Lost your way in the field of options for your kitchen? Not up to date with some of the latest trends? This advice will put your kitchen renovation back on track! Spotted on www.hemnet.se,the images below helped us find a bunch of fresh ideas, interesting furnishings and lots combinations for kitchen design. Of course, what makes it even more complicated is that there’s no set rule to choosing materials and finishes. The other little things — lighting, fixtures, bar stools and hardware — can tie the look of the kitchen together. Again, less is more here. Kitchens of multiple materials and colors require a lot of finesse. Every project is different. But there are still some general guidelines that can help you make sense of your kitchen remodel. Kitchens are for more than just cooking — they’re a favorite room for talking, laughing, and sharing.

Choose a countertop that’s durable and easy to clean. For a bigger statement, go for stainless steel, zinc or natural wood. Aim for light, smooth and reflective materials. Large-format tiles or slabs of stone will minimize grout lines and create a smooth and easy-to-clean surface.

Look for light-colored cabinetry to keep the space open and bright, using other materials in small doses for visual depth and texture.

If the counters are rich and dark, go with a lighter backsplash. A monochromatic approach is great, but if the countertop is visually active, calm it down on the backsplash.

In this space, a handful of well-chosen necessities do the job without detracting from the minimalist aesthetic.
