Popular Kitchen Remodeling Trends in Minnesota

Tackling a remodeling project in your home is a big undertaking. Without proper inspiration, you could end up with something you don’t love. If it’s time to remodel your kitchen, consider the current kitchen design trends in Minnesota. 

Our design-build experts at Apple Construction have scoured the latest trends and put together this guide to help you design and decorate your new kitchen. 

Recycling & Sustainability

A major trend sweeping kitchens around Minnesota is recycling and sustainability. As homeowners become more aware of their environmental footprint, they elect to dedicate space in their kitchens for recycling, composting, and waste reduction. 

From the countertop material selection to the flooring, there are endless ways you can embrace eco-friendly practices in your kitchen remodel. 

Natural Colors

Earthy and soothing colors from nature are popular as paint and decor colors. Soft, muted tones like sage green, terracotta, and warm gray are very popular options. They help create a tranquil environment and evoke a connection with nature. 

On the other hand, rich, earthy tones infuse warmth and comfort into your home. 

Natural Wood Accents

As part of the push toward sustainability, natural wood has become increasingly popular in kitchens. Warm-colored wood adds natural texture and atmosphere to your kitchen. It’s a versatile material that can be used for cabinets, countertops, and flooring. 

Paired with the natural earth tones, natural wood accents will bring added comfort to your kitchen. 

Mixing Old & New

Upcycling and buying vintage are very popular, allowing you to repurpose older things and make them new or modern. This helps reduce waste in landfills and adds new life to something old. Mixing these older items with new items creates a unique aesthetic. 

Some popular items include gold frames, reclaimed farmhouse sinks, and retro appliances combined with more modern cabinetry and fixtures. 

Artisan Tile

Artisan tiles add artistry, sustainability, and individuality to kitchens. They allow you to express your unique style and support local craftsmanship while maintaining a trendy look. 

Whether you want to use these tiles as backsplash, accent wall, or kitchen island, you can enjoy the look and feel of something completely unique to your home. 

Ceramic or Soapstone Countertops

The current trends in countertops are soapstone and ceramic. They are very heat resistant and ande out of natural materials. Both materials have smooth surfaces and deep, rich colors that complement a traditional or modern kitchen. 

Soapstone is naturally beautiful and durable and fits in with the current approach of nature in the kitchen.
