7 creative ways to add pattern to a kitchen

Kitchen design has evolved a lot recently, perhaps more than any other room in the home. For many of us, what used to be a largely practical space, is now the heart of the home, where precious free time is spent with loved ones, preparing and sharing meals. In light of this shift, we no longer want this key space to be sterile – reminiscent of industrial kitchens, defined by cold shiny surfaces.

Instead, we want to enrich our cooking spaces with character and coziness, so they feel like an extension of the rest of our home. One of the best ways to do this is through decorating with pattern, and with the input of a panel of interior experts, here we explore some of the ways you can enhance your kitchen with motifs and marking.

1. Try a terrazzo

Large-format terrazzo tiles bring big pattern energy that can shake things up. ‘The terrazzo flooring here adds drama and an element of chaos to the space, in response to the calm and assured walnut kitchen and muted paint tones,’ agrees Guy Derwent, director at Guy Derwent Architects.
