You seek order and structure, but you also aspire to the high life. And your ideal kitchen should be a blend of both. Handle-less cabinets and high-tech appliances neatly compartmentalised would create the streamlined look you crave. The sleek, modern style is versatile enough to carry different colours, but use them as accents while keeping the rest of your space in a neutral hue.

Old-school you loves a kitchen that is a blast from the past. Choosing a retro-style refrigerator and cook stove can lend an authentic feel to your cooking zone. Play with surfaces: a funky backsplash, black-and-white floor tiles, and glossy, bright-coloured kitchen cabinets.

There’s nothing you would love more than to live on a farm. But since you can’t, you are willing to settle for a farmhouse kitchen. Say yes to barn-inspired panel doors for your kitchen cabinets, subway tiles, rustic wooden countertops and a big, old-fashioned worktable that is hardworking and functional. White, black and wood tones work best in this style.

You are confident, unpretentious and possibly even aloof. The industrial style kitchen would be your best fit. It is full of character but the style can appear harsh and cold. Go for polished cement floors and walls, stainless steel countertops and metal furniture like galvanised chairs. Introduce wood surfaces to invite a bit of warmth.
