Glass is an attractive and functional material that has an increasingly important role in interior design. The kitchen is one of the spaces in which we find this versatile material. Here are a few of the interior designer’s ideas for decorating the kitchen with glass – wall coverings, cabinet doors, and countertops.
Contemporary Kitchen Design
In recent years, kitchens have changed a lot, for several reasons – the development of technology and the improvement of the materials from which they are made. Also, the functional aspect of kitchens changed according to the lifestyles of users. The richness of colors, the variety of shapes, and the application of sophisticated materials – are the features of contemporary kitchen design.
All the kitchen surfaces – the walls and floor, cabinet doors, countertops – are an inspiration to designers. Glass, processed in different ways, is one of the most popular materials. The kitchen appears more transparent and larger with the help of this attractive material.
Trendy Backsplash Ideas
The wall space between the upper and lower kitchen cabinets – the backsplash was previously reserved exclusively for ceramic tiles. Contemporary trends place glass surfaces in the backsplash area. Glass offers a wide range of options, whether you want to see a colorful photo or you prefer monochrome walls.
Kitchen Countertops
Countertops in the kitchen are located above the lower kitchen units and as part of the kitchen island. All of these surfaces can be made of glass. The experts recommend the use of tempered glass.
Glass Kitchen Cabinet Doors
The fronts of upper and lower cabinets are very important components in kitchen design. Glossy lacquered glass cabinet doors visually enlarge the interior, which is very important when designing a small kitchen. Even mirrors are becoming an increasingly common ingredient in kitchen design.
The appearance of the kitchen of the future is still a mystery; however, the glass will continue to be an important element of this functional and attractive room. The play of color and light, created by the glass surfaces, will shape the imaginative interiors of the future.
