What are the differences between a modern and traditional kitchen?

Traditional kitchens are built to suit the style of the house and designed to stay on trend for years to come. Traditional kitchen designs incorporate slopes, curves, easy edges and use real wood finishes, often painted with pale hues such as cream or grey. Stone tiles or splashbacks, marble or limestone worktops and classic patterns are commonly used. The cooker is the focal point so, the bigger the range cooker the better!

Modern kitchens, on the other hand, are built to fit in with the theme of the home and edge more towards functionality, they are the perfect choice for a busier kitchen. Modern kitchen designs are simple yet effective, offering ample storage space and vast countertop area. Straight lines, hard edges, handless cupboards, and doors and high tech appliances offer a sleek, compact design.
