2026 will be a year in which the kitchen emphatically claims its place in interior design. No longer a background decor for daily cooking, but a full-fledged centerpiece where materials, shapes and atmospheres merge into one whole. With the new trends Industrial Force and Wild Essence, Dekker Zevenhuizen reinforces this development; each with its own character, but both designed to make the kitchen a space you experience.
Industrial Force exudes brutalist elegance: clean lines and tough materials like concrete and metal. It is a kitchen that dares, with a high-end industrial look and attention to detail. Natural accents of stone or wood soften and warm the futuristic atmosphere.
Wild Essence, the new hotel-chic, contrasts that with warm wood textures, bold colors and natural patterns. Think organic shapes and a wild mix of materials. This trend is contrasting, with a touch of retro, and feels warm and chic.
Industrial Force and Wild Essence are two extremes, but have much in common: both trends combine strength with sophistication, make room for a touch of nature and make the kitchen an architectural statement.


This layout typifies the Industrial Force trend with bold materials, mirroring and metallic details. The new TopCore kitchen countertop Fortune forms the base as a beige-colored sandstone look that softens and warms. The subtle gold veining adds a touch of luxury to the kitchen. Combined with the dark back wall in stone look and a light concrete color, it creates a timeless, industrial trend kitchen.
Another bold kitchen where different textures come together. The beautiful red Qstone Sakura kitchen countertop has a lush pattern with white veins. This material has the look of an exclusive marble with the convenience of composite stone. Strong, non-porous and easy to maintain. Wood is added to this expressive marble look for an exciting, original mix.

Industrial Force shows how industrial design can express itself in two atmospheres. In the darker version, pronounced marble textures, such as dark marble with angular veining and light Taj Mahal shades, provide contrast and tension. A red accent enhances the bold character. The light version, on the other hand, emphasizes clarity and refinement with shades of white and gray, subtle marble and sand-colored accents. Wood and stainless steel add warmth and strength, while a Gun Metal faucet and a touch of red give the style a surprising twist.
Wild Essence is all about natural luxury and rich materials. In the dark version, deep tones, green and brown marble optics and warm metallics take center stage. The combination with wood and a gold faucet gives the whole look both earthy and chic. The light version looks calmer, with sand-colored Taj Mahal optics and a green marble texture that go beautifully with warm wood colors. Here, a copper-colored faucet and cooler wood accents provide balance and sophistication.
As in previous years, sustainability is a broad focus. Many of the new materials are available with recycled or reusable base materials and offer the luxurious look of natural stone or wood, but with the convenience of low-maintenance alternatives. Thus, design remains not only beautiful, but also responsible.
