With the start of a new year we’ve compiled a list of design trends for the kitchen and bathroom in 2020. Whilst our designs are based on longevity and relevance for the years to come, its also nice to incorporate a few modern touches into our work.
See below for our design trends forecast for kitchens and bathrooms for the year 2020!
Kitchen Trends 2020 – Retreat Design
Open plan, breakfast bars, study nooks
Where possible adding a scullery into the kitchen design
Seamless transition between kitchen and living area
Cabinetry continued from kitchen through to TV and living areas
Texture and depth of colour in material selections. It’s about being unique and inviting
Marble, stones and quartz with lots of veining and colour. Introducing pops of colour such as purple, blue, dark green and red in the furniture
Unique marbles and stones with lots of character (less of a cookie cutter style kitchen)
Warm colours such as timber, copper and black and brown
Timber highlights in the cabinetry to break up the ‘all white’ kitchen
Stone continued from bench tops up splash back for continuity of design
Integrated cabinetry lighting for mood and task lighting
Display cabinets integrated into the kitchen cabinetry for possessions and glassware to be on display

Oxidised and metallic lacquer cabinetry and recycled woods (see Arrital)
Mixing materials in the kitchen with timber and laminates etc
