The kitchen is a multifunctional room that many families spend a large part of the day in. Whether preparing food, eating it, or just hanging out there, your kitchen needs to be a space that is relaxing, comfortable and functional all at the same time. Adding elements that can make your kitchen feel more luxurious can be an excellent way to achieve all three goals.
You don’t need to entirely renovate the kitchen to make it feel fresh, new and luxurious. You can focus on accents and accessories to breathe new life into the space. There are options to suit all budgets, from the lowest to the highest.
Splashback
A new splashback can make your stove feel brand new. Many people opt for a classic stainless steel or white splashback, which makes it easier to clean. However, for some added luxury, you could consider installing patterned tiles, which will give the splashback and your kitchen, in general, some character.
Lighting
The lighting can be tricky to get right in a kitchen, as you need the right combination of bright lighting when cooking and more muted and relaxing lighting when eating. Getting a combination of lighting solutions can be ideal. You could have bright overhead lighting for when you’re cooking and separate, warm and relaxing lighting from lamps or pendant lights by your dining table.
Worktops
Gorgeous new worktops are one of the best ways to refresh your kitchen. Look for a stylish and timeless material and quality brand like these Silestone worktops from kitchen experts Melrosa Marble & Granite. Splurging a little on quality Silestone worktops will go a long way to making your kitchen look its very best.
Hardware
Updating the handles and doorknobs in your kitchen can be an excellent and cost-effective way to refresh the space. These are often simple to replace and can be bought in all major DIY shops. You could consider anything from glitzy glam faux crystal hardware to rustic chic burnished metal.
Wall Art
Wall art can be a great way to personalise your kitchen and turn it into your ultimate relaxing oasis. There are many options, from framed paintings to wall decals and murals. Whatever you choose, the artwork should be something you love to look at that fits with the overall aesthetic and feel you’re trying to achieve.
Flowers
Adding some nature to your kitchen can make the space feel bright, airy and beautiful. Fresh flowers can also help fill your kitchen with some gorgeous fragrances. You could consider signing up for a regular flower delivery service or visit your local supermarket or florist to pick up some lovely blooms to add that extra touch of luxury to the space.
Final Thoughts
Making your kitchen feel more luxurious is a common goal and one that can be achieved without spending huge amounts of money. Updating some key elements and including the right décor can go a long way to make your kitchen look and feel like something straight out of a high-end magazine.
