1. Let There Be LIGHT Light-filled kitchen trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Elizabeth L.

All kitchen trends of 2023 are moving toward lighter and brighter spaces. So, whatever the design or final look, the room will be full of sunlight. That said, maximizing light has been a popular kitchen trend for a while. However, huge windows, light hues, and reflective matte materials will boost the glow even more in the coming years.

2. Think Kitchen Hood  White kitchen trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Melissa T.

Whether minimalist or traditional, a cooker hood makes a statement. These designs promise fun and creative ways to highlight the kitchen hood. But in the same way, kitchen remodel ideas for 2023 also lean towards minimal and integrated styles. These seem invisible, especially in forward-thinking traditional and online kitchen designs.

3. Family Focus  2023 kitchen trends by Decorilla designer, Wanda P.

Comfy, cozy spaces with enough seating for family take precedence in residential designs. However, balancing comfort and style is vital to the family-friendly spaces of the future. Moreover, the four-pawed family members also get a spot. Improved kitchen islands come with neatly built-in pet-feeding stations. These are great as a fitting to a kitchen island or in a side cabinet.

4. Mini High-End  Kitchen paint colors 2023 by Decorilla designer, Kristina B

Short-term rentals, especially for quick getaways, are getting a luxe makeover. Creating a small bespoke interior increases the appeal of your vacation rental, without a doubt. But it also makes sticking to a kitchen remodel guide easy. A corner of cabinets topped off with statement finishes are all you need for a small-scale luxe kitchen. 

5. Ecocentric Design Top eco kitchen trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Anna Y.

Expect to see an increase in organic, eco-friendly green design. Plastic, unless recycled, is out, and natural, sustainably sourced materials are in. With a heightened awareness of the environmental impact of design, the green movement is sure to stay. To follow suit, opt for ethically sourced and eco-friendly materials. 

Enriching Kitchen Remodel Ideas 2023   Kitchen remodel ideas of 2023 in a luxe basement interior by Decorilla designer, Meric S.

The kitchen makes a decisive impact on a home’s buyability. In fact, potential buyers might not consider a house if they dislike the kitchen. Beyond increasing your property’s resale value, an updated interior will also be more enjoyable during its daily use.   

6. Diversify Materials

Two-tone wood kitchens are gaining popularity, but it’s more than contrast that makes it appealing. Kitchen remodel ideas for 2023 predict an increase in multi-material kitchens. This means wood, stone, and ceramics will sit alongside new and upcoming mediums. The result will certainly be visually and texturally pleasing. 

7. Space-Saving Cupboard Kitchen 

In 2023, kitchen trends are making the most of compact interiors. Highly populated metropolises are always in need of space-saving and innovative designs. As a result, stowaway kitchens have become popular in tight spaces. This means a room can have more than one function.

A wood shutter, like in the room above, can cover a bed during the day and slide over to cover the kitchen at night. These designs are so sleek and minimal that they fit into a standard built-in cupboard. So, if you want to renovate, consider one of the up-and-coming space-smart alternatives.

8. Vintage Revival   Cottage-inspired kitchen remodel ideas for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Liana S.

Make the most of what you have. Gut renovations are not necessarily key to your kitchen revamp in the next few years. Some styles, like cottage design, are making a comeback, which means you can simply modernize other details. With this in mind, lighting and cabinets always have a great potential to update an interior.  

9. Use an Ex-Show Kitchen  Stunning show kitchen featuring sink trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Marya W.

Buying a second-hand kitchen is becoming possible thanks to ex-showroom designs. You can purchase a complete kitchen that is at the forefront of what’s trending. In this way, you’ll keep costs low as well as reuse products. It’s a financially-wise and environmentally friendly option.

Grounding Kitchen Countertop Trends 2023   Kitchen countertop trends 2023 by Decorilla designer, Sonia C.

Non-toxic surfaces are imperative to a healthy kitchen environment. Countertops range from solid natural stone, marble, wood, and metals. Many of these options look great next to the top kitchen hardware trends of 2023.   

10. Full of Character

Kitchen design and countertop trends for 2023 allow more personalization than ever. If it’s not cabinets or wall color, surfaces can add character to the interior. Although we have new options every year, it looks like the design world is moving to neutral, calming designs with a pop of interest here and there. A deeply veined countertop could be just the thing your space needs in 2023.

11. Jewelry-Box Terrazzo  Colorful kitchen featuring countertop trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Aida A.

