Which METOD style families can I choose?
  • Modern METOD kitchens
    Modern kitchens can look great in almost any home, whether you have a newly built flat or a hundred-year-old house. The sleek flat-panel cabinet doors and drawers will give your kitchen a more modern look. Clean simple lines will create a calm and uncluttered feeling in your space. 

    Modern kitchens are generally designed with a matte or high-gloss finish, with white, gray, and black being the most popular. Modern kitchens have discreet or recessed door handles, and some can even be completely handleless with the UTRUSTA door opener device. Appliances are preferably integrated and hidden behind cabinet doors whenever possible. To further highlight your modern kitchen, you can add contrast with decorative doors often in glass or with a wood finish. To enhance a more luxurious look, consider adding a custom-made countertop in quartz, ceramic or glass composite.
  • Traditional METOD kitchens
    Traditional kitchens design, remains popular year after year and for good reason. The classic painted cabinets with bevelled detail give off a comfortable warmth that works perfectly in any family home. Whether your style is more rustic, classically traditional, or modern country, there is a traditional kitchen for you. 

    Traditional kitchens often have painted doors, often combined with glass doors on the upper cabinets. The fronts include details such as frames with a raised central panel or grooves that reinforce the classic character. White and cream are the most popular colours, but you can also create a traditional kitchen in shades of grey, green or blue. In this style, appliances are part of the look, so it is common to combine freestanding refrigerators and freezers or other contrasting appliances. To complete the look, choose a kitchen worktop which contrasts with the doors and gives the space a warm and inviting touch.
  • METOD industrial kitchens
    A pinch of robustness, another of solidity and a touch of elegance. If you are looking for a kitchen that brings together all these ingredients, the Industrial Kitchen It may be the right choice. This rustic look combines materials such as stainless steel, concrete, stone and wood to create a functional and elegant kitchen, with an urban charm and admittedly unfinished.
  • METOD wooden kitchens
    The thought of a wooden kitchen brings back memories of grandma's house: hours at the stove and the comforting smell of a freshly made apple pie. METOD wooden kitchens keep that cosy thing going, but add modern lines, practical solutions and smart storage for today's everyday life.
There are many other styles of METOD kitchens that combine elements of the different style families mentioned. The METOD system gives you the freedom to mix and match to your liking and create your dream kitchen!
