Summer has drawn to an untimely close. Therefore, we are now preparing for the colder months ahead at Torbitts in Larne. Across Northern Ireland, many people are organising their kitchens for Autumn.
We love retrieving new inspiration at the beginning of any season. By doing this, we give our team fresh ideas. That way, we are a step ahead and know what our customers will be after this Autumn. After all, it’s our customers who matter most!
While you’re reaching for the knitwear that has been stored away, we’ve done the work for you. We have rounded up some of the biggest upcoming Autumn kitchen trends this year in Northern Ireland.
Dark colours are trending this Autumn in Northern Ireland
When selecting the colour palette for their kitchen redesign, many customers are now reaching for traditional heritage colours. These deeper tones are becoming a staple in many homes this season. Blue and green have been the most popular colours in the kitchen this year. This is not set to change anytime soon.
Heritage shades of navy blues and dark green are the most popular kitchen choices this Autumn in Northern Ireland. This somewhat traditional design choice offers a timeless colour scheme throughout your kitchen. If the dark colour palette is daunting, you will also be able to brighten up your space with some light countertops, or flashy accessories.
Will you opt for an earthy tone in your kitchen this Autumn?
Earthy tones are coming back this Autumn, and it looks like they are here to stay. As we already know, homeowners across Northern Ireland are loving green this year. The earthy-tone trend is no exception. Soft olive and sage are two of the most popular colours across kitchens in Larne, Carrickfergus and beyond this Autumn, and we are loving them!
Opting for an earthy atmosphere in your kitchen creates a calming, peaceful atmosphere in your kitchen space. Soft beiges and neutrals can be strategically placed throughout your kitchen to make your space feel more open and relaxing.
The kitchen is not just for cooking anymore!
Once upon a time, kitchens were a space in the home that was solely designated for cooking. Nowadays, kitchens have transformed to include a living space concept. This is no longer a destination for slicing and dicing, but a hub for socialising and entertaining in the home.
This kitchen-living space concept is evident in many ways. Open-plan kitchens are now being designed to encapsulate a space for cooking, dining and socialising in one area. Kitchen islands are also a popular feature of kitchen-living spaces as they facilitate food preparation, dining and socialising in one key area of the kitchen.
Texture, texture and more texture…
Texture is a daunting element of interior design, but layering texture is on-trend for Autumn kitchens in Northern Ireland. Textures are extremely versatile elements of the home, adding visual depth to capture interest. It can be added throughout your kitchen in a wide variety of ways, including through tiles, countertops, carpentry and soft furnishings.
As well as this, adding candles and an array of colours to your kitchen enhances the warmth of your kitchen space. Layering natural textures such as rattan is extremely popular this Autumn in Northern Ireland. This is because these textures can be easily layered, and they complement numerous colours. They also appear sophisticated, yet effortless.