Terrazzo adds a unique look to interiors. They’re available in tile format, big-scale for floors, backsplashes, and countertops. It can take on exactly the look you want while reusing chips of other building materials, like glass and marble.

For this reason, it’s an eco-friendly choice and becoming more popular as our green awareness improves. Plus, its versatility will match any kitchen cabinet color trends of 2023 and beyond.

12. New Steel All-steel kitchen featuring countertop trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Rajna S.

Minimal yet welcoming stainless-steel kitchen cabinets make some of the most attractive trends of 2023. Moreover, it’s not only the counter but the entire kitchen that can get a full-metal treatment. Yet, they come with a twist. Brushed, mirrored, laser-printed, and matte finishes will give more variety and suit a range of interior styles.

Kitchen Paint Colors Splash into 2023  Blue kitchen paint colors of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Selma A.

Even the smallest kitchen remodel can benefit from paint colors for 2023. Besides, a fresh coat of color can change the complete feel of the interior. It can turn a bland space into one that energizes and inspires.   

13. Matte Black Kitchen  Black kitchen paint colors hot in 2023 by Decorilla designer, Shasta P.

Black is more than a deep contrasting base or accent shade. With a diversity of finishes and materials in the darkest hue, you can create a layered interior using only black. That said, black still stands out most set against a contrasting color. Plus, kitchen paint colors in 2023 will have dozens of attractive black tints. They could also make a blissful neutral picture when mixed with woody tones.

14. Olive Green Kitchen  Olive kitchen paint colors for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Erin R.

A gentle olive hue will be a delightful alternative for interior lovers who prefer more neutral green in their homes. As one of the earthy kitchen paint colors of 2023, it leans to the warmer spectrum while pairing exceptionally well with white or black. That said, a cool combo with gray or a colorful mix with terracotta could make an unforgettable space.  

15. Warming Vanilla

Milky latte or spiced vanilla hues match whereto design is moving – natural and uncomplicated spaces. They’re sure to give an interior a refreshing yet warming glow. Plus, the neutral tone is great for making the most of kitchen backsplash trends in 2023.

Keep the design simple and splash out with a contrasting or bright color next to the stovetop. It won’t only pack a small but powerful punch, but also allow an easy change when the time comes for an update.

Refining Kitchen Decor Ideas 2023   Neoclassical kitchen decor ideas for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Rajna S.

The finishing touches matter. They certainly round off an interior’s hard edges. And kitchen décor ideas for 2023 are set to tastefully enhance the space without overpowering the overall look and feel.

16. Art Magnified Artwork dominates kitchen decor ideas in 2023 by Decorilla designer, Drew F.

Few but bold decorative elements are the secret ingredients of future kitchens. Expect oversize artwork or a feature sculpture to steal the show in these interiors soon. Art isn’t just easy to incorporate with kitchen remodel ideas, it also works well with the top cabinet color trends for 2023. 

17. Something Quirky

Homes are set on regaining a sense of fun. Likewise, the kitchen gets a playful touch. This could come in the form of a set of spritely bonsai trees, sculptures that immortalize a humble toy dinosaur, or a large (but pretty) rock. Whatever puts a smile on your face can have a spot in the kitchen – even a whacky sink befitting the trend of 2023 will do!

18. Backsplash Talks  Kitchen decor and backsplash trends 2023 by Decorilla designer, Samantha S.

Designer kitchen backsplash trends make a comeback in 2023. The renewed focus includes more Art Deco style designs as well as heat and moisture-resistant wallpaper. The latter also opens a modish world to tenants or those who want to try something new before committing to a renovation.

If wallpaper is for you, be sure to seal it with an extra layer of protection. Non-toxic water-based matte varnish will do the job. 

19. A Bit of Bling Shimmering kitchen décor ideas for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Jessica D.

If not wood, then metallics should add warmth to an interior. Copper, bronze, and gold are among the favorites for décor finishes in the coming years. Shimmery vases, bowls, light shades, and hardware can spice up your design. The hue will certainly add a cozy-hug feeling, especially in colder spaces full of marble. Moreover, metallics go well with kitchen cabinet color trends for 2023.

Warming Kitchen Lighting Trends 2023   Layered kitchen lighting trends of 2023 by Decorilla designer, Darya N.

It’s no secret that light profoundly impacts the look and feel of an interior (and an exterior, as a matter of fact). It’s a crucial element that can make the difference between meh and wow! Moreover, proper lighting design makes the most of a kitchen and helps us use it to the fullest. Plus, they can make kitchen hardware trends shine even more in 2023.

