It depends on which aspect of kitchen design interests you. In terms of kitchen cabinet colours, warm tones and pastels are trending as a base backdrop in 2025. Our Highland Stone is particularly popular. As for cabinets, glass-fronted pantries are gaining considerable momentum.

Warmth is on the horizon, with red, yellow and oranges kitchen cabinet doors rising quickly. This is particularly evident in modern and handleless ranges, and their momentum shows no signs of slowing. No doubt, they’ll probably be an even bigger hit in 2026.

Any kitchen can look good so something going “out of style” is subjective. If you like a particular style, that’s fine. That said, we have noticed a trend in homeowners opting less for solid white kitchens or ranges that primarily comprise cool greys.

Any kitchen can be timeless. The key to giving it longevity is to make a neutral colour prominent, either on the wall units, floor units, island or all three. That way, you won’t overpower it with any transiently-trending bold colours that will date it in a few years. So, in essence, greys and pastels offer kitchens a timeless backdrop.

At Masterclass, we advise homeowners choose kitchen worktops that are primarily black or white because they have the capacity to complement most accessory colours as your tastes evolve. If you want to add an element of pizzazz, perhaps select a countertop with a marble effect for extra intricacy.

Both traditional and ultra-modern, handleless kitchen islands are popular in 2025. Choosing one is more a matter of taste than popularity. One thing we can deduce, however, is that coloured kitchen islands are thriving, whether they’re green, blue or pink. Just be sure to pair them with a neutral base in a two-tone kitchen for long-term impact.
