Welcome to 2020 where the modern kitchen is for more than just cooking. From entertaining visitors, to family meals and helping the kids with homework, it’s certainly the multifunctional heart of the home.
It’s crucial then that the kitchen works practically and visually, since we spend so much time there. In fact, according to research on Australia’s cooking landscape from McCrindle, almost three in four Aussies are likely to prepare five or more of their seven weekly dinners at home. Over a lifetime, that’s a lot of meals, which explains why we obsess over the details – everything from the appliances to benchtops, sink to splashback and cabinetry to cutlery.
With over 60 years of innovation, Westinghouse is now offering sophisticated dark stainless steel designs for a brand new kitchen range. In addition to looking sleek and on trend, the new Aspire range is finger print resistant.
In 2020, the kitchen will perfectly blend form and function, while technology will become increasingly present. The new Westinghouse Aspire range will help make daily life a little easier, offering innovations for home cooks.
Central to this is the dark stainless steel trend, which combines the premium and practical Westinghouse kitchen in a fresh new finish. Functions such as AirFry and SteamAssist, which are builtin to the new ovens, make cooking easy and reliable, and induction cooktops featuring clever BoilProtect sensors turns the heat down automatically to prevent water over-boiling*.
A kitchen should feel timeless, using design elements and classic materials that will look good today and in a decade’s time. Whether you’re doing a complete renovation or replacing a single appliance, you can take your kitchen in a fresh new direction by incorporating dark stainless steel appliances into your plans.

Here's how to bring the sleek and inspiring trend into your home

TIP 1: Contrast or complement with cabinetry
With its warmer undertones than classic stainless, dark stainless goes well with stained wood, or dark painted cabinets for a high-end yet welcoming feel. Otherwise contrast with lighter colours, like bright whites and creams, for a fresh, bright look.

TIP 2: Coordinate with dark accessories
Use dark accents in the kitchen or trim with timber. Moody pendant light fixtures can make the room more homely, while wooden counter stools with dark trim and a set of well placed monochrome vases will tie design elements together nicely.

TIP 3: Choose from one brand
One thing to note when upgrading your kitchen is, just as there are 52 shades of white, same goes for dark stainless steel finishes. For best results, buy your appliances from one brand to make sure everything is seamless. Cohesion is always in style.
