Kitchen Design Trends in 2025
As we come towards the end of the year, we thought this was the perfect opportunity to look back at the top kitchen design trends in 2025! We’ve whittled it down to 4 of our favourites, giving you some inspiration for your new kitchen.
As time goes on, we’ve seen trends come and go, and come back again. There’s been plenty of interesting design concepts over the past year, which made picking our top spots even harder. However, we’ve finally managed to come to a decision, and these are our results…
Statement splashback
Firstly, one trend we can definitely get behind is a bold statement splashback. This is a great way to bring colour to the space and create a lively feel. The opportunities here are endless! Colour, tile styles and patterns, as well as textures, can all influence the look of the overall design and need to be chosen carefully. In 2025, we’ve specifically seen a lot of green and orange accents used within the kitchen. These are both great paired with more neutral tones, such as grey or ecru, on the cabinets.
Hidden functionality
Furthermore, our next trend of the year is hidden functionality within kitchens. We all love a good storage solution, and these new secret storage designs are the perfect way to remove clutter and keep your kitchen organised! Some of our top styles include the hidden pantry, pocket doors for coffee stations, and smaller drawers inside larger ones. These help create space and leave you more room to utilise your kitchen.
Mixing materials
Additionally, another trend that stood out to us was the mixing of textures and materials. This could be on cabinets, worktops, splashbacks, flooring, stools, or shelves. Some popular textures from 2025 include ribbed, grainy, and matte. These all create interest and give a focal point to the room, whilst adding a touch of luxury. We liked how these subtle alterations could make such a big difference!
In conjunction with this, a mixture of materials can also create a similar effect. The kitchen is the perfect place to experiment with a wide range of materials, including wood, metals, stone, gloss surfaces, and mirrors. The various materials can come together and work in unison, whilst also creating a kitchen with character.
Statement lighting
Lastly, our final contender for trend of the year is statement lighting. Whether it is a bold single light fitting or under-cabinet strips, lighting can significantly alter the mood you set. In 2025, we’ve seen a range of options within kitchen lights, but our standout designs include: cluster arrangements, oversized shades, and warm temperature bulbs. Each gives a different vibe, but all create the wow factor.
