Modern Hamptons Style Kitchen – Key Features & Elements
Hampton style kitchen designs feature beautiful architecture, plenty of light, high-quality natural materials and white or wood grain colour palettes. The architecture is an excellent place to start when designing a modern Hamptons kitchen. In old, traditional homes, Hamptons style design best-suited rooms having classic features like pitched ceilings and windows that allowed abundant sunshine to enter in and timber flooring. However, a contemporary or modern Hamptons kitchen must have the following inclusions:
Splashback Material
Modern Hamptons style kitchens will look stunningly beautiful with natural stone or glass kitchen splashbacks or neutral coloured tiles. Besides, white, subtle pastel or marble tiles would look sensational in a herringbone setting.
Benchtop Material
Marble and wooden benchtops will be perfect for creating a classic Hamptons kitchen while engineered quartz stone and granite benchtops will modernise the Hamptons kitchen. If space is not a constraint, then you can also include a kitchen island. At Paradise Kitchens, we offer a range of durable and beautiful custom and ready made kitchen benchtops for sale online.
Hamptons Kitchen Cabinetry & Shelving
Shaker-style cabinetry and open shelving are most suited to the Hamptons style kitchen. Cabinetry achieved in a panelled shaker-style kitchen with graceful hooded pulls or doorknobs. At Paradise Kitchens, we can help you to build & install custom Hamptons kitchen cabinets under or above the kitchen benchtop, as well as, the island cabinetry and other cupboards in your kitchen.
Cabinetry Finish & Style
Select an all-white cabinetry finish, or choose the natural green finish, which you can combine with open shelving or glass-panel cabinet doors that will bring the outer world inside your kitchen.
Black Hardware
If you're opting for an white Hamptons kitchen, then it's vital to create some contrast with your hardware. For example, you can combine hardware such as long black handles for the cupboards; black cup pull handles for the drawers and black knobs for the upper cabinetry. Besides, you can install a black granite sink with matching tapware to lend a modern style to the kitchen, maintaining the black and white kitchen theme.
Bold & Bright Colours
Pair warm and neutral colours with coastal blues, or use different shades of blue, from baby blue to navy in a layered form all through your kitchen.
Texture
The modern Hamptons style kitchen integrated using natural and original textures all through the space that include the sink, kitchen island, handles, timber flooring and appliance finish.
Wall Panelling
Modernise the Hamptons look with the assistance of wall panelling, use it all through, from flooring to ceiling. Panelling the whole wall is a brilliant way to create a well-rounded modern Hamptons style for your home, as it harmonises other style features like wainscoting or white painted wooden kitchen cabinetry.
Pendants Lighting
Copper offers a superb contrasting effect to white, black works well to balance darker cabinetry, while steel offers a contemporary style that is recent. Select the same size pendant light series and install them on the top of your island bench for an impressive look.
