Having looked at launches at Salon de Mobil Milan and other furniture exhibitions kitchen trends for 2023 are set to see kitchens designed in new and more interesting materials and finishes which is why we believe Fantin is a very exciting brand to be launching at this time.
The colour trends forecast for 2023 are likely to see us creating soothing and comfortable spaces, in colours inspired by the outdoors, sage greens and warming hues of mustard and ochre contrasted with burnt rich earthy tones. Black kitchens are also having a big rise in popularity, especially using layers of black.
Kitchen design evolves over time as our lifestyles change. We are going back to seeing the kitchen as being the heart of a home where we eat, work and socialise. Freestanding kitchen units offer much versatility and the Fantin range is designed to last. Kitchens can be a big investment and freestanding units can be taken with you if you move home.
