The world of kitchen design can evolve so rapidly that it can be tricky to stay on track with how your space should look according to the latest advice. Whether it’s patterned worktops, metallic handles, or the surface texture of your cabinets, there’s always a new trend to incorporate to ensure your space remains fresh and stylish. But there are a few kitchen cabinet details you should avoid, according to the experts.

And thanks to the greater cost of installing new floors, countertops, and joinery, the kitchen can be one of the most expensive rooms in the house to refurb, compared to other rooms that can be updated with a fresh lick of paint and a few key pieces of furniture. That’s why it’s so important to choose cabinetry that stands the test of time. Smaller details, such as handles, can be updated without too much effort and expense, but it's important to choose kitchen cabinets that'll last for years without going out of style.
