Are you ready for some kitchen design trends for 2023? I’m calling it “the modern European kitchen”. It has an old world collected fell with a few modern touches.
Here are the top trends:
- Floating Marble Shelving
- Large natural stone slabs as the back splash
- High contrast marble – white marble with dark grey/black veins
- Mix of collected pieces including oil paintings, wooden chopping boards so the kitchen doesn’t feel “brand new”
- Mixed metals and materials – the hardware on the fixtures do not have to match
This kitchen below by Carley Summers featured in Architecture Digest has all the design trends I mentioned above.



While a lot of the kitchens do not feature upper cabinets, this one does below!

This kitchen below features a 20′ floating marble shelf!


Another feature is a pot rack behind the range, as pictured below.

This high contrast marble is called Calacatta Viola.







These are all very beautiful kitchens. You can get a similar feel too without remodeling. Just style your kitchen with some similar pieces: place an antique oil up against your backsplash, a few chippy vases found at the antique mall or flea market, ironstone, wooden chopping boards (aka charcuterie boards), wooden spoons… or you can shop my widget below.
