2023 Kitchen Cabinet Hardware Trends
As we head into 2023, we are starting to see some exciting trends in kitchen cabinet hardware. From sleek and modern designs to more traditional and vintage looks, there are plenty of options to choose from to elevate the style of your kitchen.
Join us at Oak & Forge as we delve into the hottest 2023 kitchen cabinet hardware trends that we will be seeing more of over the coming months.
Mixed Materials
One of the biggest trends we are seeing is the use of mixed materials. This is a definitive U turn as mixing metals was always frowned upon in interiors through fear of ‘clashing’.
Instead of choosing just one type of hardware, many homeowners are opting to mix and match different materials, such as brass and iron, to create a unique and eclectic look. This is a great way to add some interest and depth to your kitchen cabinets.
Layering brass is a popular trend, combine unlacquered brass to develop an aged look in your kitchen over time, and pair with polished or antique brass for added depth and interest in your kitchen.
This eclectic look will elevate a kitchen, whilst certain finishes do complement each other more than others, you can experiment!
We’d always recommend moodboarding the kitchen or having a few different finishes to look at in the chosen space before committing.
Natural Wooden Knobs
Wooden knobs have always been seen as a traditional interior hardware fitting, but there’s a firm place for them in kitchens in 2023.
Natural materials like wood are very popular in kitchen design right now. Wooden knobs add warmth and texture to a kitchen, and can complement a wide range of styles, from traditional to modern.
Wooden knobs can be a great choice for a kitchen. They can add a beautiful and natural touch to your space, and will help create a warm and inviting atmosphere in your kitchen.
The best bit? They are available in so many different styles, shapes and wooden finishes to suit your needs.

Oversized Statement Hardware
Another trend expected to explode is the use of bold and statement-making hardware. This follows a similar path as lighting in a kitchen, as oversized, statement lighting has grown in popularity over the last couple of years.
Instead of choosing small and subtle hardware pieces, many homeowners are choosing larger and more decorative pieces to make a statement in their kitchens. This can be a great way to add some personality and character to your space.
Oversized hardware can be a great way to add drama, balance and functionality to a home. When used wisely, they can enhance the aesthetic and practicality of a space.
Antique-Inspired Hardware
There has also been a rise in popularity of vintage and antique-inspired hardware. This is a great way to add some history and charm to your kitchen, and can be a great way to bring some old-world elegance to a modern space.
Many interior stylists and homeowners want to be able to create a rustic twist in their interiors, and more sentimental, antique pieces help to achieve just that.
These antique inspired finishes may include one-off pieces, a mix and match of hardware or a pull towards antique, aged finishes that deliver an aged, antique inspired finish.

Matte Black Interior Hardware
As we touched on in our what colour door knobs are in style for 2023 article, matte black is a colour that is shared, and openly used through interior hardware details. It’s no different in the kitchen for 2023!
This finish has a sleek and modern look that can add some drama to a kitchen. It is also a versatile option that can complement a wide range of styles and colours.
Modern interiors demand black accents as they help to ground a room. There are a variety of matte black interior hardware details to choose from including pull handles, cup handles and standard cabinet knobs.

Cup Handles
Cup handles are enjoying a graceful resurgence in kitchens at the moment. They are a classic and timeless design that has been used in kitchens for many years. This means they can easily fit into a wide range of kitchen styles, from traditional to contemporary.
They are also easy to grab and use, and provide a comfortable and secure grip. This makes them a great option for busy kitchens where cabinets and drawers are frequently opened and closed. As well as those with limited mobility in fingers.
Cup handles add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your space, and can help make your kitchen more functional and user-friendly.
Available in a wide range of finishes, brass, iron and matte black finishes are just a few finishes tipped to be big in interiors in 2023.
