Modern Kitchens


modern_Beautiful-kitchen With their sleek fixtures and furnishings, emphasis on horizontal lines, and characteristic lack of ornamentation, modern kitchen designs provide plenty of space and functionality that are essential to a minimalist lifestyle in Fort Worth, Southlake, Grapevine, and Trophy Club in Tarrant County.

It is easy to confuse modern design with contemporary design simply because the contemporary school incorporates elements that are considered “current” or “of the present day.” It just so happens that many modern design elements are currently in fashion, but the word “modern” really refers to the modernist design movements that emerged beginning at the turn of the 20th century, which emphasized simplicity and clarity of forms, the use of modern materials, and the principles of functionalist planning.

Kitchens built in the modernist style fully embrace these elements, allowing homeowners to create spaces that evoke the classic modernist tenet of “form follows function.”

 

The following are some common themes of modern design:

  • Emphasis on clean lines, streamlined surfaces, and plain geometric elements
  • Deliberate lack or reduction of ornamentation
  • Frameless cabinets
  • Neutral-colored area rugs
  • Monochromatic color schemes coupled with striking color elements
  • Consistent and sleek accent pieces and hardware
  • The use of industrial and natural materials like steel, concrete, natural wood, marble, and brick
  • Purposefully allowing the natural appearance of materials to make the statement for the design, as opposed to concealing or changing them
