for 2024: the preference will be for low, soft lights, accent lighting and even candlelight in appropriate spots. The use of a spotlight can also help complete your lighting needs in the kitchen.
Bright accessories
Finally, the use of "bright tools", utensils, fittings and accessories will be part of the new look for kitchens in 2024. For example, gold or copper handles (on kitchen cabinets), will add elegance and reflect the light. Stainless steel chandeliers and sinks will also help highlight the beauty of the dark tones while helping to illuminate the environment.
Are you ready for your new kitchen?
