2025 Nashville Kitchen Trends: Moody Southern Luxury
Nashville is ditching the farmhouse white for deep greens, aubergines, and speakeasy vibes.
The Nashville Shift: From Farmhouse to Speakeasy
For years, "Modern Farmhouse" (White + Shiplap) ruled Nashville. But 2025 is bringing a dramatic pivot towards darker, moodier, and more luxurious spaces.
The Look: "Moody Southern"
Nashville designers are taking the boldest color risks in the country right now.
- Cabinets: Deep, rich colors are king. Forest Green, Navy Blue, and even Aubergine (Eggplant) are replacing white perimeter cabinets.
- Hardware: Unlacquered Brass is the standard. It adds a "historic" feel that patinas over time, matching the warmth of Southern architecture.
- The Detail: High-contrast White Oak islands are used to anchor the room and prevent it from feeling like a cave.
Local Material Palette
| Surface | Trending Choice | Why? |
|---|---|---|
| Lighting | Oversized Brass | Statement pendants that act as jewelry. |
| Countertops | Quartzite | Natural stone with veining is preferred over uniform quartz. |
| Ceilings | Wallpaper / Wood | The "fifth wall" is getting treated with texture. |
