Like any other industry, kitchen remodeling and cabinetry is a continually evolving industry. While it’s true that some looks never seem to go out of style, many consumers want to see a little innovation when it comes to their kitchen designs. Here are a few kitchen trends to keep an eye out for in 2019. Kitchens that feel like a sports car![]() For several years, variety hoods have actually been an afterthought when renovating a kitchen. Kitchen cabinetry, lighting, or floor coverings tend to be more obvious elements homeowners consider when it comes to remodeling their kitchen. That is, until now. Previously only available is high-end appliances that would exceed several months of your mortgage, appliances that come in sporty colors like cherry red or blue make the list as some of the hottest kitchen trends in 2019.

Maximizing Usable SpaceCreating a space for kitchen essentials becomes critical, especially if you’re opting to go with a modern, clean look. If you’re like most homeowners, the cabinet that stores your pots and pans can get cluttered. You may even resort to just stacking your cookware in the cabinet and closing the door as quickly as possible, hoping to avoid any serious bodily injury should the door open.
