When you approach renovations, the best thing to do is consider your budget and when you live in a place like New York City that’s going to be a crucial point to consider.

But next to the financial constraint factors, what else do you need to think about?

Well, after you get money out of the way the next thing to consider are what the top trends are in your area and how that correlates to your own aesthetic. It’s best to keep things simple so for this, we’ll discuss the Top 5 Trends for Kitchen Styles in New York to get started.

  1. Minimalist Chic: This style is characterized by clean lines, neutral colors, and uncluttered countertops. It’s perfect for creating a serene and sophisticated atmosphere.
  2. Industrial Elegance: Inspired by loft apartments, this trend incorporates elements like exposed brick, metal accents, and dark wood. It’s a bold and edgy look that’s gaining popularity.
  3. Natural Materials: Incorporating natural materials like wood, stone, and marble is a growing trend. It adds warmth, texture, and a sense of grounding to the kitchen.
  4. Open Layouts: As NYC apartments often have limited space, open kitchen layouts are becoming more common. This allows for a seamless flow between the kitchen and living areas.
  5. Bold Colors: While minimalism is still popular, many homeowners are also experimenting with bold colors, especially in accent pieces like backsplashes or cabinetry.

Now, that you have an idea on what some of the trends are you can take a step back and look at your own likes and dislikes and begin to dissect what each of these trends caters to aesthetically. Let’s start off with discussing the Minimalist Chic trend, which includes sleek looks; cabinetry with brass hardware, grey countertops meant to induce a calming effect, open shelving and a clean look with pendant styled lighting and a simplistic appeal. If you like whites, greys and a more classical look in your bathroom this style is bound to suit your needs.

Next, we will talk about Industrial Elegance, which is characterized by exposed brick walls, usually darker gray or black cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances that complement the darker colors and seem to pop with vibrancy against the backdrop of concrete or wooden countertops and industrial light fixtures.

If suave, and breathtaking looks appeal to you, but you also have a somewhat gothic aesthetic – this is the perfect look for your kitchen.

If you, however, enjoy a more naturalist look and even a somewhat rustic aesthetic then the Natural Materials trend might be more suited to your style with its wooden countertops and cabinets along with marble accents, and stone backsplashes, combining rattan bar stools and indoor plants – this is an outdoor lover’s indoor dream. You can find a variety of diverse styles due to the range of plants you can keep indoors along with the ample types of wood to choose from when considering what colors and hardiness you prefer best.

The next trend to discuss is Open Layouts, which is somewhat self-explanatory in that it involves seamlessly integrating a space such as a living room or dining area with a kitchen. They tend to feature large islands to utilize as prepping and serving space, and open shelving or bar carts and pot racks to create a visually light feel, lighting is often bright and open to allow for a welcoming food preparation and entertainment space.

Finally, we will discuss the most fun of all these trends Bold Colors, which is exactly as it sounds featuring beautiful accent walls that come in vibrant hues like blue, yellow and even green, color cabinetry, tilework with mosaics, statement lighting fixtures and brass or gold hardware for a bold and exuberant appeal.

Now that you have some idea of the different styles that are the most popular in New York City, you can decide on which will serve your needs best according to your budget and start getting excited!

Since, a kitchen space tends to be the core headquarters for entertaining others and bringing them into the hub of your space, this can be an incredibly fun project that you can really pour yourself into. The kitchen is a space that being the heart of a home, allows you to really reflect on your full potential as a host/hostess and how that translates to your personal style.

And, since we know that getting started can be a little overwhelming when it comes to any home renovation project, taking the time to consider these various trends and how they connect to your joys and interests will take away some of that stress. Many of these trends are incredibly affordable, but if luxury is something you don’t want to scrap on, you’ll also find that there is some beautiful potential out there that facilitates a love of art (Bold Colors), plant life (Natural Materials), and essentially any other hobby one might consider.

Now, that we have some idea on the trends let’s look at some costs associated with renovation on a Low Budget, Medium Budget, and High-Budget level.

Low Budget kitchen materials generally come from big box stores (Home Depot, Lowe’s, Ikea) and tend to be items that they bought in bulk and need to clear the floor of, or items that are generic.

Medium Budget materials come from higher quality companies such as Kohler, GE, and Maytag, and they combine affordability with durability to produce long-lasting appliances and flooring.

Luxury End or High-End materials are the ones that range the most because of typically being made of marble, or being custom made wooden pieces or hardwood flooring from companies such as Ann Sacks, Dacor, and Miele.

From material costs over the last few years, on average, a Low Budget kitchen renovation in NYC costs around $25,000, and a Medium Budget around $40,000 with High-end Luxury Kitchen renovations falling in around $75,000. So, the mean cost, for a good renovation, a solid budget would be roughly $48,000.
