How to Give Your Kitchen a Modern Makeover

Posted on November 28, 2017 by ben

Have you grown a bit bored with your kitchen? Does it look dated and uninspiring? If so, it’s time for a modern update! It’s important to love your kitchen and to enjoy spending time in it. After all, the last thing you want is for cooking dinner to feel like a bigger chore than it already is. With that in mind, read on to discover some modern design suggestions…

  • Update Your Worktops – If there is one way to give your kitchen a contemporary upgrade, it is to change your worktops. This can make a huge difference to the appearance and feel of your kitchen. You can contact World Stone for some professional assistance regarding the best type of worktops for your kitchen. Quartz worktops are a stylish and elegant choice, perfect for a modern home.
  • Change Your Lighting – Lighting can make a huge difference to the feel and ambiance in any room. It is advisable to use various methods of lighting so you can create the perfect atmosphere. After all, if you merely rely on one harsh overhead, it can be difficult to go about your tasks efficiently. Not to mention the headache it can give you! It’s always a good idea to add focus lights to your counters, as this will make food preparation a lot easier.
  • Steel Finishes – If you want to give your kitchen more of a professional finish, you should consider steel appliances and other finishes. This results in a modern and polished style.
  • Contrasting Color Tones – There is no denying that changing the color palette in any room can make a massive difference, and this is certainly the case when it comes to the kitchen. Contrasting colors will create a striking and modern appearance. Monochrome is the easiest color palette to start with; it is striking and you can’t go too wrong. However, if you are feeling a bit more adventurous, why not try incorporating a different color into the mixture? Maroon paint works beautifully when combined with brown and white cabinetry. You can use photographs online for inspiration.
  • Opt For All Black Fixtures – Another contemporary upgrade to consider is all black fixtures. This will give your kitchen a sleek, stylish and professional appearance. Not only is it a classic choice when it comes to kitchen cabinetry, but black is a lot easier to maintain too. Plus, if you do decide to switch up your kitchen again in the future, it is easy to make changes when black is the overriding color in the room. After all, every color goes with black, so the sky really is the limit.

So there you have it: plenty of different ways for you to give your kitchen a modern upgrade. From steel finishes to quartz worktops, it is all about finding something that works well for your current kitchen. You will be surprised by how much of a difference one change can make.

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
