One of today’s most popular kitchen styles is transitional. Keep reading to discover its main characteristics.
Dominated by Neutrals
Transitional kitchens are ideal for homeowners who enjoy having a calm-looking space. To achieve this style in your kitchen remodel, implement a neutral color scheme in your space. Besides white and beige, you can also go with shades of gray and brown.
Minimal Decor
You won’t find many decorative elements in a transitional kitchen. It works with nearly all architectural styles, thanks to its mix of traditional and contemporary elements. Instead of glossy finishes, go with matte and satin paint options. Usually, doors and drawers are paneled and clean, and practical lines are prioritized over lavish adornments.
Shaker Cabinets
Shaker cabinets are great for transitional spaces because they complement classic and contemporary elements. They are highly attractive despite their simplicity. Select a minimal design featuring square doors with an inset panel. You can go with a wood finish. However, choose a matte finish if you prefer to have the cabinets painted.
Wood Flooring
Wood will add warmth and a homey feel to the heart of your home. Plank-style wood flooring is the most preferred choice in transitional kitchens. Both dark and light wood will elevate the look of your space.
Good Lighting
Every kitchen requires good lighting. You want lights that can deliver different brightness levels in this part of your home. For meal prep and cooking, you need shadow-free task lighting. Atmospheric lighting accentuates the best features of your kitchen and helps with ambiance. Pendants are great because they can illuminate your space, give it more appeal and separate the dining area from the work zones.
Quartz Countertops
Many homeowners prefer quartz countertops because they are attractive and easy to maintain. This material also withstands heat well and excels in durability. It’s completely non-porous, making it a hygienic and safer option for your family.
