The Best of Houzz Awards 2017 are coming up, but before that happens, we wanted to see what kitchen designs from Singapore are being saved in their ideabooks not only by Houzz Singapore users, but Houzzers worldwide. Here’s what we found:
Shiny, shimmering, splendid
A lot of us are magpies, attracted to shiny objects! This ‘bling bling’ kitchen with its silver honeycomb tiles backsplash was the most saved design from Singapore. Houzzers around the world like it so much that another photo of it (below, more pulled back) was also in the top 10!

Stealth and super-functional
This kitchen won Best of Houzz Awards 2016 – and that was before Houzz Singapore was launched! And it’s still very popular, due to all its secret compartments. Comments of Houzzers saving it to their ideabooks include:
“I like the deep cabinets with compartments for better organisation of pots and pans, etc.” – azita99
“All is too cool.” – cannondale6

Clean monochromatic scheme and sleek lines
The stark, contrasting palette of this galley kitchen is its main draw, followed by its stainless steel backsplash. Houzzers have also commended its simplicity.

Blue-ribbon design
Yes, its bold blue colour makes this kitchen a favourite on Houzz. The patterned cement tiles make sure this blue space is anything but blah; the gold pendant lamps and wooden bar stools add warmth to it.

Crisp and fresh
The classic combination of wood and white makes this a popular kitchen – “Nice mix of white and wood,” Mireille Micallef said. Many Houzzers also liked it for its island with bookshelf.

Faux wood for the win
Tiles with a wood look clad the floor and walls of this kitchen, and this uniformity is why many Houzzers have saved it to their ideabooks. Houzzers also like the split-level kitchen island and dining table.

Clean and classic
The clean layout and classic cabinetry of this design are its most cited features. Houzzers also like the black-and-white tile application and the pop of edginess brought by the Konstantin Grcic bar stools.

Modernist lines
Its sleek, intelligent design – ‘moveable socket,” Chin Aik noted – is why this kitchen has been saved to many ideabooks. Houzzers also like the timber screen and timber-and-white combination.

Small takes the spotlight
Despite its compact size, this kitchen boldly took on grey floors, cabinets and backsplash – and Houzzers took notice. Many also like its lighting design.

Material world
The butcher-block style dining table, stainless steel backsplash and concrete surfaces were specifically noted by Houzzers as they saved this kitchen to their ideabooks. They also like the organisation features on the stainless steel backsplash.
