Contemporary kitchens

Although every kitchen is different, there are design traits that are evident in all contemporary fitted kitchens. So if you want your contemporary kitchen to really stand out, you should stick to these design traits.

Open plan

Many contemporary kitchens use the open plan layout style to create a room that is multi-purposes, stylish, and practical. To make this work, zonal areas are necessary. Cooking, eating and lounging will each benefit from their own individual zone with a subtle division. In this kitchen layout, the kitchen island is not only incredibly stylish, but also incredibly practical. This is because the island itself can act as the room division. For more information about open plan kitchens check out our guide.

Reflective surfaces

One of the most important parts of a contemporary kitchen is the emphasis on light and space. For this reason, the surfaces in contemporary fitted kitchens are shiny and reflective. Glossy cabinets and worktops reflect the light in the contemporary kitchen and coupled with stainless steel, this is incredibly aesthetically pleasing.
