As 2023 is quickly nearing an end, we take a peak at what 2024 has in store when it comes to home design trends. Today we are looking at kitchens. And specifically kitchen color schemes.
While opulence and luxury have seen the spotlight in recent years, 2024 has homeowners seeking versatile and tranquil kitchens offering a welcoming space for socializing and cooking alike.
Whether you are building a new home or ready to transform your existing space, we share a short take on 2024 kitchen trends in color and countertop material.
Rich color in kitchens
Mono-white kitchens are fading in popularity, ushering in a new era of powerful color palettes including smokey blues, rich browns, green; even reds and purples.
What does this mean for countertop trends?
Personal taste, style and budget will always play a roll in what combinations of cabinets and counters people chose when remodeling their kitchen. Man-made Quartz is still one of the most popular choices people go with. Quartz countertops offer durability and stain resistance, both high on the list of homeowner priorities. Offering prices for every budget, it's easy to see why quartz countertops remain wildly popular as we head into 2024.
Something as simple as Miami White Quartz is easy on the eyes and matches with many different cabinet colors and styles, such as this soft brown mauve with brushed gold sink and pull accessories.
For homeowners looking for more dramatic and colorful pops, something like these contemporary smokey blue cabinets pair perfectly with a quartz that offers the rich look that mimics Calacatta Marble, but without the ongoing care marble requires. These include stone names such as Calacatta Gold, Calacatta Oro, and Calacatta Laza - but in today's world, the options are nearly endless.
Stone vs. Tile Backsplash
The use of Quartz and newer countertop materials such as Dekton® in place of the more traditional tile backsplash is being used by many discerning homeowners. This trend shows no sign of slowdown in 2024 as it adds to a kitchen's tranquility and offers an immersive experience consumers crave. Not to mention, quartz backsplash is MUCH easier to keep clean with no tile grout to keep up with, leaving more time to enjoy your beautiful new kitchen oasis.

It’s exciting to see how kitchen trends are evolving for 2024! The shift from all-white kitchens to more vibrant and varied color palettes is definitely a refreshing change. Smokey blues, rich browns, and even bold reds and purples are great choices for creating a cozy yet stylish kitchen. I also love how quartz countertops are still dominating – they’re such a versatile and low-maintenance option. The trend of quartz or Dekton backsplashes is also spot-on, as it really cuts down on cleaning time while maintaining that sleek, modern look. Definitely makes me think it might be time to update my kitchen!
