Kitchen Decor Trends 2023
Interior design trends take different forms, depending upon the room that you are decorating. For instance, some of the trends for your living room are not the same as how you might decorate the kitchen, as these rooms have different uses!
The kitchen, especially, is a room where you must keep function in mind first when you are decorating. Of course, we spend a lot of time in the kitchen, so we still want it to look stunning, too.
Take a look below for a roundup of some of the kitchen design trends for 2023 as well as some popular kitchen items!
KITCHEN DECOR ITEMS
We all love items in our kitchen to both be functional and look good too! Here are a few of what’s trending in kitchen decor in 2023.
Refillable Dispenser Bottles
When it comes to the kitchen, we want to choose decor items that are beautiful and fit the overall aesthetic but are still functional.
This is certainly not a space where we want to have any clutter!
Reusable glass dispenser bottles are a gorgeous way to store your liquid soap or lotion by the sink, making the kitchen seem just that more put together— rather than using a plastic bottle of Softsoap, for instance.
They are also eco-friendly, as you can have them refilled with the product at refilleries and do not have to buy soap in plastic bottles from the grocery store which makes them a practical choice!

Hand Towels
People are moving away from their old ratty hand towels and moving towards Turkish cotton hand towels. They are absorbent and dry much faster and will not leave that dirty wet towel smell that we all dread.
KITCHEN DESIGN TRENDS
Open Shelving
Open shelving in kitchens has been a popular trend in recent years. Open shelving refers to a kitchen design where there are no upper cabinets, and instead, dishes, cookware, and other kitchen items are stored on open shelves mounted on the wall. In the design world trend has become popular because it can make a kitchen feel more open and spacious, and it can also allow homeowners to showcase their favourite dishes, cookware and decor.
Additionally, open shelving can be a more affordable option than traditional kitchen cabinets, and it can be easier to access items on the shelves. However, it is important to note that open shelving does require more frequent cleaning and can be less practical for some homeowners who prefer more storage options.
Traditional Style Items
When we say traditional style items, we are talking vintage or pre-loved items! We are seeing a shift back to more rustic or cottage-type decor, so rather than a slick, shiny tabletop or piece of furniture, many homeowners are opting for pieces that look like they have been in the home for generations.
These could be vintage-inspired pieces or pieces that truly were found at a vintage or thrift shop!
Finding ways to honour old items, even in small doses such as a hand-carved wooden fruit bowl, is important in 2023.
Warm Colours
Colour is an easy way to update a space, such as your kitchen. You do not even have to repaint the kitchen walls if you do not want to— you can also opt to incorporate pops of the trending colour in decor items or hung artwork, or include in your cabinet doors instead. For 2023, we are seeing the resurgence of warm and off-white as well as beige tones for interior design.
White will not go away entirely, but it is time for a change! Pops of colour and the warm tones mentioned previously are leading the charge this year.
We will also see warm-toned wood cabinetry and saturated colours in both upper cabinets and base cabinets in the coming year.
Lighting as Works of Art
A current trend and must have when it comes to kitchen design is lighting. Light fixtures are no longer just for lighting, they are an element that inspires the rest of the room design and creates a beautiful visual interest and can also add drama to the living space. We’re seeing bold designs and more lighting fixtures that look like beautiful hanging art.
A good place to install lighting is above the kitchen island, which is generally centre of the kitchen. When it comes to kitchen design, natural light is also something that will continue to be on trend.
Minimalism
Minimalistic kitchens with clean lines, simple shapes, and minimal clutter have been on-trend for several years and may continue to be popular in 2023. Minimalism can be achieved by incorporating sleek and modern materials, such as stainless steel, concrete, or marble, and keeping decorative elements to a minimum.
Smart Technology
Smart technology: Smart kitchen technology has been on the rise in recent years and may continue to be popular in 2023. From touchless faucets to smart refrigerators, the incorporation of technology can make cooking and cleaning more convenient and efficient.
Bold Artwork
The kitchen artwork we are seeing for 2023 ascribes to the belief that less is more. We are seeing one or two pieces of artwork placed in the kitchen so that they do not make the space look too cluttered, and also have the maximum impact.
When choosing artwork, look for a few pieces that are bold and can stand on their own.
You do not want to get the mass-produced artwork you can find in most home goods stores— rather, search for something unique that shows personality!

What are the kitchen colours for 2023?
Kitchens in past years largely stuck to neutral colours, especially greys or whites. Often, these kitchens were monochromatic, meaning they were decorated in all the same colours.
This was usually white on white, with white walls, white cabinets, and white countertops, too.

White is not going away entirely and will still be a kitchen colour used in 2023, but it is being edged out in popularity by earth tones and warmer colour tones. Bold pops of colour will also be seen in some kitchens as accents to add more flair and give the kitchen space an eclectic vibe.
What is the interior designer decorating trends for 2023?
Design trends come and go in the world of interior decorating and design, and if you do not want to entirely redesign your space, you can incorporate the new trends in subtler ways, such as by switching out some of your smaller decor items.

In 2023, some of the decorating trends that we are beginning to see are bold colours, influences from the 1960s and 1970s, natural stone surfaces, and mixed metals.
After many years of open plan spaces, closed floor living plans are beginning to become more popular again, too.
What Colour is replacing GREY?
If you have been inside any home or apartment that has been built or decorated in recent years, you can’t have missed the reliance on the colour grey or other neutrals by builders and designers alike. Yes, as a neutral, grey is a great backdrop for many other colours as well as styles of decor.
However, after being used so much, it has become a bit boring. We are finally starting to move away from grey in interiors— though we will not see it gone entirely— and are starting to see new colours become more popular and replace grey.
The neutral that is replacing grey is beige, but we are also seeing more warm tones incorporated into interior design, too.
