Today we pick up where we left off with all our kitchen design trend predictions for 2025 and beyond. In Part 1 we discussed two tone kitchens and beautiful, bold Calacatta marble designs along with open shelving and bespoke designs.
Make sure you’ve caught up with the first six trends in Part 1 before reading on. Ready to be inspired and start planning your new, dream kitchen? Here’s where we left off…
One thing's for sure as we look into the future, kitchen islands are going nowhere and will continue to become more and more functional. In 2025, kitchen islands will evolve to become the true heart of the kitchen. Expect them to feature built-in seating, storage solutions, and even additional appliances like wine coolers or cooktops, making them essential and multifunctional components of the kitchen.
We all aspire to live in a highly organised space, free of clutter and busy worktops. After all, why go to the expense of beautiful, high-performance quartz worktops if you don’t have space to prepare and cook delicious food or see the stunning surfaces in all their glory.
Achieve a sleek and uncluttered look with streamlined storage and hidden organisation solutions. Concealed storage, pull-out pantries, and hidden compartments will become popular, with features like pop-up sockets, wine coolers or hidden utensil drawers integrated into worktops.
The future of kitchens encompasses smart technology that enhances convenience and efficiency. Features like voice-activated lighting, smart appliances, and AI-powered cooking assistants are becoming staples. Innovations like hidden charging stations and worktops with wireless charging will continue to trend, reflecting the shift towards a smart kitchen era.
For those with minimalist tastes, high-contrast combinations like black-and-white or all-black kitchens with striking white-veined stone quartz worktops offer a dramatic, modern look. These choices add a bold, sophisticated flair to any kitchen. Kitchen worktops we’ve seen look magnificent with black worktops include Aria White, Siena Gold, and let’s not forget one of our best sellers, Capri White.
Move away from sharp, rectangular forms with circular and organic shapes gaining popularity in 2025. Rounded kitchen islands, curved cabinetry, and custom-shaped worktops bring a softer, more inviting feel, transforming the kitchen into a welcoming haven.
Many of our customers have incorporated circular curves into their kitchen islands, not only creating a real focal point that feels bespoke and expensive, but also on a more practical level, far safer than sharp corners when it comes to little people running around the kitchen!
Together these trends blend functionality with aesthetics, encapsulating the desire for warmth, sustainability, and innovative design in the kitchen space. Whether you're planning a full renovation or simply updating a few elements, we hope these insights will help guide your vision for a stylish and future-forward kitchen.