20. Asymmetric Lighting Trends for 2023

Aspiring kitchen lighting trends pave the way to stunning spaces in 2023. Asymmetrical pendant designs will create intriguing features in the interiors of tomorrow. More experimentation with lighting design promises eye candy beyond what we know. Indeed, the future looks bright! 

21. New Silhouettes  Contemporary kitchen lighting trends for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Mena H.

There is so much to look forward to, particularly when it comes to kitchen lighting trends of 2023. Innovative ideas bring new, unexpected shapes and forms into being. What this means for interiors is we’ll be able to explore the scale and detail of lighting, from floor to ceiling lights and everything in between.

Minimalist line chandeliers and oversized pendants are sure to fit the sleek kitchen appliance trends of 2023 too! 

23. Traditional with a Twist New vintage kitchen lighting trends for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Erin R.

Beloved lampshades feature higher up than the typical floor or table lamp. Expect to see globe pendants with petticoat shades and horn or empire-style shades dress new chandeliers. These lighting trends fit in with the revival of cottage-style and English country interiors.    

24. Bubble Fever Molecular kitchen lighting trends for 2023 by Decorilla designer, Laura A.

Bubble lights have had a moment in preceding years, with the Molecule light taking center stage. But these globes are gaining popularity as lighting designers dive into their creativity. So expect many more bubbles dazzling kitchens and beyond for years to come.

12 Kitchen Design Trends Going Away In 2023

Kitchens are getting closed and dark

A beautifully designed kitchen is essential for several reasons. Primarily, it is the space where we spend the most amount of time with family, cooking, eating, or even working. It's also important to keep in mind that the right kitchen can add to the resale value of a home.

While all-white and farmhouse-style kitchens have been popular for almost too many years now (blame the pandemic or supply chains for this one), homeowners, designers, and developers are finally starting to see kitchen styles evolve. Elements that were once “must haves” have become “no mores.” Here are twelve kitchen design trends going away in 2023, according to experts and interior designers.

All-White Kitchens

All white kitchens are over

Los Angles real estate broker Lori Levine Harris of Brock and Lori tells me, “All white everything is on its way out. For the past decade, we’ve been seeing white walls, white tile, and Carrera marble. People are tired of these muted palettes, and designers are bringing in color— which we love.”

Most designers also agree that white-on-white kitchens will look dated in 2023. So what color will be the new white? There isn’t just one answer here. Alice Arterberry and Barrett Cooke of Arterberry Cooke believe the newest kitchens will have two or three contrasting, complementary shades. “Monochromatic kitchens lack depth and visual interest. Complementary hues in a kitchen can elevate the area while still being timeless.”

Interior designer Kirsten Blazek of a1000xBetter sees dark wood cabinetry making a comeback. “For many years now white oak cabinets were dominating kitchen design but I think that era is ending and we are going to start seeing more saturated palettes in kitchen design. The correct darker brown cabinet is timeless and can be mixed with so many other fantastic finishes.”

Open Kitchens

Open floor plans and particularly open kitchens are controversial topics in the design world right now. While it’s a practical choice for some, many homeowners have grown tired of this design choice in a post-pandemic world. Harris’ clients have been asking to close up their kitchen walls. “Especially for families, people no longer want to see dirty dishes and boxes of cereal while they eat dinner or entertain. We have clients with open floor plans who are building walls to separate their kitchens from their dining rooms. This more traditional style is coming back with the kitchen, dining room, and sitting room all compartmentalized. It allows you to curate a unique space.”

Matte Black Hardware

Matte black hardware is so 2022

While matte black hardware was everywhere in 2022, expect to see less of it in 2023. “We have the flippers to thank for this one. Matte black hardware never really appealed to me but I do understand that for some they appreciate matte black’s minimalist nature and darker tones when opting for a more handsome look,” says interior designer Sara Weichel of Swike.

So what’s a good alternative? Weichel recommends considering oil-rubbed bronze for a more updated look. She also predicts we will see more polished nickel and chrome in the coming year.

Upper Cabinetry

Upper Cabinets are done

The days of standard closed upper cabinets are starting to dwindle and will be replaced by open shelving. Sapna Aggarwal of Bungalowe tells me, “Upper cabinets are going away. Beautifully styled open shelving is here to stay. Doing away with upper cabinets is a great way to save money and create an opportunity to show off your personality by creating beautifully styled vignettes.”

