The top 5 hottest kitchen trends of 2024

Your kitchen should suit your taste and your lifestyle – and ideally it would be timeless. With that said, it’s always worth looking at current trends for design inspiration.

To get your inspiration flowing we’ve spoken to interior designers and suppliers to put together a quick guide to the top 5 hottest kitchen trends of 2024.

1. Quiet luxury

The current trend for luxury kitchens are minimalism, understatement and natural tones. In other words, quiet luxury. Think engineered wooden benchtops and brushed brass fittings, dark matte tiling and warm earthy tones inspired by Japanese and Scandi design philosophies.

2. Seamless, made to measure countertop design

In typical modern kitchens sinks, hobs and other appliances appear separate from the countertop, often in different colours or textures. But what if it could all appear as one seamless whole? That’s the idea behind a trend that’s quickly becoming more and more popular for seamless, custom countertops.

Abey offer custom stainless steel countertops made in Italy via the award winning Barazza brand. These are the cutting edge of kitchen design, laser cut using the highest quality AISI 304 stainless steel.

3. Sleek gas hobs

If you’re going for a seamless look with your countertop, the best way to tie it all together is with a gas hob that blends right into your benchtop. Abey stocks a huge range of these hobs, from Italian brand Barazza, including an expansive and luxurious 90cm, built-in hob with five gas burners – perfect for the serious home chef.

4. Coloured stainless steel sinks

The kitchen sinks in 90% of Australian households are stainless steel (and with good reason, it’s a fantastic material). But recently there’s been a growing trend towards something a little more interesting and exciting – coloured stainless steel. These come in countless colours, including matte black, bright gold and copper.

Our team’s favourite is the Piazza Double Square Bowl in Eureka Gold – the ultimate statement sink.

5. Wooden tones

Cold and mass produced is out and kitchens with custom wooden tones are in. That includes dark, engineered wood benchtops with intricate grain patterns and custom wooden cabinetry.

Wooden tones can look incredible whatever your kitchen design is – whether you’re going for a modern minimalist or elegant classic look.
