When it comes to a kitchen remodel, you have a lot of choices to make. You have to select everything from cabinets to flooring to countertops to layout to wall colors. It can be a lot and many people look at current kitchen remodeling trends to help them decide which choices to make. If you are completing a kitchen remodel, check out these current kitchen ideas.

Modern, Contemporary Kitchens

When it comes to kitchens, one of the hottest trends that is emerging is modern, contemporary kitchens. Kitchens feature a contemporary design and a color palette featuring clean lines, rich neutral colors and metal and glass finishes. Modern and contemporary kitchens used to be hot in large cities, but now you can find this style being more prominent in farm cities and country towns as well. It is believed that modern and contemporary kitchens will remain popular with homeowners for years to come.

Big Islands

Big islands are another trend that is emerging in kitchen remodels. Big islands are trendy for a few reasons. First off, a large island is incredibly functional. You can use the space to prepare a meal, or you can add stools and use the space for eating in the kitchen. Islands are also trendy because they create more storage. An island typically has cabinets or space in the lower portion of the island where you can store small kitchen appliances or pots and pans.

Commercial-Grade or Chef Appliances

If you want to create the best meals at home, you may need top-of-the-line appliances. Commercial grade appliances, also called chef appliances, are very popular with homeowners. Not only can they increase the value of your home and your kitchen, but they can also help you create meals that taste like they are right out of a high-end restaurant. Many commercial-grade appliances also have unique features, such as a quick boil feature, that can make cooking easier for you.

Unique Cabinets

The final feature that is currently trending when it comes to kitchens is unique cabinetry. One of the more unique trends is mixed colored cabinets, as well as uniquely colored cabinets. For example, a home may have dark brown lower cabinets and navy blue upper cabinets. Black and white mixed cabinets are also a trendy kitchen option. Another unique cabinet trend that is emerging is concealed cabinetry. Concealed cabinetry can help to hide your spice rack, your trash can and even your wine cooler. Cabinetry is even being used to hide large appliances, such as a fridge or dishwasher.
