21 kitchen design ideas for your next reno or build

Planning a kitchen reno? First, define your goal: is it for your forever home or for resale? This will guide your budget and design choices, whether you're doing a full overhaul or just cosmetic updates.

Start your design with the layout, considering the 'working triangle'. Develop a cohesive theme using a mood board to test colours, textures, and natural materials. Prioritise practicalities like good lighting, ample storage with drawers, and choosing appliances before finalising cabinetry for a functional, beautiful space.
