When you are updating or remodeling your kitchen, there are many things to think about. But remember, those little details have a great impact and the texture is one that people can often ignore.
The importance of texture in kitchen design
If you are not careful, you can end with many “bright and soft” kitchen features, without any texture to balance it. Even modern cooking designs, which are known for their elegant and simplified finishes, can end up wearing plans if they do not find a way to mix it.
The texture helps to add depth and interest to interior design spaces, and is an especially crucial element if its design palette falls into the total or monochromatic end of things.
Here are a handful of ideas to add texture in your next remodeling of the kitchen, to make sure you keep interesting things.
1. Mix the elements
We refer to this literally. There is a wide range of natural and manufactured elements that can be incorporated into its design, such as wood, stone, metal and glass. Use a combination of these and your kitchen will get an “automatic surface elevator. The kitchen below is a rich example in texture. Look how well the brick wall, the beautiful wooden floors, the slippery countertop and the stools work together. Space is anything but boring and the pendant art work provides an additional color.
2. Use patterns
Even if the patterns are created from similar finish mosaics, they still provide the visual impression of relief, dimension and texture. For example, take a look at the splashboard below in this gray Darlington kitchen. In truth, the tiles are soft and bright, as are the countertops, the cabinet finish and the appliances. Even so, with the use of smaller mosaics (creating more lines and depth between the tiles and the grout) and a multicolored pattern, the splash protector has a textured appearance.
3. Angustic or glaze finishes
Every time you add an distressed or glazed finish to the cabinets, you will get an attractiveness of instant texture. Angusticated cabinets are a more dramatic example of this, with the different colors and heavy brushstrokes that produce almost an appearance of imitation wood. However, even a very soft enamel will add a bit of dimension and help the details and edges of the cabinet to get a little of its one -dimensional faces. Take a peak in the kitchen below. Cabinets have an anguished finish that causes white cabinets to jump a little. The splash mosaic also provides additional layers of textural attraction.
4. Account Panels
Are you planning to install a peninsula or island with a high bar? Consider adding account panels on the side that are visible from adjacent life spaces. It is an attractive finish piece that announces the texture on a surface that is typically flat and boring. You can see the difference in the kitchen below. That design is another example of how texture keeps interesting things; Take into account the plate mosaic pattern for splashes and molding at the top of the cabinets as well.
5. Details, details details
If you are planning a traditional kitchen design, its texture is in the details. By details, we refer to lighting accessories, the knobs of the cabinet door and the pulls, including finishes and sink.
You can see a wide range of these examples of details in the kitchen above. The built -in cabinets and the sink of the textured farm work together to cause impressive artistic impression, as well as the lighter island countertop, which balances the heaviness of slightly darker cabinets. Lighting accessories also exceed space with a personal touch.
Do you feel that your kitchen design can be too one -dimensional for comfort? We go to the Kitchen Magic exhibition hall to discuss your textured options.
