9 Awful Kitchen Decorating Trends Designers Can’t Wait to Leave Behind in 2022

1. Hanging pot racks

If you love to cook on a daily basis, it’s nice to have everything you need close at hand. This is the case with all the hanging pot racks, which are definitely a kitchen trend that designers hate and hope to disappear as soon as 2022 ends.

In theory, this idea was a brilliant way to save space if you happen to have a small kitchen and make it easier to reach a pot or a pan, but in practice, it makes your space look cluttered and chaotic. If you want a modern kitchen but don’t have enough space to put everything you want in it, try to invest in built-in cabinets that are designed exclusively for pans and pots, which can diminish the need for an ugly pot rack right in the middle of your ceiling.

    Oh, really? What will you replace this with? Or will you just have bottled gas stoves and ovens send out all kinds of deadly fumes?

    Thanks for these tips. Considering opening the kitchen into our TV room somehow or with a “Bar” peninsula in between but appreciate the thoughts on the kitchen smells. Also I put white/gray subway tile surround in our new 7 foot tub master bath and shower and love it and the kitchen remodel is next….I see the subway tiles as kitchen backsplashes in a lot of my HOME magazines…curious to think that will look dated! 🙂 Thanks again!
