Every kitchen is unique from the style of the fixtures in the space to the finishing touches that make this essential room of the house a place that you love spending time in.
While each home may have its own vision for the perfect kitchen, there are a few general styles that have stood the test of time over the decades.
Featuring everything from classic elements to modern, cutting-edge technology, KSI Kitchen Solutions is here to give you all of the details on the most popular kitchen styles that you can consider when it’s time to take the plunge into kitchen remodeling.
RUSTIC AND WARM FARMHOUSE KITCHENS
Farmhouse kitchens conjure up images of fresh-baked bread, sunlit spaces, and warm family memories, so it’s no wonder that this kitchen style remains a top choice for homeowners around the country.
As the heart of your family’s home, the kitchen is the perfect place to explore added a rustic touch and comfortable, inviting elements that create the ideal space for gathering with family and friends.

If you are considering updating your kitchen with this style, there are few key areas that you’ll want to focus on to bring your vision to life:
Shelving: Shelving and storage are key features in any kitchen, and farmhouse kitchens are no exception. To get more out of your storage space while adding to the homey feel of the room, consider removing the doors of a few of your cabinets to create open shelving and an airy environment.
Kitchen Sinks: When you think “farmhouse kitchen”, the sink is one of the first features that come to mind. This kitchen style typically includes a large, deep, basin sink crafted from heavy-duty materials. The apron-fronts and solid construction of these sinks are both extremely practical and guaranteed to be an eye-catching statement piece in your home.
Oversized Features: When designing a farmhouse kitchen, this is the time to think big when it comes to the main features of the space! From oversized islands to large, wooden tables and rustic fireplaces, these larger-than-life features can make any room feel luxurious, rustic, and inviting.
MODERN KITCHENS WITH SLEEK STYLING
Is your home aesthetic a big more cutting-edge than the classic, rustic designs of a farmhouse kitchen? Then a modern kitchen remodel might be the ideal choice for your home! Modern kitchens are loosely defined with sleek styling and strong, horizontal lines throughout the space, while incorporating industrial elements that bring your current kitchen into the 21st century. The key features that you’ll want to focus on when creating your perfect modern kitchen include:
Cabinets: Called by many names, including overlay, Euro frameless, and full overlay, frameless cabinets are the perfect addition to a modern space. With this style, the cabinet door overlays the box of the cabinet to create a sleek, consistent look that plays off the other striking features in your kitchen design.
Small Details: With a modern kitchen, the phrase “less is more” has never been truer! Instead of overdesigning your remodel, focus on simple, clean accessories and an overall lack of ornamentation. Integrated hardware, glass backsplashes, industrial elements, and solid counters are all smart choices for a modern space.
If you love the look of a modern kitchen, but you want to add a bit of eclectic playfulness and cutting-edge technology to your home, you can expand on this style to create a contemporary kitchen! Contemporary kitchen designs include many of the same elements of modern kitchens with a few more surprising elements, vintage touches, and high-tech appliances thrown in.
