Handleless kitchen in a modern style – when less is more

The modern interior design strives for uniform design, smooth, perfect surfaces and elegant simplicity. The concept is also followed in kitchen furnishings and results in cupboard fronts that lack the classic door handles. A handle-free kitchen appears calm, harmonious and practical - it is easier to maintain. Below we reveal what else the elegant kitchen cabinets have to offer.

Planning a handle-free kitchen according to the motto 'Less is more'

The handleless kitchen stands for ultra-modern furnishings without compromising on quality and is therefore in the higher price segment. However, in order for the cabinets to open, special mechanisms are installed that are undoubtedly functional, but also have their value as a novelty in kitchen construction. With the appropriate opening support, drawers and cupboards can be opened and closed in a flash. Therefore, these kitchen designs are the best choice when cooking quickly and efficiently.

Design in a modern, minimalist style

The facility inminimalist styleevokes associations with straight-line elegance and, not secondarily, cleanliness. In order to preserve this, one thinks, it is constantly cleaned. However, without annoying decorative details and decorations, the smooth surface can be cleaned more easily and quickly. Whether fingerprints can be seen on it depends largely on the surface coating and color.

Without visible handle elements, the room appears as a whole, harmoniously related to the modern living style, which strives for simplified, simple design. Combined with white color, this impression is strengthened and the stylish character is underlined. White kitchens appear calmer and larger, another reason why this has become a trend in recent years.

Modern built-in devices can be perfectly integrated into the puristic lines without disturbing the overall picture. However, furniture manufacturers, as well as top brands such as Siemens, Miele, Bosch and etc., pursue the same simple, user-friendly look.

imIndustrial Style

Industrial and loft styles claim a lot of space - generous living space, open, flowing rooms and lots of light. The modern living style includes an attractive but also functional kitchen with sufficient work space. Because of the glazing, kitchen cabinets usually cannot be mounted on the wall, which is why the storage space refers to the base cabinets. No loss of storage space is desired and various possible solutions are possible.

The shutters can be opened and closed using gentle pressure. Which is a very good option for people with back problems, as the drawers can also be opened with the knee or hip. The system is both effortless and silent and can be used mechanically or electronically.

Mechanically or electronically, the cabinet door is tapped at a certain point with the fingertip, whereupon the opening support switches on. The mechanical version opens the door so far that you can reach inside. Electronically, it works according to the touch principle, whereby the pressure points are very sensitive.

Handleless kitchen allows other accents in the room to dominate and really come into their own. Decoration, home textiles and wall painting can be temporarily designed differently, while the high-quality kitchen equipment lasts significantly longer and is considered a long-lasting investment. Why does it make sense to choose a simple, timeless design, for example in white, and arrange it individually with other furnishings.

A modern kitchen may be the best choice if a coat of paint in the same area is desired. Intense colors can make small rooms visually cramped, but the straight lines balance and are a great basis for bold solutions.

harmonious,in connection with the rest of the facility

When it comes to color selection, the trend is not only variations of white, but also light pastel colors. Transferred from fashion, these also appear particularly fresh and friendly in the home. High-gloss panels come in a wide range of colors that could also be used in other areas of the home.

High gloss for the fronts and wood on the floor is one of the leading trends not only in the area of ​​kitchen design, but in modern interior design in general.

Color accentsin the modern facility

The particularly simple concept of this facility leaves room for different implementations of materials. Combinations of high gloss and glass due to their reflective feel make rooms appear more spacious and significantly brighter. Accents made of natural stone or metal complete the 'cool' design.

Another variant are the handle strips. These serve like conventional handles, but are integrated as an edge at the top or side of the drawers and doors. They only appear as a narrow gap between the kitchen parts, but mathematically they mean a loss of storage space because they take up part of the available space.

Rounded shapes in a minimalist style

A modern kitchen with a kitchen island is minimalist and straightforward, but at the same time really functional. This often saves a lot of cooking steps. Combined with the intelligent opening support, cupboards and drawers can be opened easily when there is no longer a free hand. The opening function needs to be pre-programmed so that everything doesn't just open when you walk past.

Handleless is not necessarily minimalist and clean. However, these are for certain opening systems that are optional for furniture in every style of living. The example shows a bright, spacious eat-in kitchen in a modern country house style.

MaterialsCombine– Wood and white high gloss

The combination of materials with different looks is currently a top trend. High gloss and wood, white and stainless steel or natural stone are just some of the possible options. When it comes to a successful color concept, it is important that the style line is understandable from the start.

The wooden kitchenismodern and cozy

Modern kitchen made entirely of wood and without door handles definitely looks promising. In the example, this is partially equipped with visible cabinet handles and handle strips made of aluminum. The glossy kitchen wall in petrol blue adds a fresh, modern touch.

Kitchenmade of wood with kitchen island

Modern kitchen with a wooden island in two different looks is an interesting variant of the traditional wooden kitchen. The two wood colors harmonize primarily because of the symmetrical proportions and straight lines. The floor covering and work surface are neutrally designed.

Modern furniture design knows no boundaries and prefers to abolish those that have already been established. This means that door handles cannot be described as usual and handleless cupboard doors cannot quite be described as such.
