Timeless Elements
Country-inspired styles have stood the test of time and remained popular for the past few decades. This traditional design of cabinets are usually found in natural grain stained in walnut, mahogany or just painted in off-white to lend a formal elegance to the kitchen. Pair them with brass fixtures, glass inserts and granite worktops to complete the look. Sturdy, clean lines of with embellished trim and elaborate handles or knobs are also part and parcel of this warm and welcoming style.

Modern Movement
One of the main attributes of contemporary cabinets consists of clean architectural lines that comes with minimal decorative touches. To achieve this sleek and streamlined, aim for handlesless or flush cabinets, glossy surfaces, glass splashbacks and monochromatic hues combined with stainless steel appliances. Alternatively, this style can be achieved with veneers or laminates in a wide array of colours.

Beauty In Small Packages
Not everyone has the luxury of a big house so don’t feel hampered if your home only allows very minimal space for a kitchen. Opt for compact cabinet placement and built-in shelves to add functional space without compromising on appeal. Use light colours to visually expand the kitchen and stay away from bulky appliances if possible.
