For a few years now, white cuisine with a wooden worktop has been one of the favorite options for French households, but this trend is changing.
White is a timeless color and the best choice in the kitchen to be sure not to be mistaken? Not so sure. We asked Charlotte Delcroix, Product Manager Ixina, to tell us a little more about 2025 cuisine trends and the expert confirms a change of course among the French. She explains to us that so far, one in two cuisine had white facades. The customers who opt for this non-color wanted their cuisine to go through the years without having a wrinkle and especially without getting tired of a color too bright. A reasonable choice that they then compensated by adopting a colored wall in the room to energize the whole and have fun. Today, sales of kitchens with colorful facades are going upwards and white is in the phase of being dethroned.
Inspired by the creative proposals of brands like Ixina and social networks, Pinterest in mind, the French have decided to take more risk in the color of their cuisine, but while retaining a timeless choice. Goodbye white, color number 1 today is a beige tone like fine sand, cappuccino or linen. These nuances then offer a much warmer rendering than with white or even gray, still trendy a few years ago. Another color that offers a good progression among sales? Greens with olive, sage or even very dark shades. By recalling nature, green has become a real timeless kitchen side to the detriment of the Blues who are losing speed. Black, on the other hand, is always one of the choices of customers who are looking for an elegant look and they are no longer afraid of fingerprints thanks to much easier maintenance materials. On the really original color side, pink is doing well but only in the small kitchens where it is easier to dare. All these color choices are mainly adopted in matte and smooth finish, but the frame, which gives a little more relief to the kitchen, is also an option that pleases a lot.
To underline the chosen color, the laminate wooden worktop is the essential of a kitchen in 2025. The concrete aspect or even marble is another trend that progresses strongly to give a decoration of a more furniture choice wise. In terms of finishes, copper or bronze effect handles are customer favorites and add a sophisticated touch to any kitchen color.
