Summer has arrived and what better time to spruce up your space with a fresh new look? We’re now enjoying warmer weather and longer days, meaning you have more time to enjoy being in your own space. It’s the ideal time to consider incorporating some décor ideas into your own Derbyshire kitchen, to help you enjoy those summer vibes. Here are some of the top summer kitchen décor ideas to consider for your kitchen this season.
- Declutter your space
It’s easy for worktops to become filled with recipe books, chopping boards, decorative vases and containers, but it can easily make your kitchen look cluttered and messy. By finding a home for these items, whether they are stored in drawers or hidden away in cupboards, your counters will soon become clear again – making your whole kitchen look tidy and a little bit more sophisticated and luxurious. Remember, less is more!
If you’re struggling to find space, it might be time to look at a kitchen remodel. Here at Kitchens Complete, we can help you re-structure your space so that you can hide all of non-essential items or out of season decorations so that your bespoke kitchen always stays neat and tidy.
- Bring the outside in
Blurring the boundaries between the inside and outside is a great way to make the most of the summer months. If you have the right kitchen layout, bifold or sliding doors can be a great way to create a fluid inside:outside living space. Make sure you inject nature into the home too. Place a few vases of brightly coloured flowers on your counter or island, or opt for an array of leafy green houseplants – it will boost your mood and inject extra colour to your space. Perfect for achieving those summer vibes!
- Add a pop of colour
Summer is a season synonymous with bright colours and it’s almost always guaranteed to boost your mood – what a better place to add colour than in the heart of the home? Opt for brightly coloured stools, a stylish splashback or a vibrant new crockery set to create a simple, yet bight statement. To add colour in the kitchen, but still cater to every season of the year, consider choosing white, cream, light blue or sage green cabinets to inject a subtle shade of colour into your new bespoke Derbyshire kitchen to light up the space.
- Opt for ‘broken plan’
While open plan is still very much a popular option, broken plan properties allow a space to be used for more than one function. We recommend installing a kitchen island as it creates a barrier to the dining room or garden space, but still allows you to mingle with friends and loved ones who are in other ‘rooms’ in the house while you are preparing an alfresco lunch. Finding ways to incorporate seating into your bespoke kitchen also makes it a lot easier to entertain, as it delivers a multi-functional space, so your guests can sit back and relax, while you refill their glass with refreshments.
- Level up on tech
Whether you are an avid cook or enjoy entertaining at home, introducing some tech innovations can help make it all easier. Install a warming drawer to keep plates hot so food doesn’t go cold, or introduce a wine fridge into your bespoke Derbyshire kitchen, so you always have a chilled glass of red wine or vino on hand to serve your guest while enjoying a summer alfresco lunch.
Here at Kitchens Complete, we have a range of innovative features, and we will work with you every step of the way to create a kitchen that meets all of your needs.
