TOP KITCHEN TRENDS 2025

THE SCANDI KITCHEN REVIVAL – BUT WITH EARTHY DEPTH

Minimalism is going nowhere in 2025, but it’s now getting warmer. Say goodbye to cold, clinical finishes and hello to Scandi kitchen design with a bold twist.

“Contemporary Scandinavian styles are still going strong, but now we’re seeing them dressed in rich, earthy colours like umber and forest green,” explains NKBCo. “These tones pair beautifully with mid-tone wood cabinetry and natural stone worktops for a look that’s modern but grounded.”

Whether you’re planning a full renovation or a style refresh, these bold neutrals add instant sophistication.

FROM TRADITIONAL TO ART DECO INFLUENCE

Love a classic country kitchen with a modern edge? You’ll love this year’s biggest aesthetic shift.

“Traditional kitchen furniture is evolving,” says NKBCo’s senior designer. “We’re seeing more Art Deco-inspired details – think geometric lines, luxurious finishes and striking colour palettes – blending with timeless layouts.”

The result? A kitchen that feels both nostalgic and cutting-edge, perfect if you want something really unique.

ENTERING THE SMART KITCHEN ERA

Tech has transformed the kitchen – and we’re here for it. Think wi-fi enabled applicances that can be controlled by apps, steam and combination ovens, flex-induction hobs and multi-functional Quooker taps that are now essentials rather than luxuries.

“Smart technology is now the future of kitchens. Our customers love the instant boiling, chilled and sparkling water taps,” says NKBCo. “They’re not just time-savers – they look incredible too.”

And with sleek venting hobs and matt black finishes dominating modern kitchen design, the future really does look smart.

STATEMENT SURFACES: WORKTOPS AND SPLASHBACKS

Neutral kitchens are still seen everywhere, but 2025 is giving bold surfaces the spotlight.

“Customers are asking for dramatic stone splashbacks and unique worktops that really make a statement,” the NKBCo team says. “It’s a great way to inject personality into your space without overwhelming the whole design.”

SAGE GREEN SERENITY

One colour we’re obsessed with? Sage green.

It’s calming, stylish and works beautifully with natural textures and brass accents,” says the team. “Sage kitchens are on-trend, but timeless enough to last.”

Add wooden shelves, a venting hob and textured tiles, and you’ve got a kitchen that ticks every 2025 design box.

VENTING HOBS

Venting hobs are fast becoming the must-have for modern kitchen design – and it’s easy to see why. Combining powerful extraction with minimalist form, they’re perfect for open-plan living.

“Customers love how venting hobs remove the need for overhead extractors,” says NKBCo. “They create a cleaner sightline, especially in kitchens with islands or sociable layouts.” 

They’re not just practical, either. With flush-fit options, touch controls and elegant finishes, venting hobs blend effortlessly into any design scheme – from Scandi to Art Deco.
