Design features for traditional kitchens

So what are the design features that are essential to creating an effective traditional kitchen? Well, there are several, including:

• Cabinet choices
• Finish options
• Wall choices

Cabinet choices

For a traditional kitchen, you should consider choosing cabinets made from wood, or laminate. Wood, and wood effect, have often been used for kitchen design, and this gives the feeling of age, and sophistication to any kitchen.

You should also consider installing embellished, or inset cabinet doors. This adds an additional layer of detail and style to your kitchen, which is perfect for a traditional kitchen.

Finish options

However, it’s not all down to the wood effect. The finish of the cabinets is also crucial. For an authentic traditional kitchen, consider opting for a matt finish.

You should also consider the trimmings and finishing touches, just like the handles and accessories in your kitchen. Choose natural materials and make sure they fit with your style. This could include brass, iron, wood, copper or steel.

Wall choices

To complete your traditional kitchen, you should consider using tiles or paint for your wall. Tiles have the added advantage of being able to be wiped clean quickly and easily, and you can also create some stylish patterns and features.
