Kitchen Design Styles

Transitional

A balance of modern and traditional looks that come together in the most pleasing way describes the timeless elegance of transitional design.  Blending old with new, masculine with feminine,  creates a fresh look that’s easy to love, easy to live.

Hallmarks of transitional design include:

• Neutral colors

• Tone on tone color palettes

• Contrast in tone and texture

• Minimal accessories

Contemporary

Contemporary, by definition,  is in the moment--what is happening right now in design. Constantly evolving, with filtered focus on a variety of global styles, contemporary design is fairly ambiguous and doesn’t refer to a specific period of time.

Aspects of transitional design include:

• Neutral palettes

• Clean lines

• Organic silhouettes

• Stark minimalism

Traditional

Also defined as classic; traditional design is nothing if not predictable. Featuring European influence from the 18th and 19th centuries, timeless elements exemplify elegance and comfort in today’s home.

Characteristics of traditional design include:

• Mid-tone to deep rich wood finishes

• Detailed wood work

• Carved mouldings

• Symmetrical lines
