Kitchen Styles
Modern
A modern kitchen can encompass just about any style and finish, however there are a few traits that tend to set a “modern” kitchen apart from other genres.
Modern kitchens typically utilise modern appliances and finishes to accompany the cabinetry. Given that house designs are changing rapidly a modern kitchen should complement modern architecture, a houses position and its surroundings.
Country
A country style kitchen as the name implies tends to incorporate a slight “farm house” or rural feel in its design and finishes. Some appliances, pots, pans and utensils are typically out and accessible rather than being stored away out of site when compared to a modern kitchen.
A country style kitchen will also typically utilise natural timber in its construction or as the benchtop instead of stone for example.
Hamptons
Hamptons kitchens in many ways is a blend of modern and classic/coastal kitchen design. Hamptons kitchens are typically very functional and welcoming and family friendly but have a casual beachy vibe that sets it apart from modern styling.
V grooved wall panelling/ door panelling or island back panels are small touches that are typical of a Hamptons design.
Hamptons kitchen typically utilise allot of white or limewashed looking panels to again enhance the beach aspect.
French Provincial
French provincial as the name suggests originated in France but each region often puts its own “spin” on the style. This could be by using material that was readily available from the region or something from the area that may have set it apart from other regions.

This is very much a personal choice and can depend on the look or style of kitchen and joinery you are considering. In general stone benchtops are used in kitchens of higher finish and quality where Laminate benchtops tend to be installed in situations where a budget needs to be considered.
This is a very personal choice but ultimately can come down to the budget allowed for the area, the required finish, or the environment the area may be subjected to. Painted doors are the top of the line when it comes to door finish but the ever growing range of laminates are making laminate options increasingly popular and even a mix of both.
