Elements of a Mid-Century Modern Kitchen



Mid-century modern style gained popularity in the 1940s, and has made a successful comeback in the past few years. In this post, trusted kitchen remodeler DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Northwest Arkansas discusses the elements of a mid-century modern kitchen. We also share tips on how you can achieve the look.

Signature Features

Multiple Colors

It’s common to find multiple colors used in mid-century modern kitchens. You can add color to your kitchen by using coated steel cabinetry in pastel colors like pink, mauve, baby blue, mint green and lavender. Pair them with vivid countertops to create a vibrant kitchen design. However, keep in mind that too many bright colors can make your kitchen look too busy. That said, make sure to select colors that go well together and use that color palette for your space.

Wood Elements

When designing a mid-century modern kitchen, wood elements are crucial. If you want to avoid using multiple colors in your kitchen while ensuring the space still has a mid-century feel to it, a reliable kitchen contractor will likely recommend adding some wood paneling or cabinetry. This will make the kitchen feel earthy and warm. Keep in mind that moderation is necessary when applying wood elements because too much wood can make your kitchen look overly rustic or dated.

Natural Light

Natural light is another major element of mid-century kitchen design. It creates a lively atmosphere in your kitchen, so you should consider adding energy-efficient windows that admit more sunlight into your space. With proper orientation, these windows will further enhance your kitchen’s appeal. If your kitchen is in a location that doesn’t receive a lot of natural light, you can use light strips instead and place them along countertops for a warm glow that emphasizes the colors of your kitchen.
