See all 111 Luxury ideas for kitchens. These designs will blow you away with their beautiful kitchen counter tops, backsplash, islands, cabinets and more.
Depending on the homeowner, what constitutes as an amazing luxury kitchen can vary. For those with modern interior design leanings their dream kitchen will feature glossy, flat-paneled cabinetry, lots of horizontal lines and natural materials. A lover of country kitchens will likely choose Shaker-style cabinetry, a large farmhouse sink, as well as a mix of butcher block and marble surfaces. However, there are particular design elements that exude luxury wherever they are installed.
Solid stone surfaces are always luxurious. Whether they are marble or granite, these surfaces are an essential part of an amazing kitchen. When choosing a solid surface for your kitchen it is important to consider the features of the material. While both are durable, granite is much tougher than marble and less susceptible to scratches and chipping. Marble is more porous which can cause it to absorb stains if not properly sealed. Granite and marble both need to be sealed every few years to maintain their integrity. However, when properly cared for both granite and marble are sure to last for many years to come.
Another feature seen in luxury kitchens is high-end appliances. In the past, stainless steel has been the style of choice, but more recently homeowners have begun experimenting with retro, white or black appliances, depending on their design aesthetic. High-end appliances are designed with equal amounts of function and design in mind. Therefore, they tend to exude luxury in comparison to lower-end models. Gas ranges are often considered to be ideal for their ability to quickly cook food at a consistent temperature. Additionally, other luxury features can include multiple burners, convection ovens and the ability to cook multiple dishes at one time. Your kitchen contractor or interior designer will be able to help you choice the best appliances for your space based on your practical needs and design style.
Large, custom islands are another element often found in a luxury kitchen. The size of an island will vary depending on the square footage available but is nonetheless valuable as to offers additional space for food prep and an area for guests to congregate while a meal is being prepared. Custom islands can feature details like decorative legs, beadboard, open shelving and even space to incorporate a sink, cooktop or microwave. An elegant addition to an island is the installation of countertop that extends to the floor, providing a waterfall effect. If space allows, a truly spacious kitchen can even accommodate multiple islands to serve the various functions performed in the space.
While not often considered, an abundance of windows and natural light can be a lavish feature in a kitchen. Smaller kitchens are not afforded to luxury of windows as they tend to take up valuable space typically used for upper cabinetry. However, a large kitchen, depending on its location within the home, can often accommodate both windows and upper cabinetry. The result is a space that is airy, inviting and ideal for hosting family and friends.
