19. Lovely walls

Opting for wooden cladding when it comes to the kitchen walls can create quite a spectacular interior design! If these walls also contain built-in appliances, the design will steal your breath away.

Wood is one of the materials that is most appreciated when it comes to minimalist trends so for a kitchen, it is ideal.

As we can see in this image, monochrome and elegance go hand in hand, where simplicity is key.

21. Tradition and modernity

Concrete is a material that is becoming very popular in recent times, bringing an industrial chic look and feel to the space. In this image, we can see how combined with wood, it creates a very impressive design.

Wooden kitchens don't necessarily have to stay their original, natural colour. They can also be lacquered or painted in your favourite colour.

As we can see in this image, it gives the kitchen a beautiful, vintage air. It also looks exquisite and genuine!
