This Year’s Top Kitchen Trends
What’s twice as good as a single kitchen island? This maximalist approach to counter space is a winning feature of today’s luxury kitchens. Two islands create ultimate flexibility for cooking and entertaining, and establish the room as a stunning yet functional place to gather.
Double-Duty Islands
Goodbye stainless steel facades. Top luxury interior designers now opt for panelling refrigerators (and more) to blend in seamlessly with a kitchen’s cupboards. Luxury appliance brands are on board, too, with panel-ready designs available across their line-ups.
Paneled Refrigerators
Range hoods are officially an object of beauty. This useful appliance is now a star player in the kitchens of beautifully designed homes. Whether intricately adorned, or in modernist chrome, or custom-paneled to match the rest of the room, luxury hoods are now making a statement.
Statement Hoods

Smeg x Dolce & Gabbana Fridge
This Smeg and Dolce & Gabbana collaboration is a design-forward dream appliance. If price is no object, there’s little else out there that packs the same amount of luxe personality.
Cairn Centerpiece
Soft curves and sculpted details make this piece an organically stylish multitasker, whether you’re using it as a fruit bowl, a charcuterie tray, or as a spoon rest.
Grohe 2-Handle Wall Mount Pot Filler
John Boos Walnut Cutting Board
Mauviel Copper Pot & Pan Set
This chopping block is one that never has to leave your kitchen counter. The John Boos signature edition features walnut hardwood in a striking end grain pattern.
Mauviel copper cookware is renowned for its remarkably even heating – and of course, its gorgeous aesthetics. This set looks stunning simmering, searing, or sitting on your shelf.
Soleil D’Hermès Coffee Cup And Saucer, Set of 2
Savor your morning coffee or tea a little extra when you sip with this Hermès set. Illustrator Arielle de Brichambaut lends a sunny and sophisticated pattern that pops.
A pot-filler is one of those accoutrements that takes a kitchen to the next level. This functional and stylish design makes pastas and braises a breeze.
We love the look of this bowl, which can be used as a vase for flowers, to hold other decorative objects, or simply look stunning all by itself.
Serve perfectly clear ice, and never run out when you’re entertaining. A standalone ice maker is a fantastic luxury and this panel-ready option from Viking is a winner.
J’ai Soif Carafe & Glass
Beckett Bar Cart
This carafe and cup combo is inspired by traditional drinkware sets from France. It’s a great-looking kitchen staple for peaceful moments around the house.
A bar cart is a tasteful touch that always comes in handy. This one keeps your bottles and glassware at the ready, and is great for displaying decor pieces, too.
La Cornue CornuFé 110 Range
La Cornue ranges have been among the world’s most desirable since the company’s founding in 1908. For a traditional-style luxury kitchen, this hand-finished piece is tops.

12/100 Mug
A beautiful item from an independent creator, this one-of-a-kind mug is just as much a piece of art as it is a functioning vessel. Sip in style for years to come.
Dekum Metal Dome Pendant
Hanging above a kitchen island, these large matte pendant lights are perfect for an on-trend kitchen.
“The kitchen is returning to be the heart of luxury homes. We’re seeing a greater emphasis on lighting and music to create the perfect high-end ambience.”
