Recap kitchens 2025: The year when less was more

2025 has consolidated a new way of understanding the kitchen: less decorative, more lived-in.

The kitchen has evolved from a purely functional space to a setting of calm, order, and sensory experience. It hasn’t been a loud revolution, but a steady and unmistakable transformation.

1. Integrated kitchens with no visual noise

This year’s projects have embraced smooth fronts, paneling that conceals appliances, and cleaner compositions than ever before. The goal: a daytime area free of visual saturation—especially in open-plan spaces.

  • Continuous lines, tall integrated modules, and discreet details have replaced the overloaded kitchens of past years.

2. Warm, natural, and relaxed palettes

The rise of honest materials has been evident: sand, cocoa, soft greens, warm greys, and light wood tones.

It’s no longer about dazzling with striking colors, but about creating atmospheres that invite you to stay.

  • Warm metals and satin finishes are used as subtle accents, not as dominant elements.

3. Textured and stone countertops

Matte porcelain and strongly veined stones have ruled 2025. Smooth white kitchens still exist, but now coexist with compositions richer in texture, depth, and contrast.

  • Every visual choice is balanced by another: if there’s a marked vein, the furniture remains understated.

4. Rustic minimal & tactile kitchens

One of the strongest trends: kitchens that feel good. Open-pore woods, handleless fronts, soft lighting, and noble materials with a matte finish.

  • These aren’t rustic kitchens, but warm, contemporary spaces where calm prevails.

5. Functional corners: bars, coffee & wine

2025 has cemented beverage corners—coffee stations, mini home bars, and wine coolers.

Often no longer in the main kitchen, they appear in hallways, transition spaces, or integrated living areas.

  • A reflection of a lifestyle where the kitchen expands, and the home revolves around experiences.

6. Better-planned (and better-used) work zones

Perhaps unexpectedly, one of the most rethought areas has been the kitchen’s operational core: spacious worktops, good lighting, and efficient layouts.

  • Here, the water area plays a key role—not as protagonist, but as a strategic point in the workflow. Read article.

7. Practical, not decorative, sustainability

Beyond trends, 2025 has focused on durable, repairable solutions:

resistant materials, efficient faucets, easy-care surfaces, and long-lasting appliances.

Sustainability has become a design decision, not a slogan.

In summary

  • Less display, more experience.
  • Honest materials that age well.
  • Integrated, versatile designs that adapt to daily life.
  • And small corners that tell life stories—of wine, of coffee, of home.

Without a doubt, the kitchen of 2025 hasn’t sought to impress. It’s sought to stay.
