There are pictures you can see online if you want to look at contemporary kitchens. But, the more pictures you see, the more you will feel like adding different items to the kitchen. However, the modern kitchen follows a few design principles. The main design elements comprises clean lines, bold and contrast colors, some modern art fixtures, lot of light, and an uncluttered space. So, let us look at each of the kitchen design elements in detail. Modern Kitchen Design Ideas It is not about the items or accessories that will give your kitchen the feel of a modern kitchen, but the design itself. So, keep in mind the elements below and shop for items, furniture, or accessories which go in harmony with the design elements. Clean Lines Always maintain clean long lines in the kitchen. This doesn't mean that there can't be curves; you can also opt for kitchen countertops or other furniture that are curved in shape. You can go for wooden flooring where you can see the horizontal lines of planks to add more to the effect. Maintaining clean lines will not just give the feel of a modern kitchen, but also help to make the kitchen look bigger. Modular kitchen furniture and other modern furniture like table and chairs will also add more to the use of lines. You can also choose a table which is horizontal or semi-curved and go for chairs that depict a modern design. Go for table and chairs having sleek legs of steel. Using a glass table top will also help to enhance the look. Colors Go for a dichromatic theme and avoid too many colors, also try to avoid a black and steel colored kitchen. It is good to avoid any interior painting ideas to give the feel of an uncluttered kitchen. Some of the best color combinations for kitchens are aqua blue or green walls with some portions of the walls painted white, and white kitchen appliances, and other steel items. Another great theme is half lavender and half white walls, with black appliances, and steel furniture. Try to avoid going for the basic off-white kitchens, but if you can't decide on wall colors then choosing the off-white color for the walls and white appliances is a safe bet. Make sure you add few accents like a vase with flowers, chairs with good color seats, or a few paintings in an off-white modern kitchen. Lot of Light Make sure the kitchen has plenty of light. In theme kitchens like Tuscan or French Country kitchens, an old and yellowish light tinge is given. But in a modern kitchen white soft lights are used. Make sure there are enough windows to let the natural light in. If there isn't enough natural light, consider installing a skylight or an additional window. To increase the artificial kitchen lighting, add extra lighting by hanging some modern design lamps that go with your kitchen decor. Uncluttered Space Modular kitchen furniture itself provides enough space to store all the items, so the possibility of clutter is the least. There are enough shelves for you to store utensils and sections are made in modular furniture to store appliances like ovens. Place your refrigerator in a way that it takes minimum space and at a place where it is nearby for you to access. Try to avoid any open shelves. If you still want more space, then consider installing some more kitchen cabinets. Make sure you always maintain the countertop uncluttered.
