As a mom of two, I spend hours in the kitchen. From preparing breakfast, packing lunch boxes to cooking dinner. Let’s be honest ladies, kitchens are THE hot spots in our homes, both figuratively and literally. Here are some simple ways to keep this space functional with a modern flare for your next new home or renovation.

 1. Combine natural wood texture with neutral-coloured cabinets and furniture

Go minimalist with this style if you have natural finished floors or cabinets. Add neutral colour furniture (white or grey) to the space to add a clean look to your home.

2. Add a statement piece

Whether it is unique lighting fixture, modern art pieces, or colourful decors, these statement pieces sets a new tone in your kitchen. Match your furniture with similar colour palettes to create  a magazine look-a-like.

3. Less walls, more windows

To step up this look, plant your favourite greenery right outside the window, and allow natural beauty to blend into your everyday activities inside your home.
