Looking to give your kitchen or bathroom a fresh look without a full renovation? Swapping out your cabinet knobs and pulls can make a surprisingly big impact. From mixing metals to incorporating natural textures, 2025 brings fresh, trendy ways to update your space with minimal effort.
Warm Tones Are In
In 2025, we’re seeing a shift from cool-toned finishes like nickel to warmer tones and organic materials. Matte gold and brushed brass are especially popular—they add instant warmth and elegance without requiring a full kitchen overhaul. These finishes pair beautifully with another rising trend: jewel-toned cabinets in rich blues and deep greens. If you're looking to add a bold yet timeless touch, this combination is a great place to start.
Two-Tone Cabinets + Mixed Metals
Two-tone cabinets are also making waves this year. This trend often features upper cabinets in one color and lower cabinets in another—think navy below and crisp white above. To complement this look, consider mixing your hardware finishes. Using the same knob or pull style in two different finishes—like matte black and champagne bronze—adds variety without losing cohesion.
Natural Elements
Natural elements are everywhere in 2025’s hardware trends. Think wood, stone, or leather. These earthy materials bring texture, warmth, and a handcrafted feel to kitchens and baths. Wood knobs in walnut or oak add a cozy, organic vibe, while stone pulls offer a subtle, luxurious touch. They pair especially well with neutral cabinetry and minimalist interiors, helping to soften and balance clean lines. For those craving a more grounded, nature-inspired space, this trend is a must-try.
The Rise of Grandma Chic
One fun and unexpected trend we’ve seen—both in-store and online—is what we’re calling Grandma Chic. Ceramic knobs with hand-painted flowers, animals (like ducks or geese), and vintage brass accents are flying off the shelves. These nostalgic pieces add charm and whimsy to cabinetry and work especially well in farmhouse, cottagecore, or vintage-inspired spaces. Don’t underestimate the power of a little old-school personality!
