Hottest Kitchen Cabinet Trends for 2021

#1: Reclaimed Kitchen Cabinets

If you are on a budget one of the best options is to use reclaimed kitchen cabinets. Rather than replacing your cabinets and you have good handcraft skills, you could even renovate your existing cabinet yourself to save even more money, and it is more eco-friendly than buying new ones.

#2: Open Shelving

One of the rising trends of kitchen cabinet designs in 2021 is open shelving. These are the perfect solution if you’re struggling for space in your kitchen. It is a big change as it is a concept that has only recently taken off. As well as small kitchens it looks great in farmhouse kitchens so if you are fed up with your cabinet doors always coming off their hinges, this is the perfect solution.

#3: Mixed Cabinet Styles

Over the last few years, one of the most popular trends is to use two-toned cabinets and this trend looks like it will continue for the next few years. It works by matching different two-toned cabinets that make it unique and stand out. If not carried out correctly, however, it can make your kitchen feel disjointed.

#4: Glass Panel Kitchen Cabinets

If you are wanting to give an illusion that your kitchen is larger, glass panel kitchen cabinets can help provide this. This type of style works well in kitchens that are bright and light as the glass panels help display your kitchen utensils and glassware in a presentable manner.

#5: Slab Door Cabinets

One of the sleekest and modern kitchen cabinet doors is slab. There you will find in the homes of the rich and famous as they can make a kitchen look stunning. They do not have any door handles and are instead opened with a simple touch. More often than not they are finished in a glossy style giving them a minimalist design look.

#6: Transitional Kitchen Cabinets

If you are a fan of mixing old along with new, then transitional kitchen cabinets are for you. They do just that and if done correctly can provide a way of combining modern and traditional design. These are a great option if you want to update your kitchen without having to replace everything.

#7: Floor-to-Ceiling Cabinetry

If you have a large family to feed you are going to need all of the cabinet space you can find. The best solution for this is follow-to-ceiling cabinetry. These create huge spaces where you can store everything you will need for a large family and they also look great. They only work in large kitchens so if you have a small space, they are not the best option.

#8: Copper Kitchen Cabinets

One big trend for kitchens in 2021 is the use of copper which is a trend that went out of fashion but recently it has come back with a bang. The whole cabinet is not made of copper but is accessorized by the use of copper handles or frames. It can bring a traditional and modern feel to most kitchens.

#9: Bold Cabinet Fixtures

Copper fixtures like the above can add class and tradition to a kitchen, bold cabinet fixtures, however, provide a contemporary modern design. They tend to be brightly colored and have big knobs and handles. This trend is not as popular as it used to be.

#10: Straight Line Handle Cabinet

Handle styles of kitchen cabinets have changed over the years and now most new cabinets have no handles or knobs. One fashion trend, however, is the return of handles in the form of straight-line instead of round. These tend to be made out of material such as nickel or steel and can make a big improvement on old-fashioned handles.

Final Thoughts

Last year saw a record number of people spending money on their homes. This was led by the pandemic as without being able to go out, there was no better time to make home improvements. If you are going to be making big changes make sure you plan and budget every cost well in advance as there is nothing worse than living in a house with a half-finished kitchen, trust me I have done it myself.
