The longer you live in your current house, the more you may find yourself itching to improve it. Up to 61% of homeowners who have lived in their homes for longer than six years choose to renovate rather than move, and the most popular chosen renovation is the kitchen.

From open floor plans to vibrant color combinations, the kitchen remodeling trends expected to take off between 2020 and 2021 are worth taking inspiration from. Here are some of the top kitchen renovation trends you can expect to see within the next year.

  1. Mixed materials. Home remodel designers are beginning to see traditional kitchen designs make way for a new trend involving mixed materials. The traditional kitchen typically involves using one metal, texture, and finish throughout the entire room. Mixing materials such as colored tiles and concrete or woodblock countertops and matte black metal hardware adds visual interest to the kitchen. There's also a greater emphasis on natural materials to create a very contemporary, authentic look to the space.

  2. Wood laminate flooring. Speaking of natural materials, hardwood floors have increasingly made their way into the modern kitchen thanks to open concept designs. Unfortunately, hardwood floors aren't as water-resistant as we'd like them to be. The wood laminate trend is expected to fix this problem, delivering all the luxury aesthetic of natural wood but with the added benefit of water-resistance for additional functionality.

  3. Fun-colored appliances. Home remodel designers are seeing homeowners increasingly invest in kitchen appliances that not only meet their functional needs but also their emotional needs in terms of design. According to the Pantone Color Institute, many people are buying appliances for their color, softness, and overall design. Think of the way a soft blue refrigerator with vintage details makes you feel versus a stainless steel refrigerator. These fun and functional details help you feel happier to be in your own home.

  4. Accented open shelving. Bare spaces on the walls are beginning to be filled with open shelving as a way to display colorful dishes, artwork, and quirky knick-knacks that show off homeowners' personality and style. The kitchen is typically where families spend much of their time cooking, dining, and entertaining. Open shelving in certain parts of the kitchen create an accented area where people can showcase their own distinct design.
