Modern Kitchen Image Source: Curbed.com Fans of modern style interiors will love the clean lines and simplicity offered by a contemporary kitchen style. The famous Stahl House in Los Angeles still has the original 1922 kitchen that is the perfect example of how the clean look of a modern style kitchen has stood the test of time and now influences today’s modern kitchen style. Modern Kitchen Designed By Lars Remodeling & Design The modern look combines flat surfaces, strong geometric shapes, and very little hardware. Although the Stahl kitchen is dominated by wood, today’s modern style kitchens often incorporate manmade materials to give a super clean and refined look to the finished room. Commonly used materials include plastics, laminates, and ceramics. Combining natural products such as granite and wood with manmade materials can bring contrast to a modern kitchen while giving the remodel a luxury feel. To really embrace a modern style the look should be extended to all appliances, utensils, furniture, and lighting used in the kitchen. If you’re a fan of bold design choices, a clean uncluttered look, and strong angles then a modern kitchen will make a great addition to your home!

To combine modern tastes with classic styling they chose the light colored doors of a classic kitchen with a stunning white countertop, modern grey-toned tiles, and stainless steel fittings.
