Kitchen Handles Built With Care

There are many things in a kitchen to consider, and cabinet handles might not be the first ones to come to mind, right? But they are as important as the designer panels you chose for those cabinets, those tiles you chose for the walls, and those wooden panels you chose for the windows. In short, they need to be in total sync with other decor in the kitchen; no matter how small these cabinet handles might seem, they can disarray the rhythm of your whole interior design.

This blog will ensure that your beautiful modular kitchen isn’t compromised just because of these handles. Let's learn how to embellish your kitchen with trending modular handles.

How To Choose Kitchen Handles

Here are some of the steps you could consider to choose the right kitchen handle design constructively instead of guessing:-

• Style of the cabinet- When closed, your kitchen cabinets might not look anything different from a simple 2-dimensional panel, and those handles work as a three-dimensional ornament. Now, if it doesn't match the style of the background, it would be jarring to the eye! Your modular kitchen cabinet handles should complement the style of your cabinet. Is it rustic? Put some arched handles over it. Is it modern minimalist? Keep some recessed handles to maintain that sequence. Whatever it is, the style of the cabinet is one of the most significant things to consider when deciding its handle.
• Usage and Needs- The real work of the kitchen cabinet handle is to open the cabinet swiftly. The weight, size, and amount of stuff you will put inside decide what type and size handle you need to fix. Otherwise, that cabinet could very easily dismantle itself and come falling down on your leg as you try to open it!
• Material and Colour- Normally, colours are not much of a consideration for handles; instead, the texture of the material a handle is made of, or the polish decides the look and feel of the cabinets.

Types of Kitchen Handles

Let's see some modern kitchen handle designs for you to choose from.

T-bar Handles

T-bar handles are the most commonly used kitchen handle design due to their simple aesthetic, which goes with most kitchen designs and is very efficiently functional. Thanks to their shape and design, they are strong and do not clutter your hands. You can use different materials according to your kitchen style'ceramic t-shaped handles look best with minimalist or texture-based cabinets, wooden ones go very well with cabinets that have a rustic texture, and the most off-beat glass ones can be used with dark metal-based cabinets.

Bow Handles

These bow-shaped handles have been in kitchens for a long time, and we have a tribute to pay to them. You must've seen these handles in your ancestral homes. They are timeless pieces of art that never go out of trend. You can use their subtle shapes with matte dark-coloured polish to contrast with flat panel or shaker-style cabinetry.

Knobs

Again, these knobs are part of our ancestral legacy, they give a very rustic vibe, and hence they are used in vintage-styled kitchens with framed panels and mute royal colours. You can use knobs made up of brass, as the colour and polish of brass is enough to create the homage you want to give to these age-old kitchen handle designs.

Cup Cabinet Pull

These half-moon-shaped, classic-styled handles provide one of the best grips, making them equally efficient to the beauty of its classic old-money aesthetic. Though they are not flexible in terms of finding mates, but, if you are a person who loves the old-money aesthetic and wants to arrange a vintage kitchen design, then these are your best choice.

Recessed Handles

Recessed kitchen cabinets are one of the best modular kitchen handle design options. They are sleek, simple, and minimalistic in design. They do not ask for much maintenance, nor do they have to be polished regularly. Best of all, they are almost invisible! They have a metal lining that you can see through the racks and cabinets, creating a line-based rhythm around your whole kitchen.

Arch Pulls

Arched pulls are again one of the classic ones, and these classic designs keep coming back into trend. You must have seen these types of cabinet handles in your bedroom almirahs and racks, in wooden kitchen cabinets, or in a kitchen dominated by wooden fixtures. These handles go in sync and create a very classic, earthly feel to the space.

Handleless

The handle-less design of cabinetry feels so luxurious and modular that it can match any material and add luxury to your kitchen. These type of cabinets just have a bit of open window between racks and work totally on hydraulics. Mix it with ceramic material, and you have a brutalist design ready for your kitchen. Use wood in the cabinets and you have a luxurious countryside kitchen cabinetry ready.
