Best Kitchen designs 2013 have came in our way. We have compiled some pictures and design ideas on what we feel are some of the best kitchen designs of last year. There are thousands of wonderful and fantastic kitchen designs that were done last year and choosing from them was a nerve racking and demanding task. We have seen that kitchen designs of 2013 veered towards clean and sleek lines and using kitchen islands has become the norm. Gone were those big tables that used to be placed in the middle of the kitchen to serve as another counter top. Kitchen islands have made the housewife’s work easier and convenient. Storage space also became one of the emphasis and clever ways have been made to solve this.

Here is the list of some of the best kitchen designs 2013.

2. Kitchen Tiles

The usual kitchen tiles used on the walls near the sink area was done away with and subway tiles used instead. It made a dramatic transformation to the walls of the kitchen making it neat and compact. Using white colored subway tiles also contrasted nicely with any color interior of the kitchen.
