Top Kitchen & Bathroom Trends For 2021
A change is coming and 2021 is the perfect year to start fresh! Reliable General Contracting is here to help transform your home into your ultimate sanctuary and give you the space you've been dreaming of.
The two rooms that make a huge impact is your kitchen or bathroom. A smaller kitchen or bathroom remodeling project can include a new sink with backsplash and repainting your kitchen cabinets. Compared to a bigger renovation including new plumbing, flooring, lighting, and major upgrades to all appliances.
Let's start by breaking the renovation plan down into a few categories:
- Vanities & Countertops
- Appliances & Fixtures
- Lighting & Flooring
- Paint & Tile
What do you envision for your space? We will work with you on materials, but having an idea or image board with exactly what you're looking for will help jump start the planning process, giving us a more clear picture.
Here is a list we have pulled together for our area's favorite up-and-coming kitchen & bathroom trends for 2021 that you may want to consider!
Natural Finishes
Natural hardwood-style finishes fit the organic aesthetic that we are expecting to see more of in 2021. But that doesn’t necessarily mean wood-grain cabinetry and hardwood flooring. These natural wood finishes are mimicked in luxury vinyl tile and ceramic tile flooring that is durable, moisture and bacteria-resistant, and easy to clean. We install all depending on your taste, preference, and budget.
Color & Backsplashes
Over the past year, pops of color in the lower and island cabinetry have become an exciting trend in kitchen design along with more geometrical and colorful backsplashes. While subway tiles never seem to go out of style, many homeowners are taking on a bolder look to really personalize their space.
Recessed & Natural Light
Let there be light! Over the past year, we’ve seen more homeowners opting to incorporate larger windows or even opening up entire walls with newly installed paned doors, making the most of the natural light. We're also brightening up space with LED recessed ceiling lights and led task lighting under cabinetry and WOW does that make a difference!
Mixing Metals
The days of matching hardware and lighting in the same tones and textures are over! Mixing in metals have proven to create a balance of warm and cool tones in your kitchen or bathroom while making it more visually interesting too. We recommend choosing one dominant metal finish with an accent. A popular trend is mixing matte black metal with a natural wood finish or an industrial copper with clean and modern subway tiles.
Marbled Quartz
Both quartz and marble countertops can make a beautiful addition to your kitchen, but a quartz countertop will continue to look beautiful year after year, with little to no maintenance required. Marbled quartz seems to become more and more popular for kitchen countertops each year as it provides the duablity and look of luxury with a nice balance for the colorful and patterned backsplashes trending now.
