Contemporary Kitchens

Step into the realm of modern elegance with our contemporary kitchens. At Portree, we create spaces that inspire and elevate everyday living. Discover a fusion of high-quality, eco-conscious materials, innovative features, and seamless craftsmanship.

What is a Contemporary Style Kitchen?

Contemporary style kitchens are characterised by their sleek, minimalist design featuring clean, straight lines. There is no ornamentation, with a focus on functional items that serve a purpose while maintaining a clutter-free environment.

Contemporary kitchens often feature natural materials, such as wood, stone, and metal to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Neutral colours are typically used, although bold accents can be added with accessories.

You will find clever use of light in contemporary kitchens. Recessed lighting, pendant lights, and under-cabinet lighting are commonly used to create a well-lit and inviting space.

Contemporary Kitchen Cabinets & Doors: The Perfect Blend of Style and Function

Contemporary kitchen doors are flat with no decorations for a clean look. They have no visible handles for a streamlined appearance.

Built-in appliances are hidden to create a flow throughout the kitchen. With no door handles to customise, this style benefits from open shelving to display decorative items and inject personality into the space.

Whether you’re revamping your forever home or working in the trade and kitting out a new build, the contemporary style is a crowd-pleaser. With no distracting decorations, the craftsmanship can shine. 

Based in the Leicestershire countryside, our experienced team handcrafts the units and doors from scratch, completely bespoke. Using reliable joinery techniques and state-of-the-art tools, your new kitchen will ooze quality.

What our clients say about their Contemporary Style Kitchen

“The design was led by Adam and he made sure we gained the most out of every inch of our kitchen. Portree also made us a bespoke media unit and two storage units that matched our kitchen. Our whole house has been transformed, and we have had so many comments and compliments over our new space”

“Adam and his team have done a brilliant job from start to finish, the quality of the build and attention to detail were fantastic. While the installation was going on there was minimal mess and disruption. I was kept in the loop at all times and any issues that arose were dealt with efficiently and with minimum fuss. Would thoroughly recommend Portree”

Contemporary Kitchen Colours That Will Never Go Out of Style

The hue you choose for your kitchen can set the tone for the entire space. From the moment you wake up in the morning to the time you unwind at the end of the day, your kitchen is a place where you spend a lot of time.

Our experts can help you choose the right colours to complement your personal style and home. The size of the kitchen, the stream of natural light and the paint finish will influence the ideal scheme for your kitchen.

We use luxurious, eco-friendly paint from Little Greene that achieves an exceptional finish.

FAQs

  • How can I make my kitchen look contemporary?

    Some features you can add to make your kitchen contemporary are overlay slab cabinet doors and drawer fronts and white countertops. To keep with the sleek style, keep your surfaces free of clutter and opt for neutral colours.

  • What is the difference between modern and contemporary kitchens?

    The terms modern and contemporary are often used interchangeably when referring to kitchen design, but they actually have distinct characteristics. 

    Modern kitchen design is associated with the period of the 1920s to 1950s, while contemporary kitchens represent the current design trends and styles, which are more fluid and ever-changing. Both styles focus on simplicity, clean lines, and functionality, but contemporary kitchens have more freedom to incorporate elements from different design eras.

  • How much do contemporary kitchens cost?

    Contemporary kitchens don’t have to come at an eye-watering price. The cost of a contemporary kitchen depends on the size of your space, the appliances you choose, the material of the worktop and the type of cabinets.

    On average, you can expect to pay from £20,000 for a quality contemporary kitchen that is built to last.

  • What is the difference between transitional and contemporary kitchens?

    Transitional kitchens usually have a neutral colour palette and curved lines, whereas contemporary kitchens use both neutral and bold colours and have clean, straight lines.

  • What are the alternatives to contemporary kitchens?

    If you’re looking for a kitchen with more decoration and handles, you may prefer a Shaker kitchen. This style is all about simplicity and suits many homes.
