The Kitchen Trend That’s Dominating Design This Year

Why Warm Neutrals Are Dominating in 2025

Warm neutrals, such as taupe and creamy beige, have been the go-to palette for kitchens so far in 2025. These hues invite warmth into your home, replacing the cooler greys and blues of previous years.

These tones seamlessly pair with wood finishes and make a beautiful backdrop for tactile textures and mixed finishes.

 

 

 

 

Pairing Neutrals with Wood Accents

Stained woods bring a timeless warmth to the kitchen – best used on elements such as islands and bar cabinets. They tap into into biophilic design principles while bringing comfort, connection, and serenity into your home. Neutral palettes serve as blank canvases adaptable to seasonal décor, changing finishes, or pops of greenery and color. Together, they’re a combination that exude elegance and timeless sophistication.

 

 

Designer Tips for Embracing the Trend

  1. Layer warm neutrals: Start with taupe or greige as the base paint, then pair with natural wood elements—shelves, cabinetry, butcher-block, island fronts, or ceiling beams. Contrast thoughtfully: Use darker wood tones for islands to anchor the space and add depth.
  2. Mix in warm metallics: Brushed brass, copper, worn gold, or bronze hardware complement both warm neutrals and wood beautifully.
  3. Incorporate wood accessories: cutting boards, trays, salad servers bring instant warmth to open shelving or worktops.
