METOD style family to choose from

Below are the typical METOD kitchen style families.
  • Modern METOD kitchen
    Modern style kitchen blends well with both new apartments and familiar homes.
    The flat panel doors and drawers create a clean and contemporary look.
    Straight and simple lines bring a calm, clutter-free atmosphere to the space.

    In modern kitchens, matte or high-gloss finishes are often used, with white, gray and black being popular colors.
    Handles are often chosen with an inconspicuous shape or a recessed type. If you use UTRUSTA Push Opener (door only),
    It can also be a complete handleless kitchen.

    If you want to add accents, it is also recommended to add glass doors or wood-grain doors to some parts.
    When you want to enhance your luxurious feel, pairing it with a custom-made quartz composite worktop will give you a much more sophisticated look.
  • Traditional METOD Kitchen
    Traditional style kitchen is popular for many years.
    Classic painted doors with chamfers will add warmth to any family kitchen.
    You can choose from country, classic traditional, modern country, etc., to suit your preferred worldview.

    In traditional kitchens, painted doors are often used as a base, and wall cabinets are often combined with glass doors. The front panel of the door has details such as the steps of the center panel and the longitudinal grooves to create a classic atmosphere.
    Popular colors are white and cream, but you can also create a traditional kitchen based on gray.

    In traditional style, it is also important to show home appliances such as free-standing refrigerators.
    By combining home appliances with a different material from the door, you can create a more tasteful style.
    To finish it off, choose a worktop in a contrasting colour to the doors, to create a warm and inviting kitchen.
  • Industrial METOD Kitchen
    If you're looking for something a little rough, yet with a strong presence and elegance, then an industrial-style kitchen is perfect for you.
    By combining materials such as stainless steel, concrete, stone, and wood, you can create an edgy kitchen that has the ruggedness and sophistication of a "workshop".
  • METOD kitchen where you can feel the wood
    When you hear the word wooden kitchen, you may think of the kitchen of your grandma's house or the smell of freshly baked apple pie.
    Today's wood-grain kitchens retain that nostalgia and warmth, while evolving into modern, easy-to-use designs.

    Wood grain doors come in a wide range of colors, from soft colors to deep tones, and depending on how you choose the worktop and handles, you can enjoy a variety of expressions, including Scandinavian, natural, and Japanese modern.

In addition to the style families introduced here, there are many other variations of METOD kitchens.
The ability to freely mix and match styles, such as combining modern and traditional, or adding the softness of wood to industrial, is also a unique charm of METOD.
