Some of the newest trends in contemporary kitchen design involve the use of universal design principles and eco-friendly materials. Contemporary kitchens often use man-made materials developed during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries such as steel, plastic, linoleum, chrome, molded plywood, laminate, acrylic, concrete, or glass. Natural materials are brought in for many modern kitchen makeovers, especially when a less industrial feel is desired. Granite, slate, stone, and wood are the most commonly used natural materials which complement a modernly decorated kitchen.
