2025 is going to be all about bold tones, tactile surfaces, and statement lighting. Kitchens will open up to more nature-inspired palettes of green, light blue, and grey. The trend of indoor herb gardens is on the rise and homeowners will be open to vertical planters, as well as natural materials for benchtops, backsplashes, and flooring.
As interior design turns collectively towards natural materials, forms and colours as a way to bring the soothing, grounding character of the outdoors into the home, the kitchen takes up a classic, timeless tone picked straight from the garden as a key colour for 2025. Mint is an uplifting, zingy, yet subtle green shade, one that continues the kitchen’s movement toward soft pastel shades while echoing our desire to be close to nature. It’s a move on from sage green kitchen ideas which have dominated for a while, a slightly zestier approach.
Kitchen storage is getting the custom treatment. From appliance garages to walk-in pantries and customisable solutions, kitchens in 2025 will ensure everything has a place.
If you’ve never heard of an appliance garage, allow us to explain. They conceal countertop appliances such as blenders, coffee makers, and toasters while keeping them easily accessible and organized.
Bare wood cupboards are set to make a comeback in 2025, inspired by Scandi design, so don’t worry if you can’t decide on a colour scheme.
Wood kitchens create a warm, inviting atmosphere, the natural grain and textures add depth and character to the home and provide the perfect backdrop for an abundance of natural textures, from solid surface worktops to sandstone floors and more.
As we head into 2025/6 however, expect to see the trend to move more towards darker tones with more character. Darker woods create a sense of depth and personality, making it a great choice for anyone who wants to make their kitchen feel warm and truly lived in.
