What’s Trending for Luxury Modern Kitchen Designs in 2023-24?
Trending designs for luxury kitchens this year include a lot of out-of-the-box ideas for Indian kitchen setups in terms of materials, finishes, styles and overall functionality. Modern interior design ideas are leaning towards elegant kitchen designs that introduce glass doors, seamless finishes, kitchen islands and more into an Indian luxury kitchen setup.
Let’s dive into some details!
#1: Dark Colours Say Elegant Luxury Modern Kitchen Designs
Using colour to your advantage is trending in 2023, but in a different way than you might think. Introducing darker colours to create a backsplash of tones for your contemporary luxury kitchen can be just the modernised idea you have been looking for. Creating the perfect accent with the simplest of tools is one luxury kitchen design idea you can’t go wrong with.
Additionally, if you can open up your kitchen space to ample natural light, nothing tops that. Look at this ground floor luxury modern kitchen idea with a direct view of a garden. The natural light brightens up the deep dark tones of the kitchen, bringing it all together.
#2: Seamless Finishes for a Plush Look
Create some drama with the finishes in your luxury contemporary kitchen. A custom standard marble finish coordinating beautifully with the wooden finish of the cabinets in the kitchen creates a lovely combination. This is especially true with regard to the contrast it creates with your appliances.
This luxury modern kitchen design elegantly sports a marble-stained wall and an island converted into a personal compact dining area while the wooden finish creates a cohesive style of its own.
#3: Cozy Vibes With a Kitchen Table
A cosy vibe is not only reserved for a personal space like the bedroom. Your modern luxe kitchen can have that too. Pair up the wooden finishes of the flooring and the cabinets with a pastel-coloured hood to create a two-dimensional accentuation of your kitchen.
The top view of the window adds to the beautiful vibe of a modern Indian luxurious household and the statement lights hanging down above the table simply create a striking impact.
#4: An In-house Wine Cabinet
One out-of-the-box luxury kitchen design idea is to have a wine cabinet in your kitchen. Custom spaced and styled with a wooden finish that directly contrasts with the whitewashed stylish contemporary interiors of this luxury kitchen, a wine cabinet is a perfect way to to be plush!
Moreover, if you’re going to go with the clutter-free minimalist design for your kitchen like shown in the picture, a wine cabinet is just what you need to add a touch of your own and step out of the typical idea.
#5: A Bar-like Design with Open Storage and Counter Seating
Luxury modern kitchen designs with open storage space and a bar-like setting is always a winner. The best part about open storage space is that it does not necessarily create visual clutter. In fact, if you’re organised enough, the open storage space gives your kitchen quite the visual appeal. Additionally, a counter with dark finishes and bar stools can give you the aesthetic you’re most comfortable in, and isn’t that what designing every space actually means?
#6: Luxury Modern Kitchen Designs That Will Dazzle You
Colours play a vital role in creating a modern luxury kitchen. While shades like blue and gold exude luxury, using too much of it will look over-the-top. To avoid this, choose a neutral palette for your kitchen and add gold and blue accents. For some drame, go for patterns on your walls and counters.
#7: An Open Modern Kitchen in Blue Denotes Luxury
Homeowners these days generally prefer open kitchens due to the convenience they offer. Additionally, well-designed open kitchens can also improve the aesthetic appeal of your home. For instance, this kitchen in a deep blue colour creates a striking effect. The yellow ceiling and statement lighting add to the overall glam effect.
#8: Modern Luxury Kitchen Ideas With a View
When it comes to modern kitchen designs, this one screams luxury! While black isn’t a very common choice for Indian kitchens, the use of gold-veined black marble for the breakfast counter and flooring maximises the glam effect. In addition, the open shelving ensures convenience while the floor-to-ceiling windows guarantee you’ll never be bored cooking!
#9: Lighting Can Add a Touch of Luxury
The matte black cabinets in this expensive modern kitchen looks striking, especially combined with the pure white island. Additionally, the patterned backsplash and flooring help in adding texture. However, the highlight of this kitchen is the pair of pendant lights above the island, which takes this kitchen from stunning to royal.
#10: Luscious Shades of Brown in This Island Kitchen
Nothing screams luxury like an island kitchen! Combined with a rich shade like brown and seamless, handleless cabinetry, this modern kitchen is the epitome of luxury.
