Plan well, eat well!
While the title of this article might sound like a food & nutrition development program, it is far from the subject. The interior design section of Forbes 2018 listed the top trends when it came to furnishing and furbishing the pleasures of the home. Amongst the marble works and finesse of other intricate detailing, the venture of the color black in the kitchen makes it stand out from the rest. What sets this apart from the rest of the trends is that it revels in a state of luxury and privilege; it’s a sight to behold. Gone are the days when kitchens were mere cooking areas which used to be located at the very end or corners of the houses.
Today, maximum perfection is ensured while designing and stocking kitchens. Right from choosing the hue and material of the flooring to the shade of cabinets, hobs and even cookware, it has become something like an impressive delicacy.
As the world is converging towards dynamism, people’s preferences are undergoing various drastic changes too. Consumers are showing newfound interests and inclinations towards the darker shades when it comes to furnishing their houses, especially kitchen and dining areas. Black is in vogue, with all of its variants ranging from jet black, greyish black, raisin black to charcoal. This is probably because of the emotions the color emanates. It seems to be resplendent on its own because since it represents attributes like protection or power or sophistication, maybe even dignity & elegance to modernism. It ushers in seriousness and reserved-ness too, depending on the tone and setting. Darker hues have always been a thing.
Kitchens are becoming the focal point these days. To complement the vibrance, appliances are undergoing changes with the latest technology and sleekness being embedded in them.
The days are in the past when appliances had to be matched according to the textures and colors of the interiors; mix & match is more of a trend now. People prefer kitchens which are well-equipped with the modern amenities and connected to the exteriors, serving purpose and functionality both.
By choosing the right package and customizing it according to your tastes, you are in for a treat as you can dwell in the comforts of classic styles, and also exuberance of the premium portrayal. Such newly crafted kitchens are ergonomic, that caters well to the Indian ‘desi’ population who prefer retaining parts of legacy as they embrace the jewels of the 21 st century alongside. Kitchens also come in different types, ranging from vertical L-shaped to straight, parallel, u-shaped and island. Customization is a very cool feature to be honest as it allows customers to have a little of this and a little of that. Ultimately, the customer is the king. Open layouts, metallic finishes and brick amalgamations are accompaniments when it comes to enhancing the overall look.
While some discard such fads to be obsolete and frivolous, they still act as great benchmarks and markers for the fashion. No matter what people say, when it comes to such one-time mega-investments, nobody minds spending an extra penny in ensuring that the sight looks magnificent enough.
