<p><strong>1. Bold Stone</strong></p>
<p>We are seeing bold choices in stone, gone are the days of Carerra Marble and white stone everywhere. We are seeing stones with rich burgundy and pink tones, like the much loved Viola Calcutta. In general the most popular new stones have more veining and pattern. The selection of an impactful stone should be the base of any kitchen design, so don't be afraid!</p>
<p><strong>2. Deeper Richer Timbers</strong></p>

<p>There is movement away from lighter oaks and all white kitchens. While they will always be popular, the use of Walnuts and more smokey timbers are starting to be seen a lot more. Deeper moodier palettes are definitely having a resurgence. </p>
<p><strong>3. Pops of Colour</strong></p>

<p>Pops of colour on cabinetry, splash-backs and in stone are prevalent in many of our favourite recent projects. Being creative with the colour palette and mixing colour pops with timbers, stone, concrete and more organic materials is creating some of the most iconic kitchens. </p>
<p><strong>4. Classic Twists</strong></p>

<p>We are seeing fluted marble and traditional curved stone edging and some modern takes on the traditional shaker and bolection mould cabinet door profiles. </p>

<p><strong>5. Mixing Materials</strong></p>
<p>Using combinations of materials to add a variety of textures is still our favourite way to add interest into a kitchen. Today we are seeing a beautiful mix of stone and plaster, timber, and mixed metals on handles and tapware. And unexpected mix can really lift a space. </p>
<p><strong>6. Creative Hidden Storage</strong></p>
<p>Hidden appliance cupboards and second hidden sink areas are starting to replace to butlers kitchens. This is a fabulous trend for those who don't want to be stuck in a butlers area but still have the ability close off the mess and clutter. Or for those smaller spaces. </p>
<p><strong>7. Built in Dining</strong></p>

<p>Islands are becoming more creative in their shape and function. Don't limit yourself to just the standard breakfast bar. We are seeing islands drop down to incorporate a second dining area or function as intimate banquet seating. The space should be able to bring people together, so make it fit for your household. </p>",
