The year 2025 introduces new trends that inspire kitchen design by combining creativity with functionality. Kitchens this year strike a perfect balance between aesthetics and practicality, with trends emphasizing the harmonious integration of these elements.
The color palette for kitchens in 2025 blends natural and bold shades. Popular choices include rustic terracotta, soft sandy hues, earthy clay tones, and deep greens and blues. These shades create a tranquil and grounded atmosphere, while bold colors and contrasts remain contemporary and stylish.
For a natural and soft ambiance, muted terracotta tones are an excellent choice. For example, the stunning kitchen designed for Molly Hammar by Ida Lauga radiates warmth and harmony. Photo credits: Ida Lauga
Soft, natural tones shine beautifully in the Ideal Herttoniemi showroom.
The muted sandy hues paired with golden details in HTH Kitchens' Lahti showroom add an elegant touch.
For those who love bold colors, a gray kitchen accentuated with vibrant orange offers a striking and trendy option. This dynamic design can be admired at the AINA Kitchens showroom in Helsinki, Lauttasaari.
Natural materials like wood, stone, and metal continue to dominate kitchen trends. These materials are not only visually appealing but also environmentally friendly. Increasingly, people opt for durable and recycled materials, such as stainless steel. Wood brings warmth and coziness, while stone and metal provide a sleek, modern look.
Stone worktops remain a popular choice, as seen in the exquisite designs at Arkken in Helsinki.
Blau designed kitchen features 90% recycled stainless steel, sourced from Outokumpu, with stainless steel surfaces by Stala.
In 2025, curved and soft shapes enrich minimalist kitchen designs. While straight lines are still prevalent, rounded elements such as curved cabinet edges and island shapes bring balance and a sense of movement to the space.
For instance, the curved furniture designs showcased at Arkken’s Helsinki showroom highlight this growing trend beautifully.
Stainless steel worktops are poised to become one of the brightest stars in 2025 kitchen trends. These surfaces are perfect for kitchens aiming to combine style and practicality. The smooth, seamless finish lends a professional appearance to the kitchen while being incredibly easy to clean.
“The best parties are in the kitchen” - the Arkken showroom in Helsinki features a stunning stainless steel kitchen that perfectly embodies these qualities.
Thanks to these features, stainless steel worktops are no longer exclusive to commercial kitchens; they’re increasingly popular in home kitchens as well. Stainless steel is also an eco-friendly option, being 100% recyclable. Stala now offers laser-patterned stainless steel surfaces that minimize scratches while enhancing aesthetic value. Paired with materials like wood or stone, stainless steel achieves a modern yet warm ambiance.
StalaTex - patterned stainless steel - is a 100% recyclable, ecological, easy-care and long-lasting material.
Backsplashes in 2025 are all about personality and ease of maintenance. Mosaic tiles, large tile surfaces, and patterned stainless steel panels are particularly popular. These areas offer an excellent opportunity to add character to the kitchen without extensive renovations. The focus is on materials that are easy to clean and highly practical.
A striking backsplash can transform the look of an entire kitchen, as shown in the Ideal Herttoniemi showroom.
Combining two materials in a backsplash is another stylish option, as seen in the functional kitchen design at the Charmia Hämeenlinna showroom. Photo credits: JOA Photography.
The year 2025 brings an abundance of inspiring kitchen design solutions where aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability seamlessly converge. Whether it’s bold colors, natural materials, or stainless steel worktops, choices are now made with durability and usability in mind.
