As our kitchens open up to the rest of the home, they become more than just a space for cooking and meal preparation, they are becoming an integral room for our living, gathering, and entertaining.


Whether you are looking to refresh or remodel a kitchen, you will find these trends and new introductions refreshing, along with a a few carryovers from 2022.

With this increase in multitasking in the kitchen along with a new refinement in products, materials, and colors in the marketplace we are seeing changes in the kitchen for 2023.

I am excited to share with you all that I’m seeing with this new emergence of fun new finishes, along with mixed metals in faucets and fixtures, as well as an updated use of cabinet colors and hardware finishes.

I’ll show you what’s on my radar and what I am excited about - take a look!

What’s New in Kitchen and Bath Design?

My Top 20 Favorite Design Introductions and influences for Kitchen and Bath 2023

Nothing beats the looks and quality of handmade products. As shown above, Matte Black Sink + Custom Hood / by Thompson Traders / www.thompsontraders.com

1. Black and grey metals are here to stay

There is a rise gunmetal and matte black finish for fixtures in the kitchen and bath. Matte Black was the finish of 2022, but for 2023 there is lots of discussion about a stunning new metal color, “graphite grey” a 90% grey in my book.

Stunning new metal cabinets in black and grey.

Metal cabinetry is having an impact. as resources become available. As shown above, Architectural finishes such as black metal windows are mirrored in the kitchen with Matte Black metal doors and cabinetry.

2. New Surfaces with Reeded panels and tambour cabinetry & Stone

A continuing shift from 2022 away from all-white kitchens or gray-and-white kitchens. It’s just not as popular, as we are seeing more Wood panels in Walnut and Oak, and with dimensional panels installed.

Reeded + Curved

  • “ Encapsulated” ’m really excited to see this texture added to the island and on other features like the fireplace and a more furniture-like approach to kitchen cabinetry, a little finesse if I may say.

Color love and the encapsulated and fluted stone Fireplace via my new design crush- Toro & Liautard fabulous shape, texture, and color - here they also added lots of burgundy, brass, and limewash paint.

The Wheel Pull Down Faucet: Waterstone

3. Kitchen Faucets with Mixed Metal and Traditional Lines

The Wheel Pulldown Faucet raises the bar to legendary levels and is a salute to America’s love for motorcycles and muscle cars. The perfect accent pieced for any bar or island sink, it is more a classic work of art than a faucet, yet highly functional with all the demands of a faucet. uber chic

The Wheel’s innovative pulley spray system is built with the highest quality and engineering you should expect from an American-made kitchen faucet. High-End faucet / by Waterstone/ WaterstoneFaucets.com

Hands-free faucets are also growing in popularity with an increase in options and manufacturers.

Newport Brass : Muncy

(See which faucet I have in my kitchen here: KITCHEN REFRESH. )

A touchless faucet is worth it, elevating your everyday kitchen tasks with the ease of a wave for water flow. I love it, my kids love it - it is definitely an evolving trend. When reviewing the plumbing options for your home, make sure to ask to see the Kohler or Toto touchless faucets.

You will start to see more touchless faucets in standard designs as well with various finish options.

4. The hidden kitchen with an increasing trend of warm woods in cabinetry as shown above.

All good in my book.

5. We also note newer Quartz or Quartzite for countertops and walls,

accented with mixed metals are all indicators of the most recent and exciting approaches to color and materials for the kitchen.

6. color and wood tones are returning to the kitchen

Gone is the monotone kitchen in white.

Adding color is seen in the use of wall tile with color, and cabinetry color choices, by creating a statement island with a contrasting color, wood finishes, and expressive stone.

2022- Last year we saw Green as a key color influence for 2022.

And don’t forget as mentioned above, more textures with reeded wood and stone.

Advancements in surfaces, with Dekton’s zero emissions surfaces for counters, walls and floors. Its beautiful too.

