Natural wood tones are also making a comeback and for 2020, they may be more popular than ever.  They are easily cleaned and look very modern when used on a sleek cabinet or open shelving.  Even[ mixing wood-tones with a light color](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/before-and-after-kitchen-for-a-cook) offers trendy contrast and style.   ## Surfaces Matte surfaces are still favored over glossy ones, but in 2020 glossy surfaces are going to give matte a run for its money.  Gloss makes your kitchen feel clean and modern and if your design style is anything other than traditional, you might give it a try.  Regardless of the finish, the kitchen will be easy to clean and maintain for busy families.   Expect to see more metal and glass in kitchen cabinets.  Industrial and farmhouse styles will remain popular this year, and the touches of metal will enhance this style choice.  Open frame cabinet doors with glass or frosted glass inserts will also be very popular.  You might opt for all upper cabinets to have glass fronts or just a few as an accent. As minimalism continues to grow in popularity, 2020 will see more kitchen designs with open shelving.  This is a great place to add some texture with wood grain shelving and openly display your wares.     ## Style Along with farmhouse and industrial styles, the 2020 kitchen looks clean and uncluttered.  Many designers like the simplicity of shaker style doors for cabinets.  Slab doors, which are flat, frameless fronts and are usually glossy, are modern, sleek and sometimes have hidden door pulls or none at all.    Hardware is somewhat minimized in the 2020 kitchen, taking a back seat to the beautiful cabinetry.   Think slim metallic handles or simple knobs.   ## Function Multi-purpose is the key phrase for the 2020 kitchen.  The kitchen island may have a sink or cooktop, have seating for family meals, and have substantial storage.  The island will not be used just for meal prep, but has become the family gathering place so that many can cook, do homework, or enjoy a meal.   Drawers are deeper.  Deep drawers that can hold bowls, pots, or even appliances are making access easier and are utilizing that space at the back of the cabinet.  Appliance garages for your coffee maker or mixer remain popular for the cook who hates countertop clutter.  Drawer dividers, trash storage, and appliance lifts also remain popular.   Whatever your style, we know what is trending this year in kitchen cabinetry.  We can help you design your dream kitchen.  [Contact us](https://edesiakbs.com/contact-us) today to get started! #### Recommended Articles [![Current Kitchen Trends in 2025: Layout, Finishes, and Designs](https://www.edesiakbs.com/hubfs/blog%201a-1.jpg)](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/current-kitchen-trends-in-2025-layout-finishes-and-designs) ###### [Current Kitchen Trends in 2025: Layout, Finishes, and Designs](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/current-kitchen-trends-in-2025-layout-finishes-and-designs) - [![Inset Kitchen Cabinets - What You Need to Know](https://www.edesiakbs.com/hubfs/AdobeStock_315222012-1.jpeg)](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/inset-kitchen-cabinets-what-you-need-to-know) ###### [Inset Kitchen Cabinets - What You Need to Know](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/inset-kitchen-cabinets-what-you-need-to-know) - [![2024 Kitchen Color Trends: What You Need to Know](https://www.edesiakbs.com/hubfs/AdobeStock_628153645-1.jpeg)](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/2024-kitchen-color-trends-what-you-need-to-know) ###### [2024 Kitchen Color Trends: What You Need to Know](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/2024-kitchen-color-trends-what-you-need-to-know) - #### Recommended Articles Search Article ### Popular Posts ### Stay up to date ### Recent Post ### Recent Posts [Current Kitchen Trends in 2025: Layout, Finishes, and Designs](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/current-kitchen-trends-in-2025-layout-finishes-and-designs) - 27 April, 2020 [Tech Your Kitchen Up a Notch With Smart Thermometers](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/tech-your-kitchen-up-a-notch-with-smart-thermometers) - 27 April, 2020 [Kitchen Confidential: Secrets to a Healthy Cooking Space](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/kitchen-confidential-secrets-to-a-healthy-cooking-space) - 27 April, 2020 [The Lazy Person's Guide to Bathroom Cleaning This Year](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/the-lazy-persons-guide-to-bathroom-cleaning-this-year) - 27 April, 2020 [Getting the Most Bang for Your Buck With a Kitchen Remodel](https://www.edesiakbs.com/blog/getting-the-most-bang-for-your-buck-with-a-2024-kitchen-remodel) - 27 April, 2020 ###### ABOUT THE AUTHOR ### Jessica Lewis Write some Information about the author here. who ther are, what they do, add social links.
