Shaker Kitchen Styles

Shaker kitchens... not versatile? Think again!

There's a common misconception that Shaker-style kitchens don't offer the same versatility as other designs. That simply isn't the case – and in our latest blog, we'll show you all the ways Shaker kitchen cabinetry can breathe new life into your space.

Simple, minimalist Shaker kitchens are generally seen as the more traditional option for those keen to see their kitchen redesigned from scratch. Shaker-style designs can provide a modern aesthetic, though – it's simply a case of paying attention to the detail.

For example, This simple traditional kitchen has had an injection of modern intervention with a bold black island, modern patterned worktop and trendy gold detailing. Making a real statement as soon as guests enter the space, these traditional and modern collaboration kitchens are sleek and stylish.

If you're keen to stick with tradition, you really can't go wrong with a Shaker kitchen. You can choose the detailing you'd like to make your space as true to the traditional Shaker aesthetic as you'd like – and embrace classic colours like greens and blues.

This regiment green kitchen embraces all the statements of a traditional charming country kitchen with classic wooden accessories.

The great thing about a traditional space is it won't go out of fashion like a trend-led kitchen might. So, don't be afraid to stick to your guns if you'd like a traditional kitchen – it will no doubt prove a worthwhile home investment.

Your kitchen isn't just a place to prepare dinner; it's a place to kick back and relax, too. The minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired kitchen is the way to go for the modern homeowner – and Shaker-style kitchens are nothing if not minimalist. Incorporating light colour pallets, a lot of light wood, and a bit of open shelving they’re refreshing!

The Scandinavian trend has been around for a while, but it's for good reason. After all, something about decluttering your space and clearing your worktops is just so satisfying. If you'd like to create a haven in your kitchen, Scandi style is your go-to choice – and we can help you achieve an enviable Scandi kitchen with the right colour palette, detailing and, of course, the perfect cabinetry.