7. custom work surfaces- Sustainable- Zero

emissions full cycle

Double gain- Zero emissions as well as updated colors, textures, and environmentally friendly.

For 2023 as mentioned above, more textures with reeded wood and stone along with a responsible manufacturing cycle. We have learned from past issues related to quarts, and hard questions are answered by Dekton for Cosentino, a carbon-neutral product for its entire life cycle.

8. New surfaces- Reeded Quartz+ Terrazzo

New Surfaces: Compac Reeded Terrazzo for walls.

9. High-quality appliances: Induction is HOT

Why are greens so dominant in this year’s color choices? It appears that people spending more time outside and reconnecting with nature is the biggest influence of this new color trend. Earthy tones give off a feeling of fresh, new starts also. It’s no wonder these hues are such a dominant presence in this year’s choices.

10. “Convertible” Refrigerator/Freezer Drawers

Storage and organization are top priorities for kitchens, I am excited with the latest introductions and new flexibilities offered in the refrigerator/ freezer drawers these days. These latest innovations are clever and convenient ideas for refrigeration. The  Fisher & Paykel CoolDrawer is an ever-popular appliance choice for kitchens of all shapes and sizes. ( I have had the FP (2 ) drawer dishwasher for over 7 years, and I can’t be happier.) The multi-purpose integrated drawer has five different food modes to choose from that include a fridge, freezer, pantry, chill, and a wine setting offering total flexibility in the kitchen.

Here’s why we love them…

Use your FP CoolDrawer™ as a refrigerator, pantry, or freezer with the push of a button.

The freezer setting can be used for general frozen food storage but with a twist. There are three freezer functions to choose from: bottle chill, fast freeze and deep freeze. As well as being perfect for multiple tubs of your favorite ice cream flavors, the Instant Bottle Chill function has to be one of my favorite features for this appliance – if you have a room temperature bottle of wine you want to open now, place it in the F&P CoolDrawer on bottle chill and it drops the freezer down to its coldest setting for a 15 minute time period. After 15 minutes an alarm sounds to remind you to remove the beverage. Simple but effective.

12. Integrated Wine Cooler Drawer

Hot product of 2022: Dometic just introduced a new wine cooler in the form of a standard 24" drawer named DrawBar. This compact drawer holds five bottles at the temperature of your choice and is not limited to the kitchen. Think of, an office, luxurious bath area, or home bar area.

13. Countertop Wine Cooler

This is another fun introduction for 2022 that has carried over into 2023. The Kahelo integrated wine cooler for your bar counter or kitchen island. This is an integrated wine server that keeps your beverage perfectly chilled once you've opened it.

14. new work Surfaces- Stunning Innovations with Corian

This is my favorite of current introductions, with new materials, come new ways to integrate appliances and countertops. Just love how the burners are one with the countertop.

This is a Corian® kitchen worktop! The burners are integrated! Love this

15. Bath + Shower Updates: Integrated Drains

Can a shower drain be stylish? YES!

Combining function with updated design elevates your everyday showering. I found this beauty on the KBIS digital review this month featuring all-new introductions for 2021. Designers will often choose ACO for the stylish Wave grate as well as the linear drains that can be positioned along the wall, and they are also ADA compliant.

18. Lighting: The Kitchen Island is the main feature.

Most renovations include a featured fixture over the kitchen island. Even if you aren’t undertaking a major renovation, updated lighting is an easy and effective way to refresh your kitchen.

Kitchen Lighting has 3 layers that must be used together for the best results. 1. Undercounter lighting is a must-have. 2. Recessed lighting in walkways and general areas. 3. Featured fixtures, with the kitchen island having the main lighting feature, setting the style for the whole room.

Lighting styles with staying power:

20. Fluting is back in style for the kitchen and bath, and I’m all for it!

Trends come around time and time again, so it’s no surprise that fluting has been popping up in homes recently. We are seeing it on everything from bathroom vanities, kitchen cabinets, and vent hoods to side tables and glass vases.
