Whether you’re in the process of designing your kitchen or planning on a budget-friendly refresh, the kitchen hardware you choose can enhance your vision.

If you leave picking out hardware until the very end of your kitchen remodeling project, you’re guaranteed to be stressed. Here are a few ideas to consider when finishing your redesign:

  1. Contrasting colors: If you have a two-toned kitchen, consider mixing up your hardware as well. For example, maybe you have all white cabinets near the sink, and choose a polished nickel hardware. If you have darker cabinets elsewhere, consider a brighter, chrome hardware to make it contrast even more.
  2. Less is more: Not all cabinets need hardware! Keep your kitchen free from clutter by installing pulls only where necessary. This will really make your other hardware pop.
  3. Old-fashioned ceramic: Ceramic knobs are known for making it easy to infuse charm into any space. If you love the modern farmhouse vibe, consider adding delicate ceramic knobs to tie the space together.

Kitchen Hardware Styles and Trends

Getting ready to redesign your kitchen?

There are so many options to choose from – paint colors, cabinet styles and colors, flooring, storage, and finishes.

From sleek and modern to classic and ornate, hardware can completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen. Here are some trends we’ve got our eyes on:

  1. Matte black finishes – Stainless steel and chrome are a timeless look, but to really step up your kitchen design, consider matte black. Especially against white cabinetry, matte black offers a sleek, polished look.
  2. Latches rather than knobs – Many different varieties of pull bars are available, and some homeowners are forgoing square and tubular pulls altogether in favor of an ages or antique brass latch. It can provide a striking look, but they aren’t super practical – consider using a latch for a cabinet that has decorative items, for example.
