Cabinet hardware are often the smallest details in the kitchen that have the greatest impact. Whether you’re looking to design new or remodel your kitchen, you should stay in the loop with all latest and inspiring trends.
Warm golds and matte black finishes are at the forefront of modern designs and are on trend this year. The defining concepts of 2022 hardware trends are simplicity, functionality & timeless designs!
David Sliney, VP of sales and business development for Pride Industrial asserted that finishes are classically driven by the more expensive purchases such as faucets, lighting fixtures as well as colors and styles of the cabinets. Like a beautiful dress needs accessorizing, a well-designed kitchen should use the cabinet hardware as jewelry for the kitchen.
Sliney also mentions the use of texture as well as elegant and intricate details that perfectly integrate into a contemporary style, balance the contrasts within the kitchen. New trends are heading towards the use of floating shelves on walls, pops of bold colors against neutral and darker ones, and outstanding attention to detail on decorative hardware, tiled backsplashes, and texture on surfacing material.

He continued saying that new striking, inspiring & full of life cabinet painted colors are greens, yellows, black & blues to be considered as 2022 on-trend color palettes. Greens range from hunter green to light sage, and yellow ranges from soft butterfly yellow to brighter shades.
Hardware finishes of matte black and warm rose gold work so well with these surface tones that they will continue to be the hottest finishes in 2022 as they exquisitely add charm and perfectly enhance your cabinet’s design.
From modern farmhouse to minimalist designs, another hardware finish breaking through ‘the sea of satin-nickel sameness’ is a rich tone of matte gray, also known as Dark Pewter introducing a modern and sleek look that stunningly contrasts with light-colored cabinetry. Combining bold and minimalist look, it perfectly complements black or dark stainless appliances and many of the hard surfaces.
Mixing & Matching is another continuing trend to underscore unique kitchen spaces. Designers & homeowners are taking advantage of the broader availability of knob & pull finishes within collections along with extended sizes to boldly mix & match sizes & finishes from the kitchen cabinets to the island spaces. Thoughtful combinations of handles and knobs pull together different values, coordinate the whole design of the kitchen, and give it that one-of-a-kind look. Utilizing oversized pulls ranging from 8” to 12” are quickly becoming the go-to selection and mixed metals are gaining popularity such as gold wire mesh combined with flat black pulls and knobs.