But doing this right also means keeping it edited and uncluttered. “Our clients are very into hiding everything from dishes to appliances. Gone are the days of ceramics and cookbooks on display —the minimal, uncluttered look is in. Cookbooks belong in the pantry and appliances are hidden by cabinetry to obtain a zen, uncluttered look,” says Harris.

Faux Finishes

2023 is all about keeping it real in the kitchen, according to Lauren Cherkas, President and Chief Sales Officer of Artistic Tile. “Faux anything [such as quartz that looks like marble] is definitely a kitchen trend going away for the luxury consumer in 2023. For the discerning client, natural stone for floors, countertops, and backsplash is the only way to go. It is a classic look for the kitchen that transcends trends.”

Cherkas also believes these finishes will serve homeowners better in the long run. “With its longevity, it is also a sustainable choice. With minimal maintenance, it can outlast much of the other elements in a kitchen.

Herringbone Backsplashes

Kitchens won't look like this next year

Herringbone backsplashes fell back into favor around the time herringbone flooring did a few years ago, but according to Christopher Peacock, founder and CEO of Christopher Peacock, this style’s days are numbered. “Herringbone patterns are good for a floor, but not so much for a backsplash as it can get too busy, and you need a large area to appreciate it fully.”

Carrera Marble

Carrera marble is overdone

This is another hot topic because Carrera marble, while beautiful and beloved by almost everybody, has become almost annoyingly omnipresent. So, in 2023, we’re likely to see a lot less of it. Peacock thinks homeowners can do better. “I believe Carrera is overused and classic Carrera has changed so much now it’s hard to find a good slab. It’s not for me, unless I can find a nice piece that has a lot of white in it. There are so many white marbles, but they are super expensive, so Carrera can be good for a budget, but it’s not considered as beautiful as other white marbles out there.

Appliances Over The Range

Move the microwave

Installing a microwave over the range has been the standard for years, but now that standard is changing. “Just say no to putting appliances over the range. Making a fabulous design feature out of the space above your range far outweighs the utilitarian trend of using that area to house an appliance. Some people might say it's a shame not to claim this upper cabinet section for added storage or for an appliance,” says Tamarra Younis of Union Of The Art Interiors.

Contemporary Aesthetics

We'll see less contemporary kitchens in 2023

HGTV star and interior designer Francesca Grace of Francesca Grace Home shares organic kitchen aesthetics are beginning to look dated. “As a maximalist, I tend to stay away from neutral palettes and I think we're going to be seeing a lot more color in the kitchen in 2023. Think lots of rich colored hues, like dark greens, blacks, and blues, even merlot colored cabinets, with countertops with more character, like beautifully veined marble.

Farmhouse-Style Kitchens

Farmhouse kitchens are finally going away

Live, laugh, and love that farmhouse-style kitchens will no longer be on-trend in 2023 “We've all seen them over and over again and it's time this style gets a revamp, which can be easily done. This is a trend that has started to become basic. We want to see more character and personality in a kitchen and I think we'll be seeing a lot of that in the future,” says Grace.

Tile Backsplashes

Say bye to tile

Arterberry and Cooke tell me that patterned tile backsplashes are beginning to become less preferable. “Patterned or mosaic wall tile can create a busy aesthetic and look dysfunctional. Opt for a solid slab stone to match the countertops for a calm, simple look. You can also have fun with cabinetry paint colors [instead].”

Cold, Ultra Modern Designs

Cold kitchens are starting to warm up

Renata Vasconez and Samantha Gallacher, co-founders IG Workshop predict cold modern elements such as glossy finishes and sharp edges will be replaced by warmer, cozier styles. “Kitchens are now cozier and warmer, designers are staying away from glossy finishes and sharp edges. We are looking at curved islands, wood tones, and interesting use of textures. Honed and leathered stones are replacing the glossy slabs, and more daring colors have been incorporated in the designs.”

1. Single space

Design: Natalia Vasilyeva

You won’t surprise anyone with a combined kitchen-living room - a fashion trend has long passed into the category of classics. The concept of a single space within which you can cook, communicate with family or friends, work and relax is firmly established both in the minds of people and in the layouts of new apartments. More and more euro-twos and euro-threes are appearing - this is housing designed according to European canons, where the bedrooms are made small and isolated, and up to 50% of the area is allocated for a spacious kitchen-living room, where all life is in full swing. nine0003

What is important to consider when decorating such a space?
