Utah’s design aesthetic is shifting. The ubiquitous “Modern Farmhouse” is evolving into “Organic Modern” and “Japandi” styles, prioritizing warmth and texture over stark contrasts.
- Warmer Tones: Stark white kitchens are out. White oak cabinets, creamy stones, and unlacquered brass hardware are in.
- Biophilic Design: Bringing the outdoors in with larger windows, indoor plants, and natural materials like stone and wood walls is a top request.
- The Back Kitchen: Open concept kitchens are great for entertaining, but people want a “messy kitchen” or scullery behind the scenes to hide the coffee maker and dirty dishes during parties.
