Kitchen Remodeling Joy

Modern and contemporary designs and motifs have increased among homeowners in Denver Colorado. Modern design offers clean lines, open floor plans, and a clutter-free pallet.  They often feature natural materials such as stone, quartz, and solid wood frameless cabinets. Color options for modern kitchens are almost limitless, allowing homeowners in the Denver / Colorado Springs area to push the envelope and make distinctive and personal design statements.

Contemporary & Modern Kitchen Design

A potential downside to a modern design is the look and feel.  Some modern designs can appear to be cold and austere.  That’s not a problem if you have a designer from JM Kitchen & Bath Design.  There are numerous ways we can show homeowners in Denver how they can add warmth and bring joy to a modern motif.  Many modern kitchens feature vivid contrasts and that’s one strategy for softening the edges of a modern kitchen.  Wood tables and chairs and cabinet knobs or even a countertop caddy that holds wooden spoons, spatulas, and other utensils can create a different vibe.

The Role of Color

Color plays a huge role in how a kitchen looks and feels. Lighter colors evoke a sense of calm. White is associated with purity and cleanliness.  Yellow is associated with sunlight that offers a sense of welcome, cheerfulness, and energy. Green equates to plants and grasses.  Another option to introduce color into a modern kitchen is to upholster your kitchen chairs.  Fabric brings color, texture and comfort to your kitchen.  Other ways to introduce fabrics into your kitchen color pallet include window coverings, dish towels, and display napkins.

Shapes in Your Kitchen

Shapes play a role in bringing more serenity and joy to a kitchen.  The sharp edges of a contemporary design can be softened with a round table, round bar stools, and round light fixtures.  A number of homeowners in soften their kitchen spaces by hanging favorite works of art or displaying pottery, colored glassware and ceramics.  Additionally, growing herbs on a windowsill or bringing plants into your kitchen is another easy way to add color and a sense of calm and joy. This kitchen brings texture with the island stools, upholstered chairs and rug in the breakfast nook and round shapes with the island lights contrasting with the geometric patterns in the nook lights.
