The interior design world has been taking a turn for the more natural side of things for a while now, and with the rise of biophilic design, this trend isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. The beautiful thing about nature-inspired design is that it doesn’t go out of style. The beauty of nature is everlasting, and at the same time, it also soothes us. In fact, a study from the University of Pennsylvania even found that spaces with natural elements have a positive effect on our moods.
So, if you’re looking to create your own natural kitchen to connect with our surroundings and bring a bit of the great outdoors inside, you’re in the right place. At Savoy Timber, we like to stay up-to-date with the latest laminate kitchen worktop style ideas and general kitchen trends. So, with that in mind, here are the top four things we think would look great in your nature-inspired space.
One of the best ways to breathe new life into your kitchen space is to apply a fresh coat of paint and switch out your laminate kitchen worktops. These adjustments alone can make a dramatic difference to the overall feel of your room without the need for a major renovation project. When it comes to colour palettes, we have a few suggestions.
The first and most important step is to select the colours that make you the happiest and feel right. However, if you’d like some natural suggestions from us, we’d recommend sticking to the shades you often see in nature’s colour palette, like earth tones, soft greens, blues, and warm neutrals. All of these can be applied to walls, cabinets, worktops, and accessories (wherever you like!).
If you decide to switch out your laminate kitchen worktops, we’d recommend sticking to a wood or stone-style finish like our Walnut Block Wilsonart 40mm Worktop or Urban Stonecrete Oasis 40mm ABS Square Edge Worktop.
Leading off from our last point, when it comes to choosing materials for your kitchen, keep things as organic-looking as possible. Now, this doesn’t mean that you have to go out and buy real wood or stone countertops. You just need something that gives the illusion of natural material, and there are plenty of ways to achieve the look on a budget. Nowadays, there’s a wide range of laminate worktops on the market that imitate the natural look and feel of real wood or stone, and you can find them right here at Savoy Timber! Our solid laminate worktops are the ideal choice for those who are looking for a durable and stylish work surface on a budget. They’re not only visually appealing but they’re also built to withstand the demands of daily use, making them perfect for busy households.
One of the easiest ways to bring a sense of nature to and brighten up your kitchen is to let as much natural light in as possible. Clear window sills of clutter and appliances, and remove any dark or thick curtains/blinds to allow the sun’s rays to fill your space. Natural light can make a world of difference in creating a warm and inviting atmosphere while also highlighting the beauty of your kitchen’s new natural features. When you let in more light, you’re also reducing the need for artificial lighting, which can also help save on energy costs (win-win)!
No natural kitchen would be complete without some actual nature! That’s why adding plants in any form is an essential final step. You can add vases of flowers to the countertop, hang potted plants from the ceiling, go bold with a potted tree or even grow herbs in a windowsill planter. Whatever your style, adding greenery to your kitchen will not only enhance its natural beauty but also improve the air quality and create a healthy and peaceful environment for you and your family to enjoy.
