1. Bold Colors: Farewell to All-White

Dark green and navy blue dominate, creating sophisticated, nature-connected spaces. Paired with natural wood or warm metals like brass, these colours add depth. For timeless elegance, neutrals like greige (grey with beige undertones) serve as a perfect base.

Example: Cabinets in matte forest green, white marble countertops, and antique gold handles.

2. Sustainable Materials: Elegance with Ethics

Sintered stone and reclaimed wood lead eco-friendly innovation. Cork and bamboo add warmth, while terrazzo countertops with recycled glass fragments offer customization.

Key stat: 78% of Spaniards prefer natural materials in renovations, per Porcelanosa.

3. Smart Kitchens: Tech-Driven Comfort

AI-powered appliances and sensor faucets blend into minimalist designs. Highlights include silent high-power hoods and smart fridges with internal cameras.

Emerging trend: App-controlled LED lighting mimicking natural light cycles.

4. Multifunctional Design: Open and "Dirty" Kitchens

Open kitchens remain popular, but with a twist: hidden dirty kitchens for practical tasks. These secondary spaces house basic appliances, keeping the main kitchen social and aesthetic.

European insight: 62% of German renovations now include a butler’s pantry.

5. Textures and Metals: The Art of Detail

Textured surfaces (microcement, 3D tiles) and mixed metals (rose gold, copper, steel) add tactile depth. Brushed or satin finishes minimize fingerprints without sacrificing luxury.

Winning combo: Beige terrazzo walls, navy blue cabinets, and aged brass fixtures.

6. Vintage Reimagined: Nostalgia Meets Modern

Retro appliances (pastel or cherry red) and open shelving for heirloom dishware make a comeback. This trend, popular in France and Italy, merges nostalgia with clean lines.

Styling tip: Use hydraulic tiles in muted tones for a vintage floor.

7. Outdoor Kitchens: Alfresco Luxury

Ideal for Mediterranean climates, outdoor kitchens feature durable materials (porcelain tile, stainless steel) with grills, wood-fired ovens, and bar areas.

Pro tip: Dekton® countertops resist UV rays and thermal shocks.
