May is the perfect month to consider re-modeling your kitchen.  The longer, lighter, warmer days make the prospect of installation slightly less daunting.  If you have been considering a new kitchen the Contour studio in Montpellier is a good place to start. 

Colours

Greys are still very much on trend with our platinum and concrete doors proving a big hit with clients.  Grey has a calming influence and industrial feel therefore teaming it with popular accent colours such as petrol and denim blue can make a dramatic interior statement.  

Metallics

Copper, gold and brass have grown in popularity over the last 18 months.  For those who don't want to invest in permanent fittings such as lighting and taps, alloy colours can be introduced into the kitchen via antique mirror splash backs and metallic wallpapers.

Discretion 

The days of having separate rooms for kitchen and dining are fast disappearing.  Homeowners are increasingly looking to open out the downstairs space in to a multifunctional kitchen/dining/living zone.  This has challenged our furniture brand Leicht to develop ways in which to hide the more utilitarian areas of the kitchen.  The use of pocket doors to hide prep areas are popular and on display in our studio.  Our aim is not to make the kitchen area slide into submission but merely make it sit harmoniously alongside dining and relaxation zones.
