Top 10 Modern Kitchen Ideas That Will Feed Your Sense Of Sight

Sharing is caring!

Kitchen can be an experimental place in plenty of ways. 

First of all, we have the food of course! The sour dips, the creamy pasta, the juicy meat, yummy vegetables and of course, all of the sweets as a cherry on top!

Food isn’t the only thing in the kitchen coming in all different shapes and sizes, there’s one more and that’s the kitchen itself! There are tons of ways to style kitchens that are going to be the home for the most delicious of meals!

So, without further ado because I’m sure you already want to get to cooking, here are the top 10 modern kitchen ideas that will feed your sense of sight!

1. All-White And Ready For Food Coloring

An all-white kitchen is the absolute best background for making all of the delicious meals! I mean, just imagine how beautiful all of those food colors are going to look like on these white countertops and under the white cabinets!

It’s already making me want to cook the most vivid of meals! I’d include green beans, tomato sauce, blueberry muffins! All the colors of the rainbow would find their way to enter this white cooking area!

However, for when you’re not baking and everything is neat and tidy, a place as white and bright as this will feel like a breath of fresh air! What’s even better is that it’s going to make the place feel so much bigger too!

2. Dark Brown For The Moody Modern Lovers

If you’d rather opt for something darker and moodier, the dark brown kitchen would be the best possible choice!

Combining the warm lightning in traces with the brown cabinets and the glass details will create the elegance usually only seen in fancy restaurants! Yes, your kitchen can be turned into one of those stunning restaurant ones!

It goes without saying that something that would be an amazing addition to this kitchen is the glass or an open cabinet which would display your favorite fancy glasses along with the wine. 

The pure sight of this kitchen speaks elegant dinners accompanied by the drinks and the soft music in the background.

3. Greenery For The Refreshment

Oftentimes when we get stuck thinking on what to add to our place to make it feel more alive we are roaming around all of the decor options when the solution is right in front of us – plants!

They give off so much life and make every room feel ten times more fresh, and well, the kitchen is no exception!

There’s no need to stop on just one plant that you will take care of in your cooking oasis, you can add a bunch and create your mini indoors garden! Some hanging ones, the tiny potted ones placed right next to the bowls, and of course, the big beauties!

Since we’re talking about the greenery of the plants, let me mention just how lovely the greenery of the interior choice can be too! You will surely not go wrong if you choose green to be your go-to color with the walls or the furniture! In fact, you’ll be 100% right!

4. The Minimalist Modern Approach

Kitchens are often decorated with a bunch of cabinets, amenities, everything all around! But if that’s not your style, that’s no problem!

A modern minimalist cooking room might be exactly what you need!

Just take a look at the photo above, clean lines with an off-white color all around, only breaking the monochromatic look with the two brown chairs. The only things I can imagine that are missing from here are some hot, black coffee and avocado toast!

Minimalist lovers, I’m sure you just found your dream place and your main kitchen inspiration, didn’t you?

5. Let’s Color It Up

A complete opposite from the previous idea is this super colorful kitchen!

You know what it reminds me of? Lego’s! And I love that, it’s such a unique look! I’m sure that if you were to go with this style, you’d find absolutely no one having the same one! You’d be special!

Of course, there’s no need to replicate the kitchen from the photo above but the idea is there! Various different colors, fun shapes of the furniture, and it would be even better if you added some shelves with different textured decor or painted the wall with some patterns!

I’m sure those with impeccable artistic visions would create a colorful kitchen, inspired by this one, so beautiful it would reach the magazines!

6. Big Kitchen For The Chefs

Something tells me it’s mostly the cooking lovers that are looking through all these ideas for their kitchen, so I can’t not suggest one that’s going to be a total eye candy for them!

The modern kitchen with not one, but two islands would be the winner for all of the chefs out there!

And yes, there’s more countertop space between the cabinets!

You can use one island for your first and second course, while preparing the third course on the other, along with some extra appetizers!

And just imagine all of the cabinet space in a kitchen as big as this! You can get all of the cooking equipment you have ever wanted and not worry about where it is going to fit! What a dream, am I right?

7. Smaller Option For Lesser Chefs

Of course, not all of us are chefs! Some prefer to make some simple meals, or even better, get takeout! Most of the time spent in the kitchen when it comes to people like that is to prepare some tasty drinks or quick foods so there’s no need for a huge room.

That’s why a modern kitchen that’s tiny but mighty would be an excellent idea!

A huge plus when it comes to kitchens like this is their coziness! Despite being decorated in a modern way, they have that something to them that makes them feel so warm and comfy

I wouldn’t be surprised even if those who are pretty good at cooking opt for a place like this considering their cozy feel!

8. Huge Windows For The Brightness

Floor-to-ceiling windows are quite modern, so of course they match ideas of a modern kitchen, but the amount of pros they have is crazy!

One of them is that they welcome so much natural light to get inside which can only affect you in a positive way! We all feel better once the sunlight graces our inside space, right?

Another thing is that they allow the most stunning views. Cooking can be super fun, washing the dishes however? Maybe not as much! But it’s all made a ton easier when there’s a beautiful view right next to you!

And a third thing is amazing when we’re talking about apartments on the ground floor or with a balcony, and that is that you can connect the outdoors space with the indoors one! Your kitchen would grow two times the size during those summer and spring months!

9. Everything At The Tip Of Your Fingers

Cabinets are amazing, they allow us to store so many amenities and make the place immediately seem more tidy. However, something I very often lean more to are the shelves! 

There are two pros to them: practicality and aesthetic!

They are super practical because everything is right in front of you! You can find the equipment and reach it much easier!

And the aesthetic part is because the cooking amenities can be decor too! If you have some gorgeous wooden equipment, why not display it?

An extra idea would be one floor-to-ceiling shelf too! You can put all of your recipe books and special dishes over there! It would look stunning!

10. The Meals Are All Around You

The one I left for the ending, as the cherry on top, is the kitchen style where everything you’ve made is around you! That sounds pretty cool, doesn’t it?

With the island in the middle of the room, you can use it for cooking and allow yourself to have more space and freedom to experiment. But, you can also use it as a dining table with the countertop space and cabinets being on both sides!

I’m sure that after working hard to make some delicious food and having the tastiest smells spread throughout the kitchen, eating in that area would feel even more special!

Final Words

Well, this just confirmed that there are as many different kitchen styles as there are meals! And this is just the modern ones, imagine all else that awaits!
