K&B Design Trends in Canada TREND:The streamlined kitchenDESIGNER INTERPRETATION:"Design trends are reflecting our more casual and collaborative method of living, preparing, cooking, eating and entertaining. Integrated appliances like drawer-style fridges, and fridges, ovens, microwaves and dishwashers fronted to match the cabinetry, all give a much cleaner look to the kitchen. We can now hide most of the ‘operations,' and our kitchens look a lot neater and simpler. Although this has been around for a while in Europe, and in higher-end kitchens, most manufacturers are now catching-on," says says Céline Pitre, principal at Vancouver-basedCéline Pitre Interiors. 1/5/2020 3
K&B Design Trends in Canada TREND:Mixing and matching with stained-wood and painted-wood cabinetryDESIGNER INTERPRETATION:"It's no longer just a stained-wood kitchen or a painted kitchen. We are starting to use stained wood and paint in the same kitchen. But not just any regular stain and paint: We're using grey-wash stain on walnut cabinetry, mixed with white shelves," says Alicia Sass, partner and senior designer atCarey Mudford Interior Design, in Toronto. 1/5/2020 4
K&B Design Trends in Canada TREND: Mixed materialsDESIGNER INTERPRETATION:"I love the austere palette of high-gloss white floors, stainless-steel appliances and countertops, with modern natural wood cabinetry. The combination is warm and welcoming rather than sleek and impersonal," says Lynda Felton, a Toronto-based stylist and co-founder of the online style magazineCovet Garden. 1/5/2020 5
K&B Design Trends in Canada TREND: Lighter and brighter kitchensDESIGNER INTERPRETATION:"Colourpalettes are moving away from dark colours and paneling to medium and light to lighter finishes and veneers. To achieve this lighter, more contemporary look, details are being simplified, materials are getting pared-down, colours are lighter and brighter, and textures are softer," says Céline. 1/5/2020 6
