Transform Your Kitchen With These Modern Touches

Kitchen upgrades are a fantastic use of renovation funds. Not only can it completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen, but it can also help you be more active in the kitchen with new appliances. But whether you’re on a limited budget or just want the biggest impact changes, here are a couple of ways to transform your kitchen with some modern touches.

Upgrading your kitchen storage

Kitchen storage is perhaps one of the most common things we add to a kitchen during a renovation. This is because there are probably plenty of ways to squeeze in a bit of extra storage. It could be a kitchen storage option such as a cabinet, it could be extra drawers, or even a full-sized kitchen island if you have enough space.

These are all great options for people who are looking to store more items in their kitchen, but it’s also a good option to transform the look and feel of the space too. By going with modern options with neutral colors and geometric shapes, you can create a sleek and contemporary look.

Consider changing your flooring

Changing your floors is a huge commitment, but it can also create a beautiful effect in your kitchen if you’re using the right materials. Don’t hesitate to try something new, such as hardwood flooring, if you’re currently using something like laminate or even tiles. Changing it up can also make maintenance a lot easier, but it depends on the type of kitchen that you’re looking to create.

Change out your worktops for something new

Changing out your worktops is one of the best ways to completely change the look and feel of your kitchen. This is because our worktops take up a considerable amount of space in the kitchen, especially if you have a large kitchen island in the middle. You can change them for any kind of material, but we’d suggest something sturdy like granite or marble depending on the colors and designs that you like.

This is a fairly simple project and is usually combined with new cabinets or repainting. This makes it a great starter project for anyone that is looking to get into DIY renovations and is something you can do over a short weekend.

Try out new lighting options

Lighting is a huge consideration to keep in mind for a cohesive kitchen design. Many people forget about using different kinds of lights because they’re used to using whatever is already installed. But if you want to create a dramatic difference in your kitchen, your lighting is the best place to do it.

You can start by changing out the lights that you use for your kitchen island or even consider changing the lights on your exhaust fan or underneath cabinets. If you’re feeling particularly fancy or modern, then RGB kitchen lights can also be a good option to play around with but it does take a little trial and error before you find the right color.
