According to Comfy Living, kitchen remodels are the number one most popular remodeling project with bathroom remodeling coming in at a close second. If you're interested in modernizing your kitchen, read on for more insight into some of the most popular current trends.

1. Floating Shelves

While cabinets have long been a standard in any kitchen, there are other modern ways to utilize kitchen storage. A popular kitchen remodeling trend right now is the use of floating shelves. In addition to giving a feeling of openness, it allows you to show off your lovely dishes, glasses, and cutlery.

2. New Uses for Wood

Who says you must have tile on the kitchen floors? If you have hardwood in other parts of the home, let it run into the kitchen, too. Create a cozy mood and bring elegance in by using trendy dark wood for islands or cabinets.

3. Fun With Backsplashes

You can have a blast with different materials in this kitchen feature. Incorporate metal with a worked copper or stainless steel backsplash. Instead of just using marble for your countertops, let it run up into a backsplash, too.

4. Double Islands

Two is always better than one. If you have a larger family or enjoy entertaining, make use of a double island design. More kitchen remodeling designers are creating bold and artistic designs for islands that are quickly making the standard rectangular shape outdated.

5. Well-Organized Pantries

Pantries have been around for a long time and used to be standard in every home. In 2023, they're making a comeback as people rethink putting everything in cabinets.

6. Practical Mudrooms

A mudroom is a great way to keep all your cleaning items in one spot. Say goodbye to trying to fit everything under the kitchen sink or in a closet. It's a separate designated area that allows you to keep your sanitation tools and cleansers away from the main kitchen. It's considered a mark of status, according to Homes and Gardens.

There are endless ideas and trends to take kitchen remodeling to the next level.
