Is your kitchen outdated? Does it resemble the set of The Brady Bunch? Or maybe it’s just in need of a spruce-up? Well, you’ve come to the right place to learn about the latest trends in kitchen remodeling. Check out these fresh ideas for 2013.
-Dark or white cabinetry. Light woods are out right now. If you’re looking for a contemporary vibe, consider going to one extreme or the other for your cabinets.
-Big islands. Got a small kitchen? You can benefit from this trend because you’ll score extra counter space. “If you have a kitchen that is just too small, you can always get a butcher’s block or a smaller cart on wheels and use these as pseudo islands,” advises an article on realtybiznews.com.
-Ceramic or porcelain countertops. Looking for a less expensive option than granite? Consider one of these two trending materials. You can order countertops that look like stone, wood or even fabric. “These also are very heat-resistant so you can set a pot or pan right on them when you are cooking and not have to worry about ruining them at all,” the article says.
-Stainless steel appliances. You’ve probably caught on to this trend. But they’re still hot, hot, hot! They’re sleek, modern, they don’t rust or start to look old, and they’re easy to wipe down. Consider a stainless-steel fridge, oven or even coffee pot.
