Natural countertops and a subway tile backsplash set off this kitchen.

Do you love the warmth of a traditional kitchen just as much as you love the crisp coolness of a contemporary kitchen? Can’t decide which style to go with? Why not go with both?

A transitional kitchen is a new style of interior decorating that fuses the warm woods and natural elements of the traditional kitchen with the sharp minimalism of the contemporary kitchen. Read on to learn if a transitional kitchen is right for you!

Neutral Colors

Rather than having a bold, punchy palette, transitional kitchens lean on neutral colors for a clean, monochromatic effect that is still warm and inviting. Different shades of a color that all share the same tone add variation to the design, and a few accent colors are even allowed, as long as they share the same tone as the rest of the room.

Crisp Cabinetry

Cabinetry in a transitional kitchen have a streamlined look with a few traditional touches. These cabinets are generally made of wood with charming paneled doors. Neutral colors and sleek hardware give the warm wooden cabinets a contemporary feel.

Different Textures

A hallmark of transitional kitchens is the mix of natural elements, like wood and stone, and man-made elements, like stainless steel and lacquer. The juxtaposition of organic and man-made materials creates a dynamic atmosphere that is sleek and modern while being simultaneously warm and inviting.

Streamlined Tile

Transitional kitchens will often interpret tile in new and exciting ways. For example, rather than having a traditional basketweave tile backsplash, a transitional kitchen may instead have classic tumbled tiles in a stacked grid.
