Slide Notes

The minimalist kitchen is ideal for a work and creativity space in a refined setting. This style also allows you to be more organized and makes your daily life easier to store and clean.

Are you tempted by a minimalist kitchen?






Minimalism is the most soothing decorating style for people who don't like clutter. It's not the most obvious decoration to adopt, as it includes organization and even lifestyle. A minimalist kitchen allows you to cook peacefully and be organized.

Discover in this article all our tips for bringing minimalism to your kitchen and organizing yourself as best as possible with storage and modular elements.


TIP N°1: Bet everything on the effects of materials for a minimalist kitchen




Wood, the basis of a warm minimalist kitchen






The minimalist style can be perceived as sometimes a bit cold. Wood is therefore ideal for bringing warmth and a timeless appearance to your room. The lighter the wood, the brighter it will be, but dark wood is not bad either, it gives a certain charisma to your kitchen while keeping a contemporary minimalist style.

A wooden or wood-effect worktop is ideal for the kitchen because it doesn't get dirty and doesn't mark easily. Which is appreciable in a space where splashes and greasy fingerprints are frequent.

You can also opt for full-height wooden furniture to give a linear and authentic look to your minimalist kitchen. Go for models right now on Homary.com! In addition, wood blends perfectly with other materials such as glass, concrete or even marble or granite.


A mineral and chic coating for a minimalist effect





And precisely mineral coatings such as marble, granite or even travertine are perfect for giving style to a refined kitchen. Because when the decoration is not very present by the objects, it is the materials that take over. So choose the components of your minimalist kitchen carefully because they will be exposed.

Marble gives an extremely chic touch to your interior and contrasts perfectly with all kinds of wood. The tones of the marble can change according to your desires for a warm or more modern contemporary atmosphere.

Travertine and granite have a slightly rougher appearance than marble and give your room a very modern look by playing on textures and trends. In addition, these materials are easier to maintain on a daily basis.


Concrete: the minimalist trend element






You will find in current trends concrete on minimalist kitchen furniture. In an atmosphere between contemporary design and wabi-sabi, concrete can work wonders indoors. It gives an original and marked raw appearance, while remaining sober.

It is found in a central island, or even in a worktop with an inground sink. Mix it with sleek black or gold taps for a guaranteed trendy style.









TIP N°2: A palette of sober colors in the minimalist kitchen



















Rather white for an immaculate side?






White is the minimalist color par excellence. This immaculate and perfect appearance gives a very clean look to any room.

You can therefore opt for a total white look kitchen or mix white with wood and the stone of your choice for a personalized result. For example, the marble will emphasize the white to bring pattern and depth.

Different categories of white are to be considered for your furniture. First the lacquered whites which reflect the light and enlarge the space. Then there is a matt white, this choice gives a very elegant and more sober look. And in the middle there is the satin white which gives a slight reflection of light in your kitchen.

White is very beautiful in a kitchen but it remains a messy color, so be sure to clean regularly with a small cloth to avoid fingerprints and other visible stains.


Or dark shades for a marked style?




A black kitchen: a bias of character






No, minimalism is not reserved for white, black is a very valid option that will bring character and elegance to your kitchen. Just like white, you can choose between lacquer, satin or matt for the texture of your furniture or paintings.

Just think that black is finally almost as messy as white, fingerprints show strongly on a shiny black surface. The matte color is then perhaps more recommended for a kitchen.


A kitchen with a personalized color choice










In the minimalist style it is true that often the colors are very neutral like white, beige, black or even gray. But it is quite possible if you wish to leave this marked path to accommodate other colors in your interior.

Just avoid a colorful kitchen which, even if it is tidy, will give a lot of visual information and counter the desired minimalist effect.

Colors like fir green, navy blue or even a few more pop elements like a touch of orange or yellow can be perfectly compatible with a minimalist kitchen. Then opt for a monochrome look or a monochrome.


TIP N°3: A minimalist kitchen with personalized layout




Bet on linear and refined furniture






The basis of a kitchen with a minimalist decor goes through the choice of furniture, because it is the most imposing part of the room. Then choose kitchen units with simple and clean lines. The purpose of minimalist decorating is to soothe and bring a breath of fresh air into your room. So remember to provide enough space and storage to keep your surfaces clear.

You can also choose to raise your kitchen furniture to give the room an effect of lightness. This visually gives more space on the floor, the room then seems larger, and space is one of the advantages of minimalism.

Then play on volumes and lights. With or without daylight, bring a feeling of well-being to your kitchen, for a minimal style but also and above all convivial.


An adapted and personalized layout






The principle of a minimalist kitchen is above all to be functional. To do this, you need to adapt your kitchen to your needs and habits.

There are different configurations for different uses. You can for example in a very minimalist style, if you have the space, opt for a storage wall, with an accumulation of closed columns from floor to ceiling so as not to crush the room. Then add a central island for the worktop, cooking area and sink. This makes it possible to have an almost completely hidden kitchen.

You can also choose a framed kitchen, with a worktop in the belly of a wall, high and low units and columns on the sides.

There are also linear kitchens without wall units for a feeling of minimalism.


TIP N°4: From decoration to clean lines




A tidy, decluttered and uncluttered kitchen space






In a minimalist kitchen, storage is king. Nothing should lie around, everything should be put away and if possible, in closed cupboards in order to limit the cluttered effect. Avoid open shelves if you have a lot of dishes to store.

Clear space on your work surface, but also on your walls in general. The kitchen must have a harmonious and relaxing atmosphere. So store as many of your items as possible in your cupboards. If possible, the ideal is to also embed your appliances and hide them behind doors that match the rest of the kitchen for a spirit of unity.


Well-selected decorative elements









Consciously choose crockery that you like and that you will enjoy using, throw away or give away what you don't use.

Once your kitchen is tidy and uncluttered, you can still bet on a few elements to decorate it.

Bet on a pretty imposing fruit bowl for the center of your island. Or a beautiful cutting board to dress up your credenza. These are two or three strong elements that will make the charm of this minimalist kitchen.


TIP N°5: The reflex to sort in a minimalist kitchen




Choose the utensils to keep






The minimalist style is felt in the decoration but it goes further than that and is part of the organization of your kitchen. Then sort through your utensils and get rid of what you have duplicated, what is no longer functional or that plastic part that is there because "you never know" when you have no idea where she comes from.

Select practical, functional and durable utensils that you use every day. Prefer a wooden version to be able to keep them on the worktop if necessary without spoiling your pretty decoration. Get into the habit of sorting through your cupboards regularly for an organized and optimized kitchen at all times!


A refined atmosphere even in the fridge






The kitchen is a word with two meanings, indeed, it designates the room but also the fact of preparing food. Which can also be done in a minimalist way. So how do you go minimalist with food?

First of all, sort and keep only the foods that have not expired. Then store them in glass jars and prefer bulk for the sake of durability. Also store your fridge using baskets and compartments.

Regularly tidying up your fridge allows you to store your food in a healthy way, and to clean it more easily. In addition, you can see more easily what you have: what is practical and soothing.


Minimalism a lifestyle in the kitchen






You will have understood that minimalism is more than decoration, it is a lifestyle. And it's perfectly suited to the kitchen: a clean room, to be able to cook in a peaceful and organized way.

Having a space freed up to share and cook encourages us to spend more time cooking for ourselves or our loved ones. It is also a friendly and above all practical space to maintain for storing, giving free rein to your creativity but above all for cleaning and tidying up.

Don't hesitate to adopt this decorative style for your kitchen, with space, beautiful materials and plenty of storage for an easier daily life!
