The Kitchen trend for 2018 is a clean modern design. Little or not much embellishment on cabinets, with a simple pattern, and colors such as a forest green, blues, black and dark. Quartz counter tops in white, off-white or gray. Light spacious kitchens with open layouts, exposed shelving. White walls are back with adding a touch of color. Floating shelves helps the kitchens feel brighter and roomy. The goal is to eliminate clutter, minimalist style with less bling, but still a focus on the style of the kitchen sink. This year, the trend is less is more.
