2025 Kitchen Design Trends for Ohio Homeowners

2025 Kitchen Design Trends for Ohio Homeowners

As the days get longer and the air a little warmer, spring is the perfect time to freshen up your space, and what better place to start than the kitchen? At Clazak Kitchen & Bathroom, we’ve been paying close attention to the latest design trends for 2025. Let us tell you that this year is all about bringing warmth, personality, and timeless texture into your home.

Gone are the days of stark white kitchens with cookie-cutter cabinet doors. Homeowners across Ohio are leaning into color, contrast, and character. Whether you’re planning a full-scale kitchen remodel or just gathering inspiration for a future project, here are the top 2025 kitchen trends that we’re seeing in real homes right now.

1. Greens in Design: Nature’s Favorite Hue is In

If there’s one color dominating kitchens in 2025, it’s green. From soft sage to deep forest tones, green is showing up everywhere, on cabinets, walls, tile, and even islands.

Why the shift? Green brings a calming, organic feel to a space. It works beautifully with natural wood accents and adds richness without overwhelming the room. It’s also incredibly versatile:

  • Olive or sage cabinets pair well with brushed gold or black hardware.

  • Hunter green islands offer a bold contrast with quartz countertops or lighter cabinets.

  • Green tile backsplashes add just the right amount of interest without feeling too trendy.

At Clazak, we love helping homeowners incorporate greens in subtle ways that feel fresh yet timeless.

2. Less White, More Wow: Saying Goodbye to the Sterile Look

For years, all-white kitchens have ruled Pinterest boards and remodeling shows. But in 2025, homeowners are shifting away from stark whites and embracing warmer, more layered palettes.

We’re seeing a rise in:

  • Creamy neutrals instead of pure white

  • Natural wood tones with visible grain

  • Earth-toned cabinetry and stone surfaces

  • Deep blues, matte blacks, and of course, greens

This doesn’t mean white kitchens are gone forever. It just means they’re evolving. Today’s remodels are more about balance and personality than minimalism. The new goal? A kitchen that feels inviting, lived-in, and totally you.

3. Texture is King: Layering Materials for Depth

One of the most exciting kitchen trends for 2025 is the use of mixed materials to create texture and depth. Instead of everything matching perfectly, today’s kitchens combine different surfaces and finishes for a more curated look.

Here’s how we’re seeing this play out:

  • Mixing matte and glossy finishes (e.g., matte cabinets with glossy tile)

  • Combining wood, quartz, and metal in one cohesive space

  • Using handmade tiles, plaster range hoods, or textured cabinet fronts

This trend allows your kitchen to feel custom, high-end, and totally unique to your home. And at Clazak, custom is what we do best.

4. Cabinet Profiling: Moving Beyond the Shaker

While shaker-style cabinets have been the default for the last decade, 2025 is ushering in more detailed cabinet designs. From reeded fronts to beveled or arched panels, homeowners are looking for cabinetry that acts as a design feature, not just a storage solution.

Some of our favorite cabinet styles this year include:

  • Fluted or slatted panels for a natural, spa-like look

  • Inset cabinetry for a clean, furniture-style finish

  • Arched upper cabinets or glass fronts to soften the room

Even a small change in your cabinet profile can make a big difference. If you're remodeling, this is one area where you can instantly modernize your kitchen without going overboard.

5. The “Unfitted” Kitchen Look

Another trend gaining popularity in 2025 is the unfitted kitchen, where cabinetry and appliances are designed to look more like individual pieces of furniture. This breaks up the long lines of cabinetry and gives your kitchen a cozy, lived-in feel.

Think:

  • Standalone pantries

  • Furniture-style islands with legs

  • Open shelving mixed with closed cabinets

  • Contrasting cabinetry (like wood lowers and painted uppers)

The goal is to make the kitchen feel like it’s been thoughtfully collected over time, not just installed all at once.
