Minimalist kitchens rose to popularity in the 1950s due to a population trend wherein millions moved from large, rural homes to smaller ones in cities. During this time, designers favoured a simple design and extra practicality. Today, the minimalist movement is stronger than ever. However, its development has fractured into sub-categories, ranging from minimalist industrial kitchen design, characterised by brutalist features, to minimalist Japanese kitchen design, which draws from Eastern philosophy for inspiration.

Exhibiting impressive versatility, minimalist kitchens can look and feel as warm or cool as you want, depending on how you design them. If you’re looking for a warm minimalist kitchen then the Scandi aesthetic might be of interest. Featuring wood with orange or pink hues, and draped hygge-inspired fabrics, Scandi kitchens exude warmth, even in the context of a chilli Scandinavian winter.

Homeowners commonly come to us with the assumption that minimalist kitchen décor must be white or grey. But minimalist doesn’t have to mean clinical. Indeed, there’s nothing stopping you from garnishing your minimalist kitchen furniture with charismatic colours and bold backsplashes. When it comes to kitchen décor, minimalist designs can be as colourful as your personality.
