2024 will be dominated by dark kitchen fronts and cooking islands as well as smart appliances such as the new generation of ovens and hobs, which can be controlled by app or even started on demand. New technologies make life easier for amateur chefs, as many kitchen appliances have intelligently expanded their tried-and-tested functions. Every season has its fashion colours, but the current trend for 2024 is individuality. The colour palette for the kitchen is broad. It ranges from subtle pastel shades to bold colours in dark anthracite or bright orange, which can be combined as desired.
