Kitchener Kitchen Trends For 2022

After a year working from home 2021 was regarded as the year of the sanity-saving kitchen.  Our kitchen space became the home’s command room, the place for meal prep, answering the never-ending zoom calls and hub to connect with friends and loved ones.  Being in our kitchens we tried to maximize every square foot of space in our homes so much so that the kitchen space ended up becoming the family room, the office, the birthday party and so much more.

2021 was a year of enlightenment and Kitchener kitchens and kitchens worldwide are finally getting the attention they deserve. Homeowners are looking at innovative ways to rediscover the utility that kitchens bring along with their future needs.  If the last two years were revolutionary, then 2022 has even more promise. Here are five key trends that we will see in 2022.

These trends aren’t limited to the rest of the world but are key trends we see in Kitchener kitchens.

Nature inspired wood blended materials have taken center stage

The Love Of All Things Organic

A new aesthetic is emerging where people have gone back to adoring the warmth and textures of natural materials. There is a rise in the use of organic materials, nature-inspired and environmentally conscious.

More and more people are discovering the relaxed outlook on their homes and want to feel comfortable indoors. The era of formal living rooms and natural and organic designs are going to take center stage.

People appreciate the blends of nature and want to incorporate these elements into the kitchen, which has now found significant importance in the home. People are working from home still and feel stressed. They want a kitchen that is not too busy, and the use of natural wood is a rising trend.

Upper shelves are more functional and help identify items easily

Rethinking Upper Cabinets

There’s nothing wrong with upper kitchen cabinets, but more and more people are coming to see their accessibility and simple utility. Homeowners are more interested in ditching bulky cabinetry and are heavily looking forward to open shelving or blending the two.

With the constant use of dining ware in the present times, it makes more practical sense to have dishes and other cutlery in places more accessible. With this in mind, the upper cabinets are set to take a back foot in the trends in 2022.

Large windows not only bring in light but also ventilation

Strong Outdoor Connections – Bringing the outdoors indoors

One key design element that we are seeing carrying through to 2022 will be the visual and physical connections to the outdoors. While staying at home for a significant part of 2020 and 2021.  People have developed a sense of appreciating nature and their surroundings, and want that calm and tranquility added into their Kitchener kitchen.

Expect kitchens to have bi-fold doors and more oversized windows, especially windows that almost sit on the countertop to bring in the outdoor view. These windows aren’t just for simple aesthetics but also bring in ventilation and fresh air flow.

The Island in the kitchen have now become more resourceful than ever.

Extra Large Over sized Islands
