The word ‘modern’ is thrown around a lot nowadays and if you take a look around, you are sure to see contemporary touches at every twist and turn. From the façade of office buildings to the inside of shops and supermarkets, the modern craze is sweeping the globe. What’s so great about going modern is that trendy new home accents are being introduced to the market regularly, meaning that you can add fresh touches when you want without disrupting the existing theme. If you are keen to work with Kitchen Design Victoria for a kitchen makeover, don’t forget to request the following essentials.
Water Conserving Faucets
We all tend to use a lot more water than we should and this is why so many water conserving household appliances and fixtures are being introduced to the market, such as water conserving faucets. These specially designed faucets are very high performance, but they save energy and reduce water usage. An eco-friendly option, these essentials of modern kitchens could save as much as 3,000 litres of water every single year!
Shiny Materials
A modern and trendy space will normally always feature shiny materials, which could come in the form of marble or granite countertops, or a mirrored back splash. Reflective surfaces will create the illusion of more space and will also reflect natural light, eliminating the need for artificial light. Shiny metal hobs and matching metal appliances, like kettles and toasters, will create a consistent theme.
Spot Lighting
Finally, it’s time to choose the lighting for your modern kitchen. Spot lighting is a popular choice for homeowners everywhere because these lights, which are usually fitted with LED bulbs, will shine bright for up to 100,000 hours whilst using minimal energy. They can cast a bright white or warm glow and when integrated into the design of cabinets and cupboards, they will accentuate the kitchen’s fixtures.
