High Gloss Accessories, Decor & Gadgets We’re going to be seeing a lot of high gloss items in kitchens this year. There’s something so beautiful about the way glossy decor and accessories offset the more muted tones in a modern kitchen. Whether you opt for glossy black, shiny white, or a bold step into the realm of neon colour, you’re guaranteed to be a part of this trending movement. (Image Source: Grand Designs Live) 2. Integrated Living Spaces Open-plan kitchens are back – but it’s so much more than just taking out a wall. This year we’ll be seeing kitchens becoming a real part of the home, rather than just a simple cooking space. Gone are the days where your kitchen feels disconnected from the rest of your living space.
