Atlanta Countertop Specialists at Craftmark Share the Three Biggest Kitchen Trends of 2014

ATLANTA, GA, April 24, 2014 (Press-News.org) Kitchen remodeling and upgrades continue to be a popular project in 2014. There are three trends that are becoming more and more evident. Designers are concentrating more on aesthetics than function, creating beautiful and interesting spaces via Paint choices, open cabinetry and color choices for countertops in Atlanta, the big three trends in 2014.

Paint Color
The bright, white sterile kitchen look may be nearing the end of its popularity. Consumers are looking for more warmth and boldness in their kitchens. Dark paint colors such as black, copper, deep rich browns and dark reds are becoming more and more popular. Most often these colors are used on an accent wall or in the flooring to keep the room from becoming too dark and heavy.

Open Shelving
Open shelving is a great way to show off your beautiful dishes. Kitchen design is becoming concerned less about hidden storage and more about how best to prominently display your cookware and dishes. Often the dishes are chosen to be part of the overall kitchen decor.

Black Countertops
Quartz and black granite countertops are a very popular choice this year. They give the countertops a a rich, leathery feel and look. Often, black countertops are paired with gray or marble countertops in Atlanta to create visual interest for the eye as well as functionality.

"The on-trend design choices concerning paint and kitchen countertops in Atlanta so far this year have allowed us to be more creative and imaginative with shapes and colors, resulting in stunning finished kitchen projects," explains Melinda Pulliam, Director of Marketing.

This year's kitchen design trends bring warmth and color back into the kitchen.
