Four Emerging Kitchen Trends for 2019


Kitchens represent a sacred space within the home for both individuals and families across Canada. They are a communal area where we share stories, break bread and spend a great deal of time in while at home. Now, more than ever, Canadians are recognizing the importance and comfort that having a uniquely designed kitchen can provide them and their loved ones. The days of bland white kitchens and safe design choices are officially gone, replaced with fun, modern looks that owners and renters can feel proud to call their own. 
Here are four of the most notable emerging trends for kitchens as we close in on 2019:    



Mix it up!

White, minimalist designs are out while bold and colourful looks are in. Don’t be afraid to mix and match quirky patterns on cabinets, tables and counter-tops. Feel free to experiment with unique design features like curved light fixtures or in-kitchen bookshelves. Year 2019 is a chance to express yourself, don’t let it go to waste!   












Keep a garden…Inside

Everyone has been victim to a bushel of fresh herbs going bad long before it’s all been used up. Avoid this problem by operating a small garden inside your kitchen in a specially-designed greenhouse or a good old-fashioned potting system. Not only will your kitchen smell beautiful and be the envy of all your guests, but you’ll enjoy adding fresh herbs to all your favorite dishes! The options are endless with this emerging trend, whether you prefer fresh garden greens like kale or tropical herbs like basil, these plants will thrive in the safe inner confines of your kitchen space.
















The concrete revolution is here

Concrete was long considered a rudimentary building material primarily used for roads and other municipal construction projects. Today, the opposite is true as concrete is now utilized regularly for in-home design, largely because of its ability to provide a stunningly beautiful backdrop in areas like kitchens. Use concrete for main kitchen structures like flooring, islands and shelving spaces, while introducing a splash of colour with appliances, furniture, and accessories.

Farmhouse sinks can now go anywhere, including islands

In 2019, sinks are no longer just a place to wash vegetables and clean dishes. Sinks can indeed be one of the most beautiful design features in any kitchen, so why not bring a bold feature like a farmhouse sink up front and centre by installing it in your island. With the Saniflo Sanivite you can operate a sink without wall-based plumbing. Even better, the unit is quiet and compact so it easily fits into most spaces, allowing you to seamlessly integrate a farmhouse sink into areas of the kitchen that you didn’t think were possible!
