Personalized Cabinet Designs

Brisbane kitchen cabinets, like many others around the world, had undertaken many changes in step with the changes in people’s tastes through the years combined with advanced technology. The combination gives rise to a wide variety of styles. In 2019, the general trend seems to lean towards personalization.

Brisbane kitchen cabinets had outgrown the old idea of just storage. It is now an essential element to your kitchen remodel.  Cabinetry brings everything together.  Cabinet design may not have changed much for some years now but the following are some of the evolutions it had undergone.

Open shelving

Open shelves look good in magazines but not necessarily suited to the tastes of most homeowners. However, a really good organization and the right kind of shelves can create a really unique style for your kitchen. 

Open shelving also has some benefits. It introduces a light and airy feeling and the illusion of more space.

It is also efficient since you can see and grab what you need without having to open anything. It also presents how your every utensil, bowl or glass has an impact on the overall aesthetic of your kitchen look.

Color customization

These days, homeowners are not satisfied with cookie-cutter designs. They want something unique which builds character and personality or provide a bold statement.

Color is one of the most effective ways to attract eyes. For instance, a different color of paint on your cabinets can make a difference. Manufacturers are also taking notice. They have teamed up with paint companies to provide a limitless array of colors for inspiration.

In cabinetry, homeowners favor customized colors that perfectly fit their kitchen spaces. The big favorites now are neutral colors with tones like grey, yellow and soft green. Black, navy, and emerald green also has high-end allure many want.

Oak wood trending

There is a comeback of oak wood into the Brisbane kitchen cabinets. They were the rage of cabinet materials in the 70s and the early 90s. Later, there was a rise in the preference of maple, cherry and engineered wood alternatives.

Oak wood is coming back into the kitchen (and bathroom fixtures). The appeal now rests on neutral colors, dimensions and textures and layered into any space creating a blended balance.

Clean aesthetics

In recent years, the modernization wave had influenced home décor as well. One of the adopted influences is the clean aesthetics in cabinetry construction. This minimalism trend is likely to continue for some time.

Modern cabinets are now free from ornate design work seen in traditional cabinet door styles. Even the handles come in low profile styles, not demanding any attention.

In essence, all the clutter has been pared down to the bare minimum. The type works perfectly with a modern styled kitchen, complementing the other components *countertops, backsplash).

Multiple finish colors

Created by technology, today’s homeowners have almost an endless list of cabinet finish colors and techniques, making it almost mind-boggling. One trend is mixing different finish colors for a completely unique look.

One can have the upper cabinets finished in painted white while the base cabinetry is a natural wood color.
