Initially there was a revolution in the kitchen designing department and everything started to look different. The old way of using wood etc was termed as the 'traditional' kitchen look and people moved on to more modern and contemporary look for the kitchen's interior. Everything was sleek, chic and very futuristic. However, as years have passed by, people are slowly reverting back to the traditional look but by putting a contemporary twist in it. This combination of ultra modern and traditional is a winner and in the year 2014, we can look forward to some amazing kitchen trends that will make your kitchen more comfortable and convenient.
Open Shelves:
One of the upcoming kitchen trends 2014 are that floating shelves or open shelves which has made life much easier. It is convenient because you can see exactly where everything is placed! If you are someone like me who is not as organized or a working man or woman who does not get time to organize the grocery or pots cabinet then this is exactly what you need. Open shelves have no cabinet door on them so you can see everything and it is in open display to the world as well. It would help to keep it neat but obviously it will make your life easier when cooking or serving.
Kitchen Islands:
Kitchen islands are not going out of trend for a while now! That is brilliant news because these islands have helped in making families eat together and spend more quality time together. It is a space which also gives you ease and convenience when cooking so you have a work space that is not too far from the hob. It also means that while you are cooking or baking your children can have their lunch under your supervision while you also catch up with them on their day. By socializing in the kitchen you can keep an eye on whatever you are cooking so that’s another major plus point.
Choose Kitchen-Ware Wisely:
Your crockery and kitchenware is also just as important as the theme of the kitchen. You do not have to necessarily match the kitchenware with the kitchen but it always helps that it is similar looking. Your kitchen pots, pans, crockery is also a way of expressing yourself. The best to do it, as this article explains as well at homes.yahoo, is to let your kitchen grow with you. So, decorate it as you go along, you do not have to do it in one go. It helps to collect things like magnets, cookbooks, decorating items, lamps etc as the year passes by. Let the kitchen be an expression of your personality and style.

Express your Style:
Never compromise on your own style. That is one of the most important factors when renovating a kitchen. A kitchen designer will tell you what he or she prefers, but in the end the choice should be all yours. You are going to be spending the maximum amount of time in the kitchen so choose colors and combinations that you can face everyday. Go for trends that suit your needs and your style of using the kitchen. Also, keep in mind children safety and the number of guests you have every now and then.
