This year is all about mixing and matching colors and finishes. According to Sue Wadden, the director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams:
“Using multiple colors in kitchens has become a popular trend this year. For example, painting base walls or cabinets in a dark charcoal tone and upper cabinets and walls in creamy off-white tones is something we’re seeing more and more of.”
Blue and Green Cabinetry
You might already know that blues and greens are a major interior design trend for 2018. So, there is no surprise that you will see a lot of this ocean-inspired shades in kitchens during the year, especially on your cabinetry, so they can be used as the dominant color.
High-Contrast Marble
“Marble countertops with high contrast bold veining are making quite a statement. It’s perfect for book-matching to create intense drama, or doing as a waterfall down the sides of the island. Either way, this new trend is one to watch as I think it’ll be going strong for years to come.” says interior designer Donna Mondi.

“Homeowners were intrigued with slate tiles that came in black, dark green and multi-colored rust tones. We wanted to design a slate option for countertops that had the same natural cleft detail— but combined with the growing interest in dramatic black stones.”
