Warmer, more comfortable, and always more practical, we happily spend time with family or friends. And because we now consider it a real reception room, new development solutions have recently multiplied.

First, with new materials, colors, and lines that renew its decorative codes. But also by technology that improves our culinary prowess as much as our daily comfort. In this room, more than any other in the house, new things are constantly appearing so that it is not always easy to stay up to date. So what does the ideal kitchen look like in 2020? We decipher for you the main kitchen design trends recently identified on the market this year:
The black kitchen is a hit
If there is one kitchen in which to invest in 2020, this is it: the black kitchen. As it has a rather lovable reputation, the dark kitchen has invaded the pages of magazines and catalogs of kitchen designers. This dazzling success it owes to a strong return of less is more and a desire for purity in our interiors. The black kitchen displays significant advantages such as being able to marry as well with chic materials (marble in mind) as rustic (wood) and thus offers many combinations to make this room of life a highly chic place.
Stone backsplash
The wall coverings between the counter and the cabinets have been a trend for some time. The novelty of 2020 is the backsplashes of a single granite or marble plate that look like an extension of the counter. In addition to the beauty and sophisticated appearance that ensures the kitchen, this trend is an ally in maintaining the cleanliness of the environment.
Minimalism
There is no going back; minimalism is here to stay in all aspects of kitchen design. A kitchen with little content, but with well-finished and harmonious furniture provides a feeling of serenity and cleanliness. Minimalism does not mean, however, that the kitchen needs to be all white. Sober tones, or even rustic wood, can make the environment more welcoming. Thus, a minimalist wooden kitchen is a trend for 2020.
Tables extend the central island
Directly integrated into the central island, the dining table can also be attached to it, extend it, or even enclose itself inside it. Retractable or fixed, it is, in any case, more and more often associated with the island. This is a design trend in 2020 that adds fluidity to the separation of spaces. At the same height, lower or even above, the table may not necessarily be of the same material as the island, as long as it fits well into the atmosphere and allows it to extend its centrality. Finally, there is a return of the benches for a friendly and authentic sitting arrangement.
Monochrome colors to enhance the kitchen
If white has always been a safe bet in the kitchen, black has established itself as a serious competition as earlier highlighted. Likewise, if gloss is still the majority, matt facades are gaining more and more ground. So in 2020, the kitchen is playing the monochrome look card with elegant and sometimes unexpected colors like old rose, terracotta, or khaki green. All these and many more colors are currently invading kitchen catalogs and are also very attractive.
Wood triumphs again in the kitchen
If we had to retain only one material for our kitchens in 2020, it would undoubtedly be wood, which corresponds perfectly to the trend of a return to naturalness. Raw, with visible veins, it is used on the front of storage furniture, and on the ground. Thanks to the development of a laminate that perfectly imitates solid wood, both in sight and in touch, it is easy to dress your kitchen without breaking the bank. But it is also fashionable to mix it with other materials, which are also rather raw. Kitchen designers, therefore readily add a touch of marble, concrete, slate, oxidized metal, or even leather to their current creations, the authentic style of which retains some industrial accents.
Professional equipment becomes fundamental in the kitchen
With the success of cooking shows, the general public has discovered many utensils and devices used by professionals. Galvanized by the gustatory prowess of which they are capable, many individuals today equip themselves with kitchen utensils that are up to the task. Designer hood, 6-burner stove (or more), wine or cheese cellar, ice cream maker or steamer, the range of products is endless, provided that quality is at the rendezvous. This comes as a great kitchen trend in 2020.
In conclusion, the modern lifestyle and changes in family dynamics have transformed the kitchen, which used to be seen as a purely functional environment in the heart of the house. Amid the routine, it is in the kitchen that families find time to share moments together during the preparation and consumption of meals. These special occasions deserve a truly warm and cozy atmosphere, and that's what the kitchen decor trends for 2020 are all about.
